- 18-47 Methylparaben and propylparaben are used as preservatives in foods, beverages, and cosmetics. Show how each of these preservatives can be prepared from 4-aminobenzoic acid.arrow_forward18-31 Formic acid is one of the components responsible for the sting of biting ants and is injected under the skin by bee and wasp stings. The pain can be relieved by rubbing the area of the sting with a paste of baking soda (NaHCO3) and water, which neutralizes the acid. Write an equation for this reaction.arrow_forward18-29 Complete the equations for these acid—base reactions. (a) (b) (c) (d) (e)arrow_forward
