(a)
Interpretation:
Structure of ester that is formed when 1 molecule of ethanol and 1 molecule of phosphoric acid reacts has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are obtained when an acid react with an alcohol. If the considered acid is a
(b)
Interpretation:
Structure of ester that is formed when 2 molecule of methanol and 1 molecule of sulfuric acid reacts has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are obtained when an acid react with an alcohol. If the considered acid is a carboxylic acid then the obtained ester is an organic ester. Same like carboxylic acids, inorganic acid also reacts with alcohol to form inorganic ester.
(c)
Interpretation:
Structure of ester that is formed when 1 molecule of ethylene glycol and 1 molecule of nitric acid reacts has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are obtained when an acid react with an alcohol. If the considered acid is a carboxylic acid then the obtained ester is an organic ester. Same like carboxylic acids, inorganic acid also reacts with alcohol to form inorganic ester.
(d)
Interpretation:
Structure of ester that is formed when 1 molecule of glycerol and 3 molecules of nitric acid reacts has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are obtained when an acid react with an alcohol. If the considered acid is a carboxylic acid then the obtained ester is an organic ester. Same like carboxylic acids, inorganic acid also reacts with alcohol to form inorganic ester.
