Accepted Answer

The answer of The reagents that complete the following reaction...

Question 3

The product of the reaction of acetic acid and thionyl chloride is acetyl chloride.

Accepted Answer

This is a well-known reaction in organic chemistry, where the reaction of acetic acid with thionyl chloride results in the formation of acetyl chloride. The reaction can be represented as follows: CH3COOH + SOCl2 → CH3COCl + SO2 + HCl.

Question 4

The product of the reaction of benzoic acid and sodium hydroxide is sodium benzoate.

Accepted Answer

This statement is true. When benzoic acid is reacted with sodium hydroxide, it undergoes a neutralization reaction to form sodium benzoate and water. The chemical equation for this reaction is: C6H5COOH + NaOH → NaC6H5COO + H2O.

Question 7

The product of the reaction of hexanoic acid and sodium borohydride is hexanol.

Accepted Answer

Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is a reducing agent that typically reduces aldehydes and ketones to alcohols, but it is not effective for the reduction of carboxylic acids like hexanoic acid to alcohols.

Question 11

The reagents that complete the following reaction are,

Accepted Answer

The answer of The reagents that complete the following reaction...

Question 12

The order of acidity of the following carboxylic acids is,

Accepted Answer

The order of acidity of carboxylic acids depends on the electron-withdrawing or -donating nature of the substituents attached to the carboxyl group. The more electronegative or electron-withdrawing the substituent, the more acidic the carboxylic acid. Therefore, the order of acidity from strongest to weakest is: trifluoroacetic acid > benzoic acid > acetic acid > formic acid.

Question 13

The name of the following compound is 2,2-dibromopropanedioic acid.

Accepted Answer

The prefix "di" indicates that there are two bromine atoms, and the "-oic acid" suffix indicates that it is a carboxylic acid. The "2,2-" prefix indicates that both bromine atoms are attached to the second carbon in the molecule.

Question 14

The order of acidity of the following carboxylic acids is,

Accepted Answer

The order of acidity of carboxylic acids depends on the strength of the electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups attached to the carboxyl group. Without any additional information about the structure of the carboxylic acids mentioned in the question, it is not possible to determine the order of acidity. Therefore, the statement is false.
