The experimental absolute zero value is less when compared to the accepted value of absolute zero.

<h3>What is absolute zero?</h3>

Absolute zero is defined as the temperature in which the lowest energy possible is attained in a thermodynamic system.

Absolute zero temperature has an accepted values of 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius.

At absolute zero, it is assumed that the volume of an ideal gas becomes zero. However, it has not been possible to cool any gas to absolute zero.

Based on the graph of temperature against volume of gases, the experimental absolute zero extrapolated from the graph where volume of the gases becomes zero is -285 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, the experimental absolute zero value is less when compared to the accepted value.

Compound A serves as a prodrug for the analgesic benzocaine. (A prodrug is a pharmacologically inactive compound that is convert

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The hydrolysis in aqueous HCl of compound A can lead to the formation of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol.

Explanation:

The picture shows the structures of compound A, benzoncaine and the possible products of the proposed reaction.

The acidic hydrolysis is the inverse of the esterification reaction. Therefore, the ester group of compund A will react to form the equivalent carboxylic acid and alcohol.

In order to form benzocaine, the hydrolysis happens in with the nitrile group.

Consider the Fischer ester synthesis of methyl benzoate from benzoic acid and methanol in the presence of sulfuric acid as a cat

zlopas [31]

Answer:

48.8%

Explanation:

The reaction has a 1:1 mole ratio so;

Number of moles of benzoic acid reacted = mass/molar mass = 3.8 g/122.12 g/mol = 0.03 moles

So;

0.03 moles of methyl benzoate is formed in the reaction

Mass of methyl benzoate formed = 0.03 moles * 136.15 g/mol = 4.1 g

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100/1

percent yield = 2.0 g/4.1 g * 100 = 48.8%
