Could the structures below undergo a Fischer esterification reaction? Reaction scheme of benzoic acid and thionyl chloride to form an unknown product. No, the structures above cannot undergo a Fischer esterification reaction to form an ester. Yes, if the carboxylic acid is heated in the SOCl2 reagent and a small amount of H2SO4 is used as a catalyst.

a). in this case, dh> 0 and sd> 0. if t becomes larger, the term "-tds" will become more negative. at some point, it is possible that -dts will be more negative than the dh is positive, and the reaction will become spontaneous. this is probably the correct answer, but you should look at all of the other possibilities and make sure of that.

they are called fossil fuels
