Determine the products of each carboxylic acid reaction. a.

Question

Accepted Answer

Hello everyone today. We are being asked to predict the product that will form for this car looks like reaction shown below. So the first thing I wanna do is we want to note which ones are acid and which ones are base. So the compounding left is our acid and Noh is our base. It's actually a very strong base. And so what the products are gonna look like with an acid base. We are essentially going to form a salt and water and that salt is going to be the deep rotated version of that acid. So after drawing out here, we can see that we have this salt here, this oxygen ion as well as this sodium to stabilize that negative charge. And we also have this water compound. So once again when we have an acid and base it always forms a salt which will denote here and water. And with that we have our answer. I hope this helped. And until next time.
