Explanation:
You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.
A. Mechanism
Step 1
NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.
Step 2
The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.
B. Improve the yield
You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.
You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.
A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.
C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols
Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.
This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.
Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.
Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.
A molecule of water then removes the proton.
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Natural gas is colorless and odorless, and explosive, so a sulfur-smell (similar to rotten eggs) is usually added for early detection of leaks. ... Natural gas is a fossil fuel. Natural gas is a non-renewable hydrocarbon used as a source of energy for heating, cooking, and electricity generation.
Answer:
Explanation: Q1 = mc(ice) ΔT (ice warms)
Q2 = ms (ice melts)
Q3 = mc((water) ΔT (water warms)
Q4 = mr (water boils)
Q5 = mc(vapour)ΔT
Answer:
Step 1 should be convert atoms to moles (n). Step 2 should be convert moles (n) to mass (m).
Step 1
Use dimensional analysis to convert the number of atoms to moles.
1 mole atoms = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
n(Ag) = 2.3 × 10²⁴ Ag atoms × (1 mol Ag/6.022 × 10²³ Ag atoms) = 3.8193 mol Ag
Step 2
Convert the moles of Ag to mass.
mass (m) = moles (n) × molar mass (M)
n(Ag) = 3.8193 mol Ag
M(Ag) = atomic weight on the periodic table in g/mol = 107.868 g Ag/mol Ag
m(Ag) = 3.8193 mol × 107.868 g/mol = 412 g Ag = 410 g Ag rounded to two significant figures
The mass of 2.3 × 10²⁴ Ag atoms is approximately 410 g.
Explanation:
Density is defined as the ratio of mass to the volume.
Density = 
(1)
Mass of water = 10 grams
Mass of acetone = 10 grams
Density of water = 1 
Density of acetone = 0.7857
Put the value of density of water and its mass in equation (1)
1 = 
Volume of water = 10 
Put the value of density of acetone and its mass in equation (1)
0.7857 =
Volume of acetone = 12.72
Thus, volume of acetone is more than volume of water because the density of acetone is lower.
