See answers Angella Angella There is no difference between C2H6O and C2H5OH.Both are the same but in the latter one, 'OH' is specifically mentioned so as to convey that 'OH' together represents a single functional group i.e. alcohol.C2H6O and C2H5OH both represents the compound, Ethanol. shubham689 shubham689 There is no difference between them both are ethanol

A compound X (C₃H₆O) reacts with sodium to release a gas. On oxidation, it forms Y (C₃H₆O₂), which reacts with ethanol to form an ester Z (C₅H₁₀O₂) ha … ving a fruity smell. Another compound P (C₂H₄O₂) reacts with X to give Q (C₅H₁₀O₂), also an ester. Z and Q on hydrolysis give back their respective acids and alcohols. If X, Y, Z, P, and Q are all placed in separate test tubes, a student performs the following reactions: Tube 1: Add Na → gas is released Tube 2: Add Na → no gas Tube 3: Add Na → no gas Tube 4: Add water → conducts electricity Tube 5: Add water → does not conduct electricity Then the student arranges the compounds in increasing order of boiling points and mistakenly mixes Z and Q in an acid hydrolysis reaction, expecting only X and P to form. Questions: (a) Identify X, Y, Z, P, Q using IUPAC names and functional groups. (b) Write all possible chemical reactions including: Sodium reactions Esterifications Oxidation reactions Hydrolysis reactions (c) Predict the observations for the 5 test tubes, explaining why conductivity or gas is produced. (d) Correct the order of increasing boiling points. Justify chemically. (e) Predict the products if Z + Q undergo hydrolysis together. Explain why the student’s expectation is wrong. (f) Explain the differences in chemical reactivity between acids, alcohols, and esters observed here. 2O3 (g) ←→ 3O2 (g) At 300 K, ozone is 50% dissociated.
