In preparation of aspirin why is water added

Chemistry
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago

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.

The osmotic pressure of a saturated solution of strontium sulfate at 25 ∘C∘C is 21 torrtorr. Part A What is the solubility produ
USPshnik [31]

Answer

solubility product = 3.18x 10^-7

Explanation:

We were given the pressure in torr then we need to convert to atm for consistency, ten we have

21torr/760= 0.0276315789 atm

21 Torr = .0276315789 atm

P = i M S T

M = P / iRT

Where p is osmotic pressure

T= temperature= 25C+ 273= 298K

for XY vanthoff factor i = 2

S = 0.0821 L-atm / mol K

M = .0276315789 atm / (2)(0.0821 L atm / K mole)(298 K)

M = 0.000564698046 mol/liters

solubility= 0.000564698046 mol/liters

Ksp = [X+][Y-]

Ksp = X^2

Ksp = [Sr^+2] * [SO4^-2]

Ksp = X^2

Ksp = (0.000564698046)^2

Ksp = 3.18883883 × 10-7

Ksp = 3.18x 10^-7

solubility product = 3.18x 10^-7

Therefore, the solubility product of this salt at 25 ∘C∘C is 3.18x 10^-7

Geiger counters and scintillation counters differ in<br> Blank .
butalik [34]

The Geiger Counter. Geiger counters are used to detect radioactive emissions, most commonly beta particles and gamma rays. The counter consists of a tube filled with an inert gas that becomes conductive of electricity when it is impacted by a high-energy particle.

Hope That Helps!!!

According to the law of conservation of matter, which statement about chemical reactions is true?
Zolol [24]

The law of conservation of matter basically states that matter can’t be created or destroyed, only changed in form, so you can rule out any option that mentions destroying or creating matter. That leaves only option A. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed by chemical reactions.

You need to make 25 microliters of a 3M NaOh solution for a test reagent. Your laboratory routinely stocks 500 milliliters of a
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

0.0075 milliliters (7.5 microliters) will be taken from the stock solution and then diluted with 0.0249925 milliliters (24.9925 microliters) of water to make 0.025 milliliters (25 microliters) of NaOH solution.

Explanation:

This is a problem of dilution using the equation:

<em>initial concentration x initial volume = final concentration x final volume.</em>

The final volume to be prepared is 25 microliters.

The final concentration to be prepared is 3 M.

The initial volume to be taken is not known yet.

The initial concentration is 10 M.

Now, let's substitute these parameters into the the equation above.

10 x initial volume = 3 x 25

Initial volume = 3 x 25/10

     = 7.5 microliters

Note that: 1 microliter = 0.001 milliliters

Hence,

7.5 microliters = 0.0075 milliliters

<u>This means that an initial volume of 0.0075 milliliters (7.5 microliters) will be taken from the stock solution. This amount will then be diluted with 0.0249925 milliliters (24.9925 microliters) of water to make 0.025 milliliters (25 microliters) of NaOH solution.</u>

4-methyl-3-hexanol was prepared by reacting an alkene with either hydroboration-oxidation or oxymercuration-reduction. Draw the
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Structure in attachment.

Explanation:

The oxymercuration-demercuration of an asymmetric alkene usually produces the  Markovnikov orientation of an addition. The electrophile ⁺Hg(OAc), formed by the electrophile attack of the mercury ion, remains attached to least substituted group at the end of the double bond. This electrophile has a considerable amount of positive charge on its two  carbon atoms, but there is more positive charge on the more substituted carbon atom,  where it is more stable. The water attack occurs on this more electrophilic carbon, and the Markovnikov orientation occurs.

In hydroboration, borane adds to the double bond in one step. Boron is added to the less  hindered and less substituted carbon, and hydrogen is added to the more substituted carbon. The electrophilic boron atom adds to the less substituted end of the double bond, positioning the positive charge (and the hydrogen atom) at the more substituted end. The result is a product with the anti-Markovnikov orientation.
