Butanoic Acid is converted to Butanal in two steps;

Step 1: Conversion of Butanoic Acid into Butyryl Chloride:

Butanoic Acid when treated with Thionyl Chloride gives Butyryl Chloride, SO₂ and HCl gases. This step is selected due to conversion of a bad leaving group (-OH) into a good leaving group (-Cl).

Step 2: Conversion of Butyryl Chloride to Butanal:

In this reaction the Butyryl Chloride is reduced to Butanal by treating Butyryl Chloride with a mild reducing agent i.e. <span>Lithium tri </span>tert-<span>butoxy aluminum hydride.</span>

vesna_86 [32]

The value of a mole is 6.022 ×10^{23}. The other name of mole is Avogadro's number.

The mole is define as  6.022 ×10^{23} of the chemical unit like atoms , molecules, ions or others.It is very convenient unit because of huge numbers o f atoms, molecules or others. This is very important unit used by chemist.

One mole = atomic Mass of atoms / molecular mass of molecule

Example: one mole of sodium = 23 g = atomic mass

denis23 [38]

Storm clouds being formed will most likely occur in this scenario.

<h3>What are Storm clouds?</h3>

These are formed during the process of convection in which heat and moisture is transported upward into the atmosphere.

We were told that the weather is warm and cold air will enter the region which means that it will replace the heat and moisture as they move upwards thereby resulting in the formation of storm clouds.

What is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in a container that contains 3.63 mol of oxygen, 1.49 mol of nitrogen, and 4.49 m
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Partial pressure of CO₂ is 406.9 mmHg

Explanation:

To solve the question we should apply the concept of the mole fraction.

Mole fraction = Moles of gas / Total moles

We have the total moles of the mixture, if we have the moles for each gas inside. (3.63 moles of O₂, 1.49 moles of N₂ and 4.49 moles of CO₂)

Total moles = 3.63 mol O₂ + 1.49 mol N₂ + 4.49 mol CO₂ = 9.61 moles

To determiine the partial pressure of CO₂ we apply

Mole fraction of CO₂ → mol of CO₂ / Total moles = P. pressure CO₂ / Total P

Partial pressure of CO₂ = (mol of CO₂ / Total moles) . Total pressure

We replace values: (4.49 moles / 9.61 moles) . 871 mmHg = 406.9 mmHg
