Answer:
The general preparation of esters( for example ethyl ethanoate) is through a process known as ESTERIFICATION.
Explanation:
The formation of an ester by the reaction between an alkanol and an acid is known as esterification. This reaction is extremely slow and reversible at room temperature, and is catalyzed by a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
In the preparation of one of the simpler esters known as ETHYL ETHANOATE the reactants include ethanol(an alcohol) and glacial ethanoic acid(a carboxylic acid) in the presence of concentrated tetraoxosulphate VI acid as a CATALYST. Note that, a catalyst is any substance that is able to increase the rate of a chemical reaction.
The mixture is warmed in a water bath( hot but not boiling) for about 25 minutes. The mixture is poured into a beaker partially filled with a sodium or calcium chloride to remove interacted ethanol. The ethyl ETHANOATE floats on the mixture as oily globules.

Therefore the last step in the scientific method is proposing a hypothesis or obtaining a conclusion
It’s definitely magnesium but it may not be
The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇
The molecular formula : C₁₀Cl₃₅

Given
8.81 g Carbon
91.2 g Chlorine
Molar Mass: 1362.5 g/mol
Required
The empirical formula and molecular formula
Solution
Mol ratio :
C = 8.81 g : 12.011 g/mol =0.733
Cl = 91.2 g : 35,453 g/mol = 2..572
Divide by 0.733
C : Cl = 1 : 3.5 = 2 : 7
The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇
(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula
(C₂Cl₇)n = 1362.5
(2x12.011+7x35.453)n=1362.5
(272.193)n=1362.5
n = 5
Answer:
Explanation:
<em>Heat</em> is a kind of energy.
The <em>kinetic theory </em>relates the heat with the movement of the particles: the more the particles move, the larger the kinetic energy of the system. The kinetic theory states that heat is the kinetic energy of the particles, atoms or molecules, in a substance, that is transferred from a substance at higher temperature to other substance at lower temperature.
Based on that principle, the kinetic theory explains the changes of phases of the substances in terms of the motion of the particles: the hotter an object the faster the particles move, the more energetic the particles are, and they occupy more space. Thus, when a solid is heated, the particles move faster and it can pass to liquid or gaseous state.
