The answer is D.
Because addition of NaHCO3 to fresh lime juice,a double decomposition takes place thus producing two new compounds-CaCO3 and Since no gas is evolved,therefore the answer cannot be option A
Therefore D is preferable.
The correct answer is A
Because lime juice is derived from lime and lime and lemons contains citric acid with the functional group R-COOH, so it is definitely an organic acid.
D is not correct because when a reactive metal such as Na as indicated reacts with an acid displacing the replaceable hydrogen present in the acid to form it's salt and liberate hydrogen gas, a metal does react with ethanol to give metallic ethoxide and liberate hydrogen gas so in D the former isn't correct but the latter is.
A is absolutely correct because when NaHCO3 reacts with lime juice (R-COOH) it liberates CO2, and when NaHCO3 reacts with ethanol no gas gas is evolved.
The answer is D.
Because addition of NaHCO3 to fresh lime juice,a double decomposition takes place thus producing two new compounds-CaCO3 and Since no gas is evolved,therefore the answer cannot be option A
Therefore D is preferable
The answer is obviously A,try it at home get a lime and add its contents to baking soda period!!
