This is a catalysed oxidation reaction at the methyl (CH3-) group of toluene.
2C6H5-CH3 + 3O2 --> 2C6H5-COOH + 2H2O

Is Benzoic acid intensive or extensive?
Neither. Benzoic acid is... benzoic acid. Intensive and extensive are properties are characteristics of elements and compounds such as color, density, odor, conductivity, etc. To say benzoic acid is extensive or benzoic acid is intensive doesn't make sense.
Chemical name of salicyclic acid?
O-hydroxy benzoic acid or 2-hydroxy benzoic acid.
Is benzoic acid an organic or inorganic compound?
The formula for benzoic acid is C7H6O2. As a rule, compounds that are cheifly variants of C, H, and O are organic, as is benzoic acid.
Uses of ortho iodo benzoic acid?
Yeah, so of ortho simply iodo benzoic acid.
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
Why toluene does not react with acidic or alkaline permanganates?
Toluene reacts with acidic permanganate on heating and forms the Benzoic acid.
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
How do you convert toluene to benzoic acid?
by using kMNo4 and water
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.
How do you separate benzoic acid from a mixture of benzoic acid and toluene using extraction?
Make a solution of Sodium Hydroxide or Sodium Carbonate and do three to four solvent solvent extractions using the aqueous base and the mixture o benzoic acid and toluene. Because benzoic acid reacts with base to form the water soluble carboxylate ion, it will react and the dissolve in the aqueous solution. Upon separation of the two phases acidify the aqueous extract with dilute HCl, a white needle-like precipitate of benzoic acid will form when the solution becomes acidic. Simply filter the crystals, wash with cold water, and then recrystallize using a mixture of 50/50 water and methanol or some other suitable solvent.
Does Benzoic Acid react with Hypochlorous Acid in water and room temperature?
I assume that it will not react because benzoic acid cannot be oxidized easily by the hypochlorous acid. I would not try this at a large scale without appropriate safety measures though!
What is the balanced chemical equation of the reaction of benzoic acid and sodium bicarbonate?
C6H5COOH + NaHCO3 ===> C6H5COO-Na+ + H2O + CO2
What results from a mixture of benzoic acid to and HCL?
You will get benzoic acid as a result. The benzoic salt will gain a Hydrogen from the HCl; thus, becoming benzoic acid, and the Cl shall remain by itself in suspension if you're mixing the two together in an aqueous solution.
Which is more acidic formic acid or benzoic acid?
Benzoic Acid
How do you convert benzene to toluene?
Toluene + HNO3/H2SO4 --> p-nitrotoluene (para directed nitration) p-nitrotoluene + Zn/HCl --> p-aminotoluene (changing NO2 to NH2 by reduction) p-aminotoluene +Br2 --> bromination ortho to NH2 Remove NH2 via diazonium salt and decomposition with 1) HONO (which is NaNO2+HCl), 2) H3PO2 for the final product.
The structure of the product when benzoic acid react with sodium hyroxide?
Sodium benzoate (ionic) and water (covalent)
Is benzoic acid soluble in kerosene.?
Benzoic acid is soluble in kerosene.
