A student finds a gold nugget while hiking in the forest. He is not sure if it is pure gold.

What reaction conditions most effectively conver a cabocxylic acid to a methly ester?

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Esterification reaction

Explanation:

When we have to go from an acid to an ester we can use the esterification reaction. On this reaction, an alcohol reacts with a carboxylic acid on acid medium to produce an ester and water. (See figure).

In this case, we need the methyl ester, therefore we have to choose the appropriate alcohol, so we have to use the methanol as reactive if we have to produce the methyl ester.

Water has a boiling point of 100.0°C and a Kb of 0.512°C/m. What is the boiling

Reil [10]

Answer:

The boiling point of a 8.5 m solution of Mg3(PO4)2 in water is 394.91 K.

Explanation:

The formula for molal boiling Point elevation is :

$\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m$

$\Delta T_{b}$ = elevation in boiling Point

$K_{b}$ = Boiling point constant( ebullioscopic constant)

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff Factor

Van't Hoff Factor = It takes into accounts,The abnormal values of Temperature change due to association and dissociation .

In solution Mg3(PO4)2 dissociates as follow :

$Mg_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+} + 2 PO_{4}^{3-}$

Total ions after dissociation in solution :

= 3 ions of Mg + 2 ions of phosphate

Total ions = 5

i = Van't Hoff Factor = 5

m = 8.5 m

$K_{b}$ = 0.512 °C/m

Insert the values and calculate temperature change:

$\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m$

$\Delta T_{b} = 5\times 0.512\times 8.5$

$\Delta T_{b} = 21.76 K$

Boiling point of pure water = 100°C = 273.15 +100 = 373.15 K

$\Delta T_{b} = T_{b} - T_{b}_{pure}$

$T_{b}_{pure}$ = 373.15 K[/tex]

21.76 = T - 373.15

T = 373.15 + 21.76

T =394.91 K

KHP is a monoprotic acid which provides one H+ ion. How would your results be affected if a diprotic acid (such as sulfuric acid

kari74 [83]

Explanation:

A.

In a diprotic acid, 2 moles of H+ ions is released. Therefore, number of moles of H+ in a diprotic acid = 2 × number of moles of H+ of monoprotic acid.

B.

Equation of the reaction

2NaOH + H2SO4 --> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Number of moles of H2SO4 = molar concentration × volume

= 0.75 × 0.0105

= 0.007875 moles.

By stoichiometry, since 1 mole of H2SO4 reacts with 2 moles of NaOH. Therefore, number of moles of NaOH = 2 × 0.007875

= 0.01575 moles.

Molar concentration of NaOH = number of moles ÷ volume

= 0.01575 ÷ 0.0175

= 0.9 M of NaOH.

Calculate the concentration in % (m/m) of a solution containing 30.0g of mgcl2 dissolved in 270.0g of h20

qaws [65]

As the question tells you, you need to use the formula

% mass= mass of solute/ mass of solution x 100

mass solute= 30.0 g
mass of solution= 30.0 + 270.0= 300.0 g

% mass= 30.0/ 300.0 x 100= 10%

answer is B
