In preparation of aspirin why is water added

Chemistry
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
8 0
The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid.

However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.

Calculate the solubility of carbon dioxide at 400 kPa.
BaLLatris [955]

The solubility of carbon dioxide at 400 kPa  at room temperature is ;

( B ) 0.61 CO2/L

<u>Given data </u>

pressure of CO₂ = 400 Kpa = 3.95 atm

Kh of CO₂ = 3.3 * 10⁻² mol/L.atm

<h3>Calculate the solubility of carbon dioxide </h3>

Solubility = pressure * Kh value of CO₂

                = 3.95 atm * 3.3 * 10⁻² mol / L.atm

                = 0.13 mol/l  CO₂

                = 0.61 CO₂ / L

Hence we can conclude that the solubility of CO₂ at 400 kPa is 0.13 mol/l  CO₂.

Which of the following characteristics describes aerobic organisms.
horsena [70]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Aerobic organisms are the organisms which survive and grow in the presence of oxygen.

When oxidation of glucose occurs in the presence of oxygen then it is known as aerobic respiration.

In aerobic respiration, food releases energy to produce ATP which is necessary for cell activity. There is complete breakdown of glucose in aerobic respiration that is why more energy is released. Therefore, aerobic organisms become active.

Thus, we can conclude that characteristics very active, efficient use of energy describes aerobic organisms.

An acid sample of an unknown concentration is contained in a erlenmeyer flask. Which technique below would be best suited to ana
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Titration

Explanation:

The best technique which can be used to determine the number of moles of the HCl in the sample is titration.

The given amount of HCl solution must be titrated with known concentration of the base like NaOH.

The volume of NaOH required must be noted also.

According to the reaction,

NaOH+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

At equivalence point

Moles of HCl = Moles of NaOH

Considering:-

Moles of HCl=Molarity_{NaOH}\times Volume_{NaOH}

Thus, in this way, moles of HCl can be determined.

As the pressure on the surface of a liquid decreases, the temperature at which the liquid will boil
ankoles [38]

Answer: option (1) decreases.


Explanation:


May be you have experienced that: when you go to the beach, where the atmposhpere pressure is greater than the atmosphere pressure in places that are at higher altitudes, the water takes longer to boil. That is because the boiling temperature is greater, and you need more total heat (more time) to permit the liquid to reach that temperature.


The reason why that happens is because substances boil when the vapor pressure (the pressure of the particles of vapor over the liquid) equals the atmosphere pressure. So, when the atmposhere pressure increases, the temperature at which the vapor pressure reaches the atmosphere pressure also increases, and when the atmosphere pressure decreases, the temperature at which the vapor pressure reaches the atmosphere pressure decreases.
