Best answer

The chemical reaction equation between nicotine and tartaric acid in vape: C₁₀H₁₄N₂ + C₄H₆O₆ → C₁₀H₁₄N₂·C₄H₅O₆↓ + H₂O

Answer analysis: This is due to the chemical reaction between tartaric acid molecules and nicotine, forming a precipitate of Nicotine Tartrate that is insoluble in water. This reaction process can be expressed by a chemical equation as C₁₀H₁₄N₂ + C₄H₆O₆ → C₁₀H₁₄N₂·C₄H₅O₆↓ + H₂O

Among them, C₁₀H₁₄N₂ represents nicotine molecules, C₄H₆O₆ represents tartaric acid molecules, and the arrow "↓" represents the generated precipitate.

Nicotine and Propylene glycol are the main ingredients of vape.

Chemicals produced during use of e cigarettes: nicotine, Propylene glycol, benzene, formaldehyde, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, cadmium, Acetaldehyde, toluene, hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, Diacetyl, Pyridine, Styrene, carbon monoxide, Diethylene glycol, 2-naphthalene Amines, Nitrosamines, etc.
