Does methanol react with acetic acid?
Yes it does. It produces methyl acetate and water.
Balanced equation for methanol and water?
Methanol and water do not react they just form a very stable solution.
Is gel make when magnesium methoxide reaction with 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.
From ethanol and methanol which is more soluble in water?
Methanol
Why is methanol more acidic than water?
Methanol is not acidic, it is not dissociable.
Why does methanol show an exothermic reaction with water at room temperature while it gives an endothermic reaction with water in cold conditions?
Methanol does not react with water. Mixing them is exothermic.
What is form the reaction between methanol and ethanoic acid?
They react in presence of sulfuric acid and form methyl acetate and water.EQUATION:CH3COOH + CH3OH -----> CH3COOCH3 + H2Oacetic acid methanol methyl acetate water
Does methanol react with acetic acid?
Yes it does. It produces methyl acetate and water.
Balanced equation for methanol and water?
Methanol and water do not react they just form a very stable solution.
Would the alkoxide form if an hydroxide was dissolved in methanol?
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.
Is gel make when magnesium methoxide reaction with 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.
From ethanol and methanol which is more soluble in water?
Methanol
Why does methonal dissolve in methanol and not water?
There's no such thing as "methonal." There is "methanol," which easily dissolves into water.
What is the compound formed after plunging a heated copper wire into a methanol?
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.
Why is methanol more acidic than water?
Methanol is not acidic, it is not dissociable.
Is methanol soluble with water cyclohexane and alcohol?
Yes, methanol miscible.
Methanol CH3OH would act like NaCl or like glucose?
Methanol, glucose and sodium chloride are very different compounds and they react different.
