The process in which an organic acid and an alcohol react to form an ester and water is known as esterification. Ethyl butanoate

(C3H7COOC2H5) an ester is formed when the alcohol ethanol (C2H5OH) and butanoic acid (C3H7COOH) are heated in the presence of sulfuric acid.C2H5OH(l) + C3H7COOH(l) C3H7COOC2H5(l) + H2O(l)Determine the mass of ethyl butanoate produced if 6.00 mol of ethanol is used.

Answer:

697 g

Explanation:

Ethanol (C₂H₅OH) and butanoic acid (C₃H₇COOH) react to form ethyl butanoate (C₃H₇COOC₂H₅) and water (H₂O).

C₂H₅OH + C₃H₇COOH → C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ + H₂O

The molar ratio of C₂H₅OH to C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ is 1:1. The moles of C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ produced from 6.00 moles of C₂H₅OH are:

6.00 mol C₂H₅OH × (1 mol C₃H₇COOC₂H₅/1 mol C₂H₅OH) = 6.00 mol C₃H₇COOC₂H₅

The molar mass of C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ is 116.16 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 6.00 mol is:

6.00 mol × (116.16 g/mol) = 697 g

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Average rate of decomposition = 3.68 x 10⁻³ mol/min

Explanation:

CH₃NC (g) → CH₃CN (g)

Average rate of decomposition = [CH₃NC]/Δt

[CH₃NC] = initial [CH₃NC] - final [CH₃NC]

[CH₃NC] = 0.200 mol - 0.108 mol

[CH₃NC] = 0.092 mol

Average rate of decomposition = 0.092 mol / 25 min

Average rate of decomposition = 3.68 x 10⁻³ mol/min

Identify the compounds below as a brønsted-lowry acid or lewis acid by clicking and dragging it into the correct column
Vesna [10]
There are many types of acid or bases. Based on the Bronsted-Lowry definition,

* A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor
* A Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor

Take this reaction for example:
HCl(aq)+ N<span>H</span>₃(aq)→N<span>H</span>⁴⁺(aq)+C<span>l</span>⁻(aq<span>)
</span>
HCl donates a proton, so it is a Bronsted-Lowry acid. Consequently, ammonia accepts this proton, so it is the Bronsted-Lowry base.

OLga [1]

Answer is: A. Chemical energy to electromagnetic energy and thermal energy.  

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Mg(s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO(s) + energy.

This is chemical change (chemical reaction), because new substance (magnesium oxide MgO) is formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change (exothermic reaction because energy is released).

Chemical changes (chemical synthesis) is when a substance combines with another (in this example magnesium and oxygen) to form a new substance.
