oxidation of alcohol results in the formation of various carbonyl compounds, depending upon the structure of alcohol. For example, oxidation of secondary alcohol results in the formation of ketone, while that of primary alcohol forms aldehyde and further oxidation forms carboxylic acids.
What else can I help you with?
Does alcohol do anything good for you?
In small quantities, alcohol is an antioxidant (in that it is easily oxidised, so other things aren't).
What substance is formed when alcohol is oxidised by the air?
When alcohol is oxidized by the air, it forms acetaldehyde, which is a toxic compound. This oxidation process usually happens when alcohol is exposed to air for an extended period of time, resulting in a change in flavor and quality of the alcohol.
WHAT IS THE OXIDATION PRODUCT OF 2-BUTANOL?
Butan-1-ol, which is a primary alcohol, will be oxidised to butanoic acid. Butan-2-ol, which is a secondary alcohol, will be oxidised to butanone.
Alcohol is this process affected by temperature?
Yes, temperature affect the concentration of alcohol. Alcohol is made up of ethanol, high temperature oxidised ethanol to ethanoic acid so the concentration of alcohol decrease.
What happens when chlorine is mixed with sodium chloride?
Nothing at all. The sodium is fully oxidised in sodium chloride and chlorine gas has no effect. +++ "... fully oxidised..." Really? There is no oxygen in the compound, which is simply NaCl.
What is the aldehydic wine?
Aldehydic is a condition when the wine have been spoiled and oxidised.
What happens when yeast turns into alcohol?
its a drink then nothing happens Note - Yeast never turns into alcohol, yeast turns sugar into alcohol, thus alcohol is the yeast's waste product of metabolism.
What happens if you break alcohol probation by getting an MIC?
oh no you ain't have ya! ive been on death row for a year after i did that
What happens If absolute alcohol is consumed?
Alcohol of that strength is hygroscopic, it will kill you.
Is oxidised wine injurious to health?
No oxidised wine will not harm you. Some cultures even enjoy oxidised wines because they take on a sherry like flavor. When a wine oxidises it just means that unnecessary air has entered into the bottle. This can happen many ways; cork has come slightly lose and air has entered the bottle or, the bottles haven't been properly stored.
Can you swim in an oxidised bracelet?
no
Which alcohol contains four carbon atoms and can be oxidised to a ketone?
Butan-1-ol is an alcohol that contains four carbon atoms and can be oxidized to produce butanone, also known as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). This reaction typically involves the removal of two hydrogen atoms from the alcohol to form the ketone.
