True or False: It is OK to use wet glassware for the aspirin synthesis without potentially affecting your yield

Chemistry
1 answer:
vesna_86 [32]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Laboratory synthesis of aspirin is done by the acetylation of salicylic acid with the help of acetic anhydride .

As , the  acid anhydride is very sensitive to moisture , as it can hydrolyze into two molecules of  acids,

Hence , the reaction involving acid anhydride  are conducted in anhydrous solvents .

Hence ,

if water is  present in the glassware then , some of the acetic anhydride is wasted , Which in turns reduces the yield than that expected .

22.4 L of hydrogen is taken in a cylinder at zero degree Celsius and at one atm. This gas is transferred to a cylinder of 11.2 L
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

  2 Atm; 2.016 g

Explanation:

Changing the volume without changing the temperature or mass only changes the pressure. Volume and pressure are inversely proportional so halving the volume will double the pressure.

P = 1 Atm, T = 0 °C are "standard" temperature and pressure (STP). The volume of 1 mole of gas is 22.4 L under these conditions. That means the amount of hydrogen gas in the cylinder is 1 mole, so has a mass of 2.016 g.

After the volume reduction, the pressure is 2 Atm, and the mass remains 2.016 g.

The equilibrium constant for the chemical equation is Kp = 5.23 at 191 °C. Calculate the value of the Kc for the reaction at 191
Lapatulllka [165]
To convert from Kp to Kc, you need this formula---> Kp= Kc (RT)^Δn, where Δn= gas moles of product- gas moles of reactants. since you did not give a reaction formula, I can't calculate Δn. but all once you find it out. just plug it. 

Kp= Kc (RT)^Δn------------------> Kc= Kp/[(RT)^Δn]
 Kp= 5.23
R= 0.0821
T= 191 C= 464 K
Δn= ?

Kc= 5.23/ (0.0821 x 464)^Δn= ???
