Question

When SODIUM ACETATE IS ADDED SODALIME​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sodium acetate in the presence of soda lime and heat, leads to the formation of methane gas and sodium carbonate. This type of reaction is called as decarboxylation reaction and as the name suggests there is a loss of a molecule of carbon dioxide from sodium acetate.

mark me as brainliest.

Answer 2

${\tt {\red {\underline{\underline {\huge {Answer}}}}}}$

The reaction of sodium acetate and sodalime gives mehtane and sodium carbonate.

${\tt {\red {\underline{\underline {\huge {How \:</p><p> it \: is \: formed}}}}}}$

When sodium acetate is treated with soda lime, decarboxylation takes place and CO2 is eliminated from the sodium acetate . The chemical reaction is as follows —

CH3COONa + NaOH --> CH4 + Na2CO3
