You are running a rather large scale reaction where you prepare the grignard reagent phenylmagnesium bromide by reacting 210.14

grams of magnesium with 772 ml of bromobenzene. How many moles of grignard reagent would you expect to form? (the density of bromobenzene is 1.495 g/ml, Mg = 24.3 g/mol, bromobenzene=157.01 g/mol)

Answer:

We would expect to form 7.35 moles of grignard reagent.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of magnesium = 210.14 grams

Volume bromobenzene = 772 mL

Density of bromobenzene = 1.495 g/mL

Molar mass of Mg = 24.3 g/mol

Molar mass of bromobenzene = 157.01 g/mol

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation

C6H5Br + Mg ⇒ C6H5MgBr

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate mass of bromobenzene

Mass bromobenzene = density bromobenzene * volume

Mass bromobenzene = 1.495 g/mL * 772 mL

Mass bromobenzene = 1154.14 grams

<u>Step 4</u>: Calculate number of moles bromobenzene

Moles bromobenzene = mass bromobenzene / molar mass bromobenzene

Moles bromobenzene = 1154.14g / 157.01 g/mol

Moles bromobenzene = 7.35 moles

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate moles of Mg

Moles Mg = 210.14 grams /24.3 g/mol

Moles Mg = 8.65 moles

<u>Step 6:</u> The limiting reactant

The mole ratio is 1:1 So the bromobenzene has the smallest amount of moles, so it's the limiting reactant. It will be completely consumed ( 7.35 moles). Magnesium is in excess, There will react 7.35 moles. There will remain 8.65 - 7.35 = 1.30 moles

<u>Step 7:</u> Calculate moles of phenylmagnesium bromide

For 1 mole of bromobenzene, we need 1 mole of Mg to produce 1 mole of phenylmagnesium bromide

For 7.35 moles bromobenzene, we have 7.35 moles phenylmagnesium bromide

We would expect to form 7.35 moles of grignard reagent.

Why is water a polar compound?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Water is a unique molecule and thus consists of unique properties. It is considered polar because of its charges and its bent shape. The two oxygen are negative and the hydrogen is positive. This creates two poles, making the molecule polar. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding.

What does “like dissolves like” mean?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

c  solvents dissolve chemicals with the same polarity ( ex. both are polar)

Explanation:

Like dissolves like is one of the central rule that guides the solubility of one substance in another.

  • It fully suggests substance having the same nature as in polarity-wise will dissolve one another.
  • For example, water is a polar liquid, it will dissolve table salt because it i also polar.
  • Water cannot dissolve oil because oil is non-polar.
