The sulfuric acid–catalyzed reaction of isopentyl alcohol with acetic acid to form isopentyl acetate is performed. This reaction

does not proceed to completion. After the reaction is heated under reflux for an hour, the product mixture is washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, and the organic layer is thoroughly dried. A distillation of the organic layer is then performed. Given the boiling points listed below, select the compound that will distill first.
Compound Boiling point, ℃
acetic acid 118
isopentyl acetate 142
isopentyl alcohol 130
sulfuric acid water 290

Answer:

The correct option is acetic acid

Explanation:

Distillation is the process of separating a mixture of substances based on differences in boiling points. During distillation, the compound with the lowest/least boiling point is distilled and collected first and then the one with the next least boiling point and it goes on like that.

From the explanation above, <u>acetic acid has the least boiling point (in the organic layer) with 118°C and thus will distill first</u>. This is then followed by isopentyl alcohol (130°C) and then isopentyl acetate (142°C) and finally sulfuric acid water (290°C).

Consider isotopes ions protons and electrons. how many of these did dalton not discuss in his atomic theory?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: He did not discuss about any of these.

Explanation: Dalton proposed some of the postulates for his atomic theory. They are:

1) Matter is made up of atoms which are not divisible.

2) Atoms of different elements combine in a fixed ratio to form compounds.

3) The atomic properties of given element are same including mass. This states that all the atoms of an element have same mass but the atoms of different elements have different masses.

4) No atoms are either created or destroyed during a chemical reaction.

5) Atoms of an element are identical in mass, size and other chemical and physical properties.

As it is visible from the postulates, he only discussed only about the atoms but not subatomic particles or isotopes.

What volume in milliliters of 6.0 M NaOH is needed to prepare 175mL of 0.20 M NaOH by dilution?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

V¹N²= V²N²

here V¹= ?

N¹= 6.00

V²= 175ml

M²= 0.2M

So V¹= (V²N²)/N² = (175 x 0.2)/6

V¹ = 5.83 ml

Explanation:

Therefore diluting 5.83 ml of 6.00M NaOH to 175 m l ,we get 0.2M Solution.

How many liters of cane juice is needed to supply 5g sucrose if cane juice contains 12% sucrose
pickupchik [31]

Given parameters:

Mass of sucrose  = 5g

Density of sucrose  = 1.12g/mL

Percentage of sucrose per liter of cane juice  = 12%

Unknown:

Volume of cane juice needed = ?

We need to establish the volume - density relationship. Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume.

Mathematically;

                Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}

Now solve for the volume of sucrose;

                  1.12g/mL = \frac{5}{Volume}

       Volume  = \frac{5}{1.12}    =  4.46mL   = 4.46 x 10⁻³L since 1000mL  = 1L

Since 12% of 1 liter of cane juice is sucrose;

                    12% of  x  liter of cane juice  = 4.46 x 10⁻³L

                   Volume of cane juice  = 4.46 x 10⁻³ x \frac{100}{12}   = 0.037L

Volume of cane juice is  0.037L

Answer:

volume in L = 0.25 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = 2.43 g

Volume of KI = ?

Solution:

Balanced chemical equation:

2Cu(NO₃)₂  + 4KI    →    2CuI + I₂ + 4KNO₃

Moles of Cu(NO₃)₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.43 g/ 187.56 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.013 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cu(NO₃)₂ with KI.

                        Cu(NO₃)₂       :              KI    

                              2              :               4

                            0.013          :            4 × 0.013=0.052 mol

Volume of KI:

<em>Molarity = moles of solute / volume in L</em>

volume in L = moles of solute /Molarity

volume in L =  0.052 mol / 0.209 mol/L

volume in L = 0.25 L
