(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.

- Enumerate the uses of esters in pharmacy.arrow_forwardWhat chemical test will you use to differentiate acetone from dibenzalacetone?arrow_forwardEster compounds often have a sweet, pleasant odor. Many characteristic fruit scents are largely due to the natural presence of one or more ester compounds. As such, artificial scents for foods are often composed of complex mixtures of various esters. The exact identity and ratio of ingredients that compose a particular scent are closely guarded secrets in the food and fragrance industry. Suppose that you are a chemist working for a company that i creating a new line of air fresheners. The company is considering three scents: apple, pear, and pineapple. The project manager has asked you to prepare the ester compounds that are largely responsible for these scents. The structural formulas for these ester compounds are shown here: Alcohols for Air Freshener Project Molar mass Density Cost, per (g/mL) Reagent (g/mol) 1.00 L methanol 32.04 0.79 $46.20 ethanol 46.07 0.79 $112.00 1-propanol 60.10 0.80 $72.70 1-butanol 74.12 0.81 $72.60 Use the structural formulas of the alcohols and…arrow_forward
