Explain why one molecule of nabh4 will reduce only two molecules of m acetylbenzaldehyde to form the corresponding product

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]2 years ago
8 0

One molecule of nabh4 will reduce only two molecules of m-acetylbenzaldehyde to form the corresponding product because there are only two functional groups that can react with NaBH4, namely the ketone and the aldehyde, but NaBH4 had four H present to protonate the molecule.

What is protonation?

An atom, molecule, or ion can be protonated by adding a proton to it. The difference between protonation and hydrogenation is that during protonation, the protonated species' charge changes, whereas it remains unchanged during hydrogenation. Numerous catalytic processes result in protonation.

A conjugate acid is created when a proton (or hydron, or hydrogen cation), (H+), is added to an atom, molecule, or ion. Deprotonation is the analogous process that occurs when a proton is taken out of a Bronsted-Lowry acid.

How many moles of sucrose<br> are in 5.25x1029 sucrose<br> molecules? (in scientific notation)
Lorico [155]

Answer:

8.72 × 10^5 moles

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in 5.25 x 10^29 molecules of sucrose, we divide the number of molecules by Avagadro constant (6.02 × 10²³ molecules). That is;

no. of moles = no. of molecules ÷ 6.02 × 10²³ molecules

In this case of sucrose, no of moles contained is as follows;

5.25 × 10^29 ÷ 6.02 × 10²³

5.25/6.02 × 10^ (29-23)

0.872 × 10^6

= 8.72 × 10^5 moles

What is a mole?
leva [86]
It's hard to relate a mole to carbon or sulfur. Imagine if I walked up to you and said, "What's the relation between a dozen and donuts?"

A mole is a form of measurement for atoms, more specifically, 6.02 * 10^23 atoms. I suppose you could relate it to Carbon or Sulfur, since the number of atoms of each are usually measured in moles.

Carbon and Sulfur don't have a set number of moles (Just like donuts don't have to be a dozen), so it's hard to answer your second question.
In the atomic table, the number you see under the element is the molar mass, which is the weight of an a mole of the element. In this way, I guess there's a mole of Carbon and Sulfur present, if we're looking at the periodic table.

A container is filled with hydrogen gas. It has a volume of 4 liters and a pressure of 2 atm. If the pressure of the container i
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

1.33 L.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R  is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)</em>

<em></em>

Knowing that:

V₁  =  4.0 L, P₁ = 2.0 atm,

V₂  =  ??? L, P₂ = 6.0 atm.

  • Applying in the above equation

(P ₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)

<em>∴ V₂ = P ₁V₁/P₂</em> = (2.0 atm)(4.0 L)/(6.0 atm) =<em> 1.33 L.</em>

2 C4H10 + 13 O2--&gt; 8 CO2 + 10 H2O
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

4.14 x 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

Explanation:

2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ --> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

To find the number of CO₂ molecules, you need to start with 100 grams of butane (C₄H₁₀), convert to moles (using the molar mass), convert to moles of CO₂ (using coefficients from equation), then convert to molecules (using Avagadro's number). The molar mass of C₄H₁₀ is calculated using the quantity of each element (subscript) multiplied by the number on the periodic table. The ratios should be arranged in a way that allows for units to be cancelled.

4(12.011g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol) = 58.124 g/mol C₄H₁₀

100 grams C₄H₁₀          1 mol C₄H₁₀             8 mol CO₂
