Question

QUESTION 15:

The conversion of acetophenone, C₆H₅COCH₃, to benzoic acid, C₆H₅COOH, is accomplished by the use of which oxidizing agent?

	A.	Ag(NH3)2+
	B.	O3
	C.	NaOI (I2 in NaOH)
	D.	RCO3H
	E.	Cu++

QUESTION 16:

Choose the correct statement:

	A.	Hexanal has a much lower boiling point than that of hexanol.
	B.	Hexanol is less soluble than 2-hexanone in water.
	C.	Hexanal is more soluble than heptane in water.
	D.	B and C.
	E.	A, B, and C

Answer 1

15)The most famous reaction for carrying this process out is HALOFORM REACTION

FINAL ANSWER ==NaOI (I2 in NaOH)

16)Hexanal has less boiling point then hexanol so boiling point of aldehyde and alcohol physical properties

1-Hexanol is an organic alcohol with a six carbon chain and a condensed structural formula of CH3(CH2)5OH. This colorless liquid is slightly soluble in water, but miscible with ether and ethanol.

2-Hexanone is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sharp odor. It dissolves very easily in water and is miscible in ethanol, methanol, and benzene. 2-Hexanone evaporates easily into the air as a vapor

Hexaldehyde appears as a clear colorless liquid with a pungent odor. Flash point 90°F. Less dense than water and insoluble in water.

It is a volatile organic compound and an alkane. N-heptane is a clear colorless liquids with a petroleum-like odor. Flash point 25°F. Less dense than water and insoluble in water.

We come to a conclusion that all the given statements are correct

FINAL ANSWER ==E option

Remember these are physical properties need to remember
