Ephedrine, a central nervous system stimulant, is used in nasal sprays as a decongestant. This compound is a weak organic base:

C10H15ON (aq) + H2O (l) -> C10H15ONH+ (aq) + OH- (aq)

A 0.035 M solution of ephedrine has a pH of 11.33.

a) What are the equilibrium concentrations of C10H15ON, C10H15ONH<span>+, and OH-</span>?

b) Calculate <span>Kb</span> for ephedrine.

c(C₁₀H₁₅NO) = 0,035 M.<span>
pH = 11,33.
pOH = 14 - 11,33 = 2,67.
[OH</span>⁻] = 10∧(-2,67) = 0,00213 M.<span>
[OH</span>⁻] = [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] = 0,00213 M.<span>
[</span>C₁₀H₁₅NO] = 0,035 M - 0,00213 M = 0,03287 M.<span>
Kb = [OH</span>⁻] · [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] / [C₁₀H₁₅NO].<span>
Kb = (</span>0,00213 M)² / 0,03287 M = 1,38·10⁻⁴.

A student made an initial 1:5 dilution of protein lysate. Then 2mL of that was added to 8mL of water. Lastly, the student made a
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The final dilution is 1:400

Explanation:

Let's analyze what we are told: we have an initial 1:5 dilution of protein lysate. This means that the initial solution (stock solution) was diluted 5 times. Then, from this dilution the student prepared another dilution taking 2 mL of the first dilution in 8 mL of water. This is the same as saying we took 1 mL of first dilution in 4 mL of water (the ratio is the same), so we now have a second 1:4 dilution of the first dilution (1:5). Finally, the student made a third 1:20 dilution, this means that the second dilution was further diluted 20 times.

So, to calculate the final dilution of protein lysate, we have to multiply all the dilution factors of every dilution prepared: in this case we have a final dilution of 1:20, this means we have a factor dilution of 20. But it was previously diluted 4 times, so we have a factor dilution of 20×4 = 80. However, this dilution was also previously diluted 5 times, so the new dilution factor is 80 × 5 = 400

This means that the final dilution of the compound was diluted a total of 400 times compared to the initial concentration of stock solution.

Show the alkyl bromide and alcohol used to make methyl t-butyl ether using the Williamson ether synthesis to the right of the re
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Hi

Williamson's ether reactions imply that an alkoxide reacts with a primary haloalkane. Alkoxides consisting of the conjugate base of an alcohol and are formed by a group R attached to an oxygen atom. They are often written as RO–, where R is the organic substituent (Step 1).

Sn2 reactions are characterized by the reversal of stereochemistry at the site of the leaving group. Williamson's synthesis is no exception and the reaction is initiated by the subsequent attack of the nucleophile. This requires that the nucleophile and electrophile be in anti-configuration (Step 2).

As an example (figure 3).

In the attached file are each of the steps of Williamson's synthesis.
