Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To identify the reactant which reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid
Concept introduction:
Nucleophiles are those species which are electron rich in nature. They are negatively charged. Carboxylate ion is a very good nucleophile. So, it can reacts with dilute
(b)
Interpretation:
To identify the reactant that undergoes hydrolysis.
Concept introduction:
The structure of ester is,
The ester undergoes hydrolysis reaction to form carboxylic acid and alcohol. The hydrolysis reaction of ester can be performed in both acidic and basic medium.
(c)
Interpretation:
To identify the reactant that neutralizses dilute NaOH.
Concept introduction:
The reaction of an acid and base is called neutralization reaction. The products of neutralization reaction are salt and water. So, the reactant that can neutralize
