Question

Complete the reactions CH3 CH2 OH Conc. H2SO4 upon 170°C(2)CH3 COOH+C2 H5 OH Conc. H2SO4 (3)CH3 CH2 OH AlkalineKMnO4 upon Acidic K2 Cr2 O7(4)CH3 CH2 OH+Na(5)CH4+O2

Answer 1

1-

CH3CH2OH in presence of conc. H2SO4 at 170°C gives out C2H4 (ethene) and water. H2SO4 acts as dehydrating agent.

2

CH3COOH and C2H5OH in presence of conc. H2SO4 gives CH3COOC2H5 amd water. Here ethanol and ethanoic acid react to form ethyl ethanoate, an ester.

3

CH3CH2OHin presence of alk. KMnO4 which is an oxidizing agent gives CH3COOH .

4

CH3CH2OH and Na gives sodium ethoxide CH3CH2ONa and H2.

5

Ch4 and 2O2 give Co2 and 2 h2o
