2CH3,COOH+xCa→ Ca (OCOCH3)2 +H2O. Calculate value of "x".
Correct answer: A. 1
- A. 1
- B. 3
- C. 2
- D. 4
Explanation
Option A is correct. Ca exists in the free form as Ca+2 so on reaction it has tendency to give two electrons to make two bonds.Since 2 moles of carboxylic acid are used so they shoul need only one mole of Ca+2 because Ca+2 itself has tendency to mae two bonds.2CH3COOH+1Ca+2 → Ca-(OCOCH3)2Only one mole of Ca is needed Hence the value of x is 1.
