Answer:

To synthesize cis-2-methylcyclopentyl from methycyclopentanol, you need to replace the acetate hydroxyl group with acetate by inverting the configuration.  

Explanation:

To understand the process, you need to understand the nucleophilic mechanism taking place in the process. This is the first stage of the process. Hydroxide is a poor leaving group, to it must be converted to a good leaving group. To effect the change, it is necessary to use p-toluenesuphate.

p-toluenesuphate is favored because this can be prepared by a reaction that alters none of the bonds attached to the stereogenic center.

The reaction of p-toluensulfonate with potassium acetate in acetic acid effects the conversion to give the final product: cis-2-methylcyclopentyl.

7. How many liters of NH3, at STP will react with 10.6 g O2 to form NO2 and water? 4NH3(g) + 7O2(g) → 4NO2(g) + 6H2O(g) *
Alexus [3.1K]

7) Answer is: c. 4.24 L.

Balanced chemical reaction: 4NH₃(g) + 7O₂(g) → 4NO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g).

m(O₂) = 10.6 g; mass of oxygen.

n(O₂) = m(O₂) ÷ M(O₂).

n(O₂) = 10.6 g ÷ 32 g/mol.

n(O₂) = 0.33 mol; amount of oxygen.

Vm = 22.4 L/mol; molar volume at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).

At STP one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters of volume.

V(O₂) = n(O₂) · Vm.

V(O₂) = 0.33 mol · 22.4 L/mol.

V(O₂) = 7.42 L; volume of oxygen.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(NH₃) = 7 : 4.

n(NH₃) = 4 · 0.33 mol ÷ 7.

n(NH₃) = 0.188 mol; amount of ammonia.

V(NH₃) = 0.188 mol · 22.4 L/mol.

V(NH₃) = 4.24 L.

8) Answer is: a. 3.7 g.

Balanced chemical reaction: P₄(g) + 6H₂(g) → 4PH₃(g).

m(P₄) = 3.4 g; mass of phosphorous.

n(P₄) = m(P₄) ÷ M(P₄).

n(P₄) = 3.4 g ÷ 123.9 g/mol.

n(P₄) = 0.0274 mol; limiting reactant.

n(H₂) = 4 g ÷ 2 g/mol.

n(H₂) = 2 mol; amount of hydrogen.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(P₄) : n(PH₃) = 1 : 4.

n(PH₃) = 4 · 0.0274 mol.

n(PH₃) = 0.1096 mol.

m(PH₃) = 0.1096 mol · 34 g/mol.

m(PH₃) = 3.726 g.

9) Answer is: d. Percent yield is the ratio of theoretical yield to actual yield expressed as a percent.

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield.

Theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product that can be produced from limiting reactant and actual yield is a product that is obtained by experimentation.

For example:

the percent yield = 250 g ÷ 294.24 g · 100%.

the percent yield = 84.5 %.
