Imine formation from an aldehyde and an amine proceeds reversibly under slightly acidic conditions. The reaction is reversible due to acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the imine. Imine formation generates an equivalent of water. Given these facts, explain why the imine can be isolated from the reaction mixture.

Using this reversible reaction, answer the questions below: n2o4 2no2 (colorless) (reddish-brown) -as the temperature increased, what happened to the n2o4 concentration? -was the formation of reactants or products favored by the addition of heat? -which reaction is exothermic? right to left or left to right? -if the change of enthalpy of this reaction when proceeding left to right is 14 kcal, which chemical equation is correct? n2o4 2no2 + 14 kcal n2o4 2no2, hr = +14 kcal n2o4 + 14 kcal 2no2 n2o4 2no2, hr = -14 kcal
