Cyclohexanol -> Adipic Acid?

Ultimately

Code: Select all

3C6H11OH + 8HNO3 = 3 (COOH)(CH2)4COOH + 8NO + 7H2O
, but the process requires several managed substages to acheive a useful yeild.

Nope; no production of hydrogen gas.

Code: Select all

(HPO4){2-}+ H{+} = (H2PO4){-}
and

Code: Select all

H3PO4= H{+} + (H2PO4){-}

Code: Select all

CaHPO4 + H3PO4 = Ca(H2PO4)2

That's not going to happen. The oxidation of ethanol produces ethanal, not ethene.

Re: Help me balance this equation

C10H10Fe+(CH3CO)2O = C12H12FeO+C14H14FeO2 is FeH2(C5H4)2 + (CH3CO)2O = FeH(C5H4)2(CH3CO) + Fe(C5H4)2(CH3CO)2 Which suggests water is a biproduct. Use aliasing : FeH2X2 + Y2O = FeHX2Y + Fe...

Re: I4O9 = I2O6 + I2 + O2

I4O9 = I2O6 + I2 + O2 Oh, this is trickery. I2O6 does not exist. I2O5 does. It is O(IO2)2 On the other side of the equation, I4O9 is I(OIO2)3 with one Iodine in oxidation state +3 and the others are in +5 (and covalently bonded to the oxygen). So one of these Iodine ...

Re: please help with redox balancing

Split into half reactions, removing spectator ions and water and its ions. Balance Oxygen using water. Balance Hydrogen using protons. Then balance the charges using electrons. Merge so that electrons cancel. Note: To make alkaline, add sufficient OH{-} on both sides to neutralise ...
