Explanation of Solution
Ketones can be prepared by the oxidation reaction of secondary alcohol. On the other hand, primary alcohols on oxidation with weak oxidant give aldehyde and with strong oxidant give carboxylic acid. No product is obtained by the oxidation of tertiary alcohol.
Generally, primary alcohols on oxidation give aldehyde. However, in the presence of excess oxidizing agent, aldehyde further oxidizes to carboxylic acid. Therefore, the product formed when

- Kinetics and thermodynamics H+ catatylzes the esterification reaction of alcohols with carboxylic acids. Describe at least two ways the addition of H+ can increase the rate of the reaction. based on the imagearrow_forwardDESCRIPTION Aldehydes and ketones are organic compounds which incorporate a carbonyl functional group, ??=??. Alcohol can be synthesized by the reduction of aldehydes and ketones. The reduction of formaldehyde forms methanol while the other aldehydes produce primary alcohols. Moreover, secondary alcohols can be produced from the reduction of ketones. Aldehydes and ketones can be reduced by hydride agents’ reaction, catalytic hydrogenation and Grignard reagents reduction. Heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation is the simplest method for the reduction of aldehydes and ketones into the corresponding alcohol, which is in huge demand. At present, metal catalysts are widely used in industry due to their high activity and low cost. TASK As a process engineer in a chemical manufacturing company, your team has been assigned to prepare the proposal on the process and suitable design of a reactor for catalytic hydrogenation of liquid aldehyde OR ketone into the desired alcohol based on the current…arrow_forwardWhat reagents are used in the esterification of Alcohols and Phenols? a.Write the reaction involved in Primary Alcohol (Ethanol) and Acetyl Chloride b.
