Question

product formed when two molecules of benzaldehyde react with sodium hydroxide

Answer 1

Explanation:

Benzaldehyde will undergo Cannizzaro reaction on treatment with 50% NaOH to produce benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid as it does not contain a hydrogen. The Cannizzaro reaction is a redox reaction in which two molecules of an aldehyde are reacted to produce a primary alcohol and a carboxylic acid using a hydroxide base.
