Why beryllium can be easily hydrolysed?
Beryllium doesn't react with water at room temperature.
What is the chemicals which give fruits their smell?
Such compounds are mostly esters.
Do esters react with sodium carbonate?
No, but esters do react with some acids.
Are esters acids bases or neutral?
Esters are neutral compounds
How is aspirin hydrolysed to salicyclic acid in the body?
aspirin passes unchanged throught the acidic conditions of the stomach but is also hydrolysed to ethanoate ions and 2-hydroxybenzoate ions by the alkaline juices in the interstines
Can ester be hydrolysed to alcohol?
yes, in presence of base, esters can be hydrolysed to alcohol and acid.
Why does ester need to be cold when hydrolysed?
It is due to two reason !- esters are volatile and may evaporate at higher temperature, 2- at higher temperature it may be converted again into carboxylic acid and alcohol in presence of water.
Why beryllium can be easily hydrolysed?
Beryllium doesn't react with water at room temperature.
What functional group is easily hydrolyzed?
An ester group is probably the most easily hydrolyzed functional group. Especially at physiologic pH.
Why RNA can be hydrolyzed by dilute alkali but not DNA?
as DNA is more stable than RNA .So,RNA gets easily hydrolysed easily by hydrolysing phosphodiester bond.
What is the chemicals which give fruits their smell?
Such compounds are mostly esters.
What is the chemical equation for the hydrolysis of a lipid?
The most common members of the 'lipid family' are triglycerides: plant oil and fats, being 3-fold esters of three molecules of alkanoic (or alk-ene-oic) acids with one molecule of glycerol (1,2,3-propan-tri-ol). When hydrolysed these reactant are freed by de-esterfication called hydrolysis. (Other members of the lipid group are cholesterols, waxes, detergents are differently constituted, but most of them can also be hydrolysed).
CCl4 can not be hydolysed but SiCl4 undergoes hydolysis?
The main reason that CCl4 is not hydrolysed and SiCl4 is hydolysed is because SiCl4 is an ionic compound and CCl4 is a covalent compound.
Carbohydrates are hydrolysed into and absorbed as?
fatty acid
Do esters react with sodium carbonate?
No, but esters do react with some acids.
Are esters ionic?
No, esters are covalent compounds having polar character.
Why are esters unable to form hydrogen bonds with other esters?
Esters cannot form hydrogen bonds with other esters because there wouldn't be enough room on the molecules to support the hydrogen bonding (octet rule).
