it is slightly acidic, but usually just considered neutral. The ring pulls some electron density away from the methyl group, so that is where a hydrogen would be removed.

What is a toluene diluent?
It's anhydrous toluene for nucleic acid synthesis with phosphoramidites
What happens when toluene reacts with sulfuric acid?
Even though toluene is not soluble in water, it is soluble in sulfuric acid due to its lower pka.
How do you convert toluene to benzoic acid?
by using kMNo4 and water
Why hydrochloric acid does not ionise in methylbenzene?
Methyl benzene, or toluene, does not have a lone pair of electrons and so cannot act as a base and take the hydrogen ion away from the HCl molecule.
Acidified potassium permanganate reaction with toluene equation?
toluene is benzene with CH3 reacting this with KMnO4 in acidic solution will produce a benzene with a carboxylic acid (CH3 will be oxidized)
What are the products of a toluene sulfuric acid reaction?
para-toluene sulfonic acid and ortho toluene sulfonic acid p-CH3-C6H4-SO3H and o-CH3-C6H4-SO3H
What is a toluene diluent?
It's anhydrous toluene for nucleic acid synthesis with phosphoramidites
Process of preparation of benzoic acid?
Benzoic acid is produced from toluene and oxygen. The toluene is oxidyzed and a water molecule is released, which resuls in benzoic acid source: wikipedia
Why toluene does not react with acidic or alkaline permanganates?
Toluene reacts with acidic permanganate on heating and forms the Benzoic acid.
What happens when toluene reacts with sulfuric acid?
Even though toluene is not soluble in water, it is soluble in sulfuric acid due to its lower pka.
How do you convert toluene to benzoic acid?

Why hydrochloric acid does not ionise in methylbenzene?
Methyl benzene, or toluene, does not have a lone pair of electrons and so cannot act as a base and take the hydrogen ion away from the HCl molecule.
Where does sodium benzoate come from?
Sodium benzoate is manufactured by reacting benzoic acid with sodium hydroxide. Benzoic acid is produced by partial oxydation of toluene with oxygen. There are half a dozen ways or more ways to make toluene.
Acidified potassium permanganate reaction with toluene equation?
toluene is benzene with CH3 reacting this with KMnO4 in acidic solution will produce a benzene with a carboxylic acid (CH3 will be oxidized)
How can an acid turn to base?
An acid can turn into a base if you mix a much stronger base with it! That way the base acid overpowers the acid and makes the acid a base!
Will toluene and benzoic acid react?
This is a catalysed oxidation reaction at the methyl (CH3-) group of toluene.2C6H5-CH3 + 3O2 --> 2C6H5-COOH + 2H2OI respelled your original question at 3 points! I couldn't find any 'preperation method for bezoic acid from toulene'
What best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
