Question

List three different chemical reactions showing the conversion of ethanoic acid with sodium ethanoate

Answer 1

The three chemical reactions are as follows ---

1) When strong base sodium hydroxide reacts with ethanoic acid, it gives salt sodium ethanoate and water

NaOH + CH3COOH -----> CH3COONa + H2O

2) When sodium carbonate reacts with ethanoic acid it gives salt sodium ethanoate , carbon dioxide and water

2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 ----> 2CH3COONa + H2O + CO2

3) When sodium bicarbonate reacts with ethanoic acid it gives salt sodium ethanoate , carbon dioxide and water

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 ----> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
