  3. Acetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_acid

    acetyl chloride SOCl 2 acetic acid (i) Li[AlH 4], ether (ii) H 3 O + ethanol Two typical organic reactions of acetic acid Acetic acid undergoes the typical chemical reactions of a carboxylic acid. Upon treatment with a standard base, it converts to metal acetate and water. With strong bases (e.g., organolithium reagents), it can be doubly deprotonated to give LiCH 2 COOLi. Reduction of acetic ...

    CH 2 =CH 2 + 3 O 22 CO 2 + 2 H 2 O, ΔH=−1327 kJ/mol (CH 2 CH 2)O + 2.5 O 22 CO 2 + 2 H 2 O, ΔH=−1223 kJ/mol. According to a kinetic analysis by Kilty and Sachtler, the following reactions describe the pathway leading to EO. In the first step, a superoxide (O 2 −) species is formed: [73] O 2 + Ag → Ag + O 2 −. This species ...

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12. Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another.

  7. Chemical formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula

    A chemical formula used for a series of compounds that differ from each other by a constant unit is called a general formula. It generates a homologous series of chemical formulae. For example, alcohols may be represented by the formula C n H 2n + 1 OH (n ≥ 1), giving the homologs methanol, ethanol, propanol for 1 ≤ n ≤ 3.

  8. Empirical formula - Wikipedia

    Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6), ribose (C 5 H 10 O 5), Acetic acid (C 2 H 4 O 2), and formaldehyde (CH 2 O) all have different molecular formulas but the same empirical formula: CH 2 O.This is the actual molecular formula for formaldehyde, but acetic acid has double the number of atoms, ribose has five times the number of atoms, and glucose has six times the number of atoms.

  9. Acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetate

    3 O − 2, or CH 3 COO −. Chemists often represent acetate as OAc − or, less commonly, AcO −. Thus, HOAc is the symbol for acetic acid, NaOAc for sodium acetate, and EtOAc for ethyl acetate [1] (as Ac is common symbol for acetyl group CH 3 CO [2] [3]). The pseudoelement symbol "Ac" is also sometimes encountered in chemical formulas as ...
