  2. Potassium permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_permanganate

    Addition of concentrated sulfuric acid to potassium permanganate gives Mn 2 O 7. [76] Although no reaction may be apparent, the vapor over the mixture will ignite paper impregnated with alcohol. Potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid react to produce some ozone, which has a high oxidizing power and rapidly oxidizes the alcohol, causing it to ...

  3. Alcohol oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_oxidation

    The oxidation of primary alcohols to carboxylic acids normally proceeds via the corresponding aldehyde, which is transformed via an aldehyde hydrate (gem-diol, R-CH(OH) 2) by reaction with water. Thus, the oxidation of a primary alcohol at the aldehyde level without further oxidation to the carboxylic acid is possible by performing the reaction ...

  4. Solubility table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_table

    The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.

  5. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 6 H 6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon.

  6. In situ chemical oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_situ_chemical_oxidation

    The biggest difference between the two chemicals is that potassium permanganate is less soluble than sodium permanganate. [5] Potassium permanganate is a crystalline solid that is typically dissolved in water before application to the contaminated site. [3] Unfortunately, the solubility of potassium permanganate is dependent on temperature.

  7. List of water-miscible solvents - Wikipedia

    The following compounds are liquid at room temperature and are completely miscible with water; ... HOCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH: 1,5-Pentanediol: 111-29-5 (CH 3) 2 ...

  8. Ethylbenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylbenzene

    Ethylbenzene is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 3.It is a highly flammable, colorless liquid with an odor similar to that of gasoline.This monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon is important in the petrochemical industry as a reaction intermediate in the production of styrene, the precursor to polystyrene, a common plastic material.

  9. Aromatic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_compound

    Heteroarenes are aromatic compounds, where at least one methine or vinylene (-C= or -CH=CH-) group is replaced by a heteroatom: oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur. [3] Examples of non-benzene compounds with aromatic properties are furan, a heterocyclic compound with a five-membered ring that includes a single oxygen atom, and pyridine, a heterocyclic compound with a six-membered ring containing one ...
