Methanol does not react with water.
They react in presence of sulfuric acid and form methyl acetate and water.EQUATION:CH3COOH + CH3OH -----> CH3COOCH3 + H2Oacetic acid methanol methyl acetate water
It depends on what you added to the methanol before you put the heated copper wire into the methanol. The heated copper wire acted as a catalyst to speed up the reaction between the methanol and the other substance. Copper itself does not react with methanol.
Yes it does. It produces methyl acetate and water.
Methanol, glucose and sodium chloride are very different compounds and they react different.
Methanol and water do not react they just form a very stable solution.
Crickets do in fact react to caffeine when they ingest it. Caffeine is a stimulant so the crickets will act energized.
Caffeine is a diuretic which causes you to lose more fluid from the tissues.
Methanol does not react with water. Mixing them is exothermic.
No. Alkoxide ions are stronger bases than hydroxide ions. The only way of making an alkoxide is by reacting a hihgly reactive metal such as sodium with the corresponding alcohol (react sodium with methanol to produce sodium methoxide). In water sodium methoxide will react to produce sodium hydroxide and methanol.
No. Magnesium methoxide will react with water to form a gel. The gel is actually a cross-linked Magnesium hydroxide structure in methanol. Magnesium methoxide is typically sold/stored in dry methanol to protect the chemical as it is incredibly hygroscopic.
Zinc methoxide and acetic acid react together to form methanol and zinc acetate
