Procedure
➢ Using a spatula, sodium carbonate is added to ethanoic acid in a test tube
Result: Effervescence/Fizzing/Bubbles are produced that when bubbled through limewater will turn the limewater milky white
What gas is produced when sodium carbonate to ethanoic acid?
Carbon dioxide – only carbon dioxide turns Limewater milky
Write a balanced equation for the reaction of ethanoic acid and sodium carbonate
2CH2COOH + NaCO3 → 2CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
Ethanoic acid + sodium carbonate → sodium ethanoate
Acid + carbonate → salt + H2O + CO2
Write a balanced equation to show why carbon dioxide turns limewater milky white
CO2 + Ca(OH)2 → CaCO3 + H2O
Ca(OH)2: → limewater
CaCO3: → calcium carbonate
Name the organic product formed in this reaction
Sodium ethanoate - (CH,COONa)
