howwillyouobyain ? Giveequationsonly : (a) methanefromacetone (b)ethanefromacetoneacid . ( c)methane and ethane from sodium acetate,

Answer»

SOLUTION :(a) (i) `UNDERSET("Acetne ")(CH_(3)COOH_(3))+4[O]to underset("Acetic acid ")(CH_(3)COOH+CO_(2)+H_(2)O)`
(ii) `CH_(3)COOH+NaOH to underset("sodiumacetate")(CH_(3)COONA)+H_(2)O`
(iii)`CH_(3)COONa+NaOH underset(DELTA)overset(CaO)to underset("Methane ")(CH_(4))+ Na_(2)CO_(3)`
(b) (i)`underset("Acetic acid ")(CH_(3)COOH+NaOH)to underset("sodium acetate ")(CH_(3)COONa)+H_(2)O`
(ii)`underset("sodiumacetate ")(2CH_(3)C OONa+2H_(2)O)overset("Electrolsis")to underset("Ethane")(CH_(3)-CH_(3))+2CO_(2)+2NaOH+H_(2)`
(c )Applya (iii)and b (ii) EQUATIONS forobtainning methaneand ethanerespectively.
