George Wittig was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1979. The crown of his work is the discovery of the alkene synthesis from carbonyl compounds and phosphorus ylides. In his honor, this reaction was later called the Wittig reaction.Wittig found that phosphoric ylides attack the carbonyl group in aldehydes and ketones, creating alkenes, as a result of the double bond between ylide and carbonyl carbon.

For a synthesis of 2-methyl-2-pentene over Wittig reaction as phosphonium ylide we will use triphenyl(propylidene)phosphorane and as carbonyl-containing molecule a propan-2-one (reaction is shown in the picture below).

Coal containing 15.0% H2O, 2.0% S and 83.0% C by mass is burnt with the stoichiometric amount of air in a furnace. What is the m
devlian [24]

Answer:

This is a coal combustion process and we will assume

Inlet coal amount = 100kg

It means that there are

15kg of H2O, 2kg of Sulphur and 83kg of Carbon

Now to find the mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust?

Molar mass of S = 32kg/kmol

Initial moles n  of S = 2/32 = 0.0625kmols

Reaction:  S + O₂ = SO₂

That is 1 mole of S reacts with 1 mole of O₂ to give 1 mole of SO₂

Then, it means for 0.0625 kmoles of S, we will have 0.0625 kmole of SO2 coming out of the exhaust

The mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust=0.0625kmols

Determine the amount of energy (heat) in joules required to raise the temperature of 20g of gold from 5°C to 37°C.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is E = 83.2 J

Explanation:

Data

Element: Gold

Initial temperature = T1 = 5°C

Final temperature = T2 = 37°C

mass = 20 g

Specific heat = 130 J/kg°K

Process

1.- Convert temperature to kelvin

T1 = 273 + 5 = 278°K

T2 = 273 + 37 = 310°K

2.- Convert mass to kg

             1000 g --------------- 1 kg

                 20 g --------------- x

                 x = (20 x 1)/1000

                 x = 0.02 kg

3.- Formula

E = mC(T2 -T1)

4.- Substitution

E = (0.02)(130)(310 - 278)

E = (0.02)(130)(32)

E = 83.2 J
