Assertion (A): Sodium acetate on Kolbe's electrolysis gives ethane. Reason (R): Methyl free radical is formed at cathode.
- A Both and are true and is a correct explanation for
- B Both and are true but is not a correct explanation for
- C is true, is false
- D is false, is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) is true, is false
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Sodium acetate CH3COONa on Kolbe's electrolysis gives ethane C2H6. The sodium acetate dissociates as - CH3COONa⇌CH3COO-+Na+ At anode: 2CH3COO-→-2e-2CH3COO∙→2CH3∙+2CO2↑ H3C∙+CH3→CH3-CH3↑∙ At cathode:…
