Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: For the solution of acetylacetone in several solvents, the observed variation in enol content is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

In polar solvents, the lone pair involved in hydrogen bonding with solvent, so not or less available to hydrogen bond.

Solvents affects the relative stability of enol form.

Enol form gets stabilized by internal hydrogen bonding.

Benzoic acid and water were added to the test tube labeled "b.a." After stirring the mixture, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) vas added until the solid disappeared. Finally, hydrochloric acid was added drop by drop until blue litmus paper turned red. The solid present in the test tube after the addition of HCI is most likely: benzoic acid benzyl acetate O benzyl chloride sodium benzoate
