Write equation for reaction of eugenol with sodium hydroxide and explain why the product is soluble in water?
Wiki User

Eugenol acts as an acid, NaOH acts as the base. NaOH strips a proton from eugenol, forming a salt, Na(eugenol(minus)H) and water.

Explain what a coefficient in a balanced chemical equation represents?
The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the amount of moles of each substance involved in the reaction. On a smaller level, it also represents the amount of particles that have to collide or are produced in the reaction. Consider the following example: CH4(g) + 2O2(g) (arrow) 2H2O(l) + CO2(g) The coefficent behind oxygen in the reactants means that 2 molecules of oxygen have to collide with 1 molecules of methane to react. The coefficients in the products mean that this reaction produces 2 molecules of water and 1 molecule of carbon dioxide.
Explain how a balanced equation demonstrates the law of mass?
A balanced equation specifies the same total number(s) of each type of atom present in both the reactants (left side of the equation) and the products (right side of the equation.) The average mass of each type of atom is constant in most circumstances*, so that the same numbers of the same types of atoms will constitute the same mass on each side of the equation, demonstrating the law of conservation of mass. __________________________________ *When only a very small number of atoms are considered, the mass may vary due to the existence of isotopes. However, even then, the isotopic composition of the actual atoms involved in the reaction is not changed by chemical reaction, so that the mass balance still is preserved.

What is a purpose of a chemical equation?
A chemical equation lets humans explain a chemical reaction. When the same reaction occurs repeatedly, the equation serves to remind us of what happened in the reaction.

Explain why calcium hydroxide can be used in this way?
Calcium hydroxide is used to test for carbon dioxide because the product of the reaction, calcium carbonate, is insoluble, and easily visible.
What does a word equation or a chemical reaction tell you?
I think that a chemical equation tells a chemist that substances you start with and substances you end with
How does nuclear reaction occur in the sun explain with a chemical equation?
can't be explained in chemical equation as it is nuclear. reaction is fusion of ionized hydrogen nuclei into ionized helium nuclei. every other hydrogen nucleus transforms from a proton to a neutron in the process.
What is use of magnesium hydroxide?
explain what is meant by the suspension of magnesium hydroxide
What salt would form from a reaction between hydrochloric acid and HCI and calcium hydroxide and Ca OH 2 explain your answer?
Well it forms a hard white low souluable solid harder that salt
Can combination reaction be oxidation reaction Explain?
No
Write the balanced equation for Aluminum hydroxide and sodium nitrate react to produce aluminum nitrate and sodium hydroxide thank you and please explain?
Al(OH)3 + 3NaNO3 >> Al(NO3)3 + 3NaOH This is a double displacement reaction between metals ( Aluminum is a transition metal, but has only a 3+ oxidation state. ) and polyatomic ions of negative charge. Both are 1- in charge. Sodium is 1+ in charge. This is why the atoms are arranged as they are with the polyatomic ions enclosed in parentheses where needed. Remember, botgh sides of the equation musr contain the same number of atoms. Count carefully and you will see this is the case.
As the equation is written which element is not in balance Explain?
An equation written may or may not be balanced. It is balanced if the number of elements on both sides of the arrow, that is before and after the reaction, is equal. Sometimes the number of elements is not the same on both sides of the arrow, then we need to balance the equation. This is done in accordance to the law of conservation of mass which states that the mass of a substance does not get destroyed or created due to a chemical reaction.
What happens in a reaction between calcium carbonate and acetic acid?
Answer2CH3COOH(aq)+1Ca(OH)2(s)---2H2O(l)+1Ca(CH3COO)2(aq)Can also be written as2 HC2H302 (aq) + 1 Ca(OH)2 (aq) --> 2 H20 (l) + Ca(C2H302)2 (s)I had a question in my chemistry class that was stated: "Write a balanced chemical reaction from the following word equation: Acetic acid is neutralized with aqueous calcium hydroxide."Writing acetic acid in the second form shown makes it easier to see what salt will be formed after the neutralization.
