This problem handles<em> boiling-point elevation</em>, which means we will use the formula:

ΔT = Kb * m

Where ΔT is the difference of Temperature between boiling points of the solution and the pure solvent (Tsolution - Tsolvent). Kb is the ebullioscopic constant of the solvent (2.64 for benzene), and m is the molality of the solution.

Knowing that benzene's boiling point is 80.1°C, we <u>solve for m</u>:

Tsolution - Tsolvent = Kb * m

80.23 - 80.1 = 2.64 * m

m = 0.049 m

We use the definition of molality to <u>calculate the moles of azulene</u>:

0.049 m = Xmoles azulene / 0.099 kgBenzene

Xmoles azulene = 4.87 x10⁻³ moles azulene

We use the mass and the moles of azulene to<u> calculate its molecular weight</u>:

0.640 g / 4.875 x10⁻³ mol = 130.28 g/mol

<em>A molecular formula that would fulfill that molecular weight</em> is C₁₀H₁₀. So that's the result of solving this problem.

The actual molecular formula of azulene is C₁₀H₈.

Which of the following statements are True about the experimental process used in the Diels Alder reaction?
vovikov84 [41]

Here we have to get the correct statements among the given, applicable for Diels-Alder reaction.

The true statements in case Diels-Alder reaction are-

1. An excess of Maleic anhydride is used.

2. The I.R. of the products are indistinguishable.

The Diels-Alder reaction is the most is the most important cyclo-addition reaction in organic chemistry. These are addition reactions in which ring systems are formed without eliminating any compounds.

There remains one diene and one dienophile. The reaction is reversible in nature and requires elevated temperature to obtain its transition state. The reaction rate become faster in certain condition like using of polar solvents.

Among the given statements the following statements are true-

1. An excess of maleic anhydride (the most effective di-enophile) is used to process the reaction in forward direction.

2. The products obtain in this reaction are stereoisomers thus are indistinguishable by infrared spectroscopy (IR).

The statements which are not true for the Diels-Alder reaction:

3. The re-crystallization of the products by any polar solvent like methanol is not feasible as it will cause the retro reaction due to stability of the transition state in polar solvent.

4. Cleaning of glassware are compulsory for any reaction it is not specifically true for Diels-Alder reaction.

5. The reaction occurs at elevated temperature thus flame is required.

OverLord2011 [107]
I believe the answer is sugar crystals with stirring at 15 degrees Celsius. 
Solubility is the maximum amount of a substance that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature. There are two major factors that affect solubility are temperature and pressure. Temperature affects solubility of both solids and gases, but pressure only affects the solubility of gases. Increasing the surface area of solutes also increases the solubility.
