Question

Need for two balanced chemical equations?

I am in need of these two equations which I however do not know how they react. If anyone could help, it is greatly appreciated :)

"Formation of products by heating a solid mixture of calcium propanoate and soda lime"

"Formation of a conjugate acid-base pair by reaction of hydrogen chloride (acting as an acid) with anhydrous ethanoic acid."

Thanks! (:

Answer 1

Calcium propanoate or calcium propionate has the formula Ca(C2H5COO)2 . . . try using your textbook to look up the chemical formulas for the other reactants involved in these equations. . . such as hydrogen chloride and anhydrous ethanoic acid. Then research how these compounds interact with each other, for example, learn what a conjugate acid-base pair is. . .
