Question
Chapter 9.1, Problem 1P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The formation of acetylene by the reaction of calcium carbide with water is to be shown using curved arrows.
Concept introduction:
Calcium carbide is the salt of calcium of doubly negative carbide ion.
Carbide ion is strongly basic and thus abstracts protons.
The carbide ion in a molecule of calcium carbide accepts two protons from water and forms acetylene and calcium hydroxide by combining hydroxide ions from water with calcium ion.
