Question - phenol and sodium hydroxide

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the kinetic rate constant and reaction enthalpy for the reaction between phenol and sodium hydroxide. The original poster seeks specific values for these parameters and has already searched through various scientific resources without success. A response suggests that the deprotonation of phenol by sodium hydroxide occurs rapidly, limited primarily by diffusion rates. The conversation highlights the challenge of finding precise kinetic data for this specific reaction.

Question -- phenol and sodium hydroxide

Hallo,

I am searching the kinetic rate constant and the reaction enthalpy for reaction between phenol and sodium hydroxide.

Does sbdy has those two values or knows where to find them?

I tried google science directc etc...

Thanks

Wow. How fast does a strong base deprotonate a weak acid? About as fast as diffusion will allow is my guess.
 

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
