Answer:

Alcohol :CH₃-CH₂-OH (ethanol)

Ether: H₃C-O-CH₃ (dimethyl ether)

Explanation:

Alcohols are compounds containing the hydroxyl or the -OH functional group i.e. R-OH where R is an alkyl or aryl group

Ethers are compounds with a general structure, R-O-R' where R and R' are once again either alkyl or aryl groups.

The given compound has a molecular formula: C₂H₆O

Structure with 'alcohol' -OH functional group

CH₃-CH₂-OH ------- ethanol

Structure with ether functionality:

H₃C-O-CH₃ ---------dimethyl ether

Answer is: there are two compounds with molecular formula C₂H₆O, one alcohol and one ethar.

Alcohol with molecular formula C₂H₆O is ethanol or ethyl alcohol (C₂H₅OH).

Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with characteristic odor.

Ether with molecular formula C₂H₆O is dimethyl ether (CH₃OCH₃).

Dimethyl ether is a colorless gas.

An aqueous solution of sucrose (C12H22O11C12H22O11) is prepared by dissolving 7.6330 gg in sufficient deionized water to form a

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.64 M

Explanation:

Data

Sucrose C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ mass = 7.633 g

volume = 25 ml

Molarity = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar weight of Sucrose

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ = (12 x 12) +(22 x 1) + (11 x 16)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 g

2.- Calculate the moles of sucrose

342 g ------------------ 1 mol

7.633 g --------------- x

x = (7.633 x 1) / 342

x = 0.0223 moles

3.- Calculate the molarity

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = 0.0223 / 0.035

Molarity = 0.64
