(a) What characteristic functional group do you expect to see in the IR spectrum, that is indicative of eugenol? (b) What wavenu

mber range is this functional group? (c What possible impurity in your sample also has this same functional group?

Answer:

a) The functional group that will be evident in the IR spectrum is the OH group.

b) OH group appears between 3200-3600 cm⁻¹

c) An important impurity that have the same functional group is water.

Explanation:

Eugenol is a chemical substance that consist in a benzene that have in 1 an alcohol, in position 2 a methyl ether and in position 4 an 1-propene bonded by the terminal alkyl carbon.

a) Having this in mind, the functional group that will be evident in the IR spectrum is the OH group.

b) This OH group appears between 3200-3600 cm⁻¹

c) An important impurity that have the same functional group is water. When you have water in your sample a big signal will appear in this zone and it is possible that overlapes the OH signal of eugenol.

I hope it helps!

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Calculate the amount of $CO_{2}$ dissolved as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

It is given that $K_{CO_{2}}$ = 0.032 M/atm and $P_{CO_{2}}$ = $1.9 \times 10^{-4}$ atm.

Hence, $[CO_{2}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$[CO_{2}]$ = $K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

= $0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm$

= $0.0608 \times 10^{-4}$

or, = $0.608 \times 10^{-5}$

It is given that $K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}$

As, $K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}$

$4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}$

$[H^{+}]^{2}$ = $2.71 \times 10^{-12}$

$[H^{+}]$ = $1.64 \times 10^{-6}$

Since, we know that pH = $-log [H^{+}]$

So, pH = $-log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})$

= 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

Read the scenario and then answer the question.

Dvinal [7]

Elias could be standing on the transform boundary.

Answer: Option 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past one another. At change limits lithosphere is neither made nor devastated. Many change limits are found on the ocean bottom, where they associate fragments of veering mid-sea edges. California's San Andreas issue is a transform boundary.

Transform boundaries are regions where the Earth's plates move past one another, scouring along the edges. Every one of these three sorts of plate limit has its own specific kind of flaw (or break) along which movement happens. Transforms are strike-slip issues. There is no vertical movement—just horizontal.
