उत्तर
Acetic acid can be converted to methane in the following steps:
Step 1: Ethanoic acid is treated with NaOH to obtain sodium ethanoate salt and water.
\[\ce{\underset{Ethanoic acid}{CH3COOH} + NaOH -> \underset{Sodium ethanoate}{CH3COONa} + H2O}\]
Step 2: Sodium ethanoate is heated strongly with soda lime (NaOH + CaO) to obtain methane and S.
\[\ce{CH3COONa_{(s)} + NaOH_{(s)} -> \underset{Methane}{CH4} + \underset{Sodium carbonate}{Na2CO3}}\]
