Predict how the equilibrium will shift (to the left, to the right or no change) with each of the following stresses: a. 2H2 (g) + 2NO (g) → N2 (g) + 2H2O (g) i. Increase [H2] ii. Decrease [NO] iii. Decrease the pressure (by increasing the volume) b. CO (g) + 1/2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 283 kJ i. Decrease temperature ii. Increase pressure (by adding He (g)) c. H2O (l) → H + (aq) + OH− (aq) i. Add NaOH d. 4NH3 + 5O2 (g) → 4NO (g) + 6H2O (g) + energy i. Increase temperature ii. Remove NO (g) e. Fe3O4 (s) + 4H2 (g) ↔ 3Fe (s) + 4H2O (g) i. adding more H2 to the mixture ii. adding more Fe (s) iii. removing H2 iv. adding a catalyst

What would be the difference in reactivity if ethyl 3-methylbenzoate was treated in a reduction with NaBH4 vs LiAlH4? I know that NaBH4 is only powerful enough to reduce ketones and aldehydes, and ethyl 3-methylbenzoate has a ketone group, but I am confused as to how different LAH would be?

Cyclohexanol is converted to cyclohexanone using hypochlorous acid. Excess hypochlorous acid is removed by adding sodium bisulfite. The aqueous reaction mixture is then saturated with sodium chloride and placed in a separatory funnel with methylene chloride (dichloromethane). Refer to the density table found here if needed. The boxes in the diagram represent the layers of the separatory funnel. Place the labels in the appropriate box.
Solvent | Density (g/mL) |
Acetone | 0.79 |
Benzene | 0.88 |
Chloroform | 1.50 |
Dichloromethane | 1.33 |

In: Chemistry
Which of the following is a redox reaction? More than one answer may be correct.
HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) → H2O(l) + KBr(aq) SO3(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO4(aq)
HBr(aq) + Na2S(aq) → NaBr(aq) + H2S(g)
NH4+(aq) + 2 O2(g) → H2O(l) + NO3–(aq) + 2 H+(aq)
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2 NaCl(s)
None of the above are redox reactions.
