Ethyl butyrate, ch3ch2ch2co2ch2ch3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange

and pineapple. its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring. it can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (h+): ch3ch2ch2co2h(l) + ch2ch3oh(l) ⟶ ch3ch2ch2co2ch2ch3(l) + h2o(l) now lets say that you discover a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 79.1 % yield. how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 13.58 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol?

Answer:

             14.15 g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow;

           Butanoic Acid  +  Ethanol    →    Ethyl Butyrate  +  Water

Molar Mass of Butanoic Acid  =  88.11 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Ethanol  =  46.07 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Ethyl Butyrate  =  116.16 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Water  =  18.01 g.mol⁻¹

Step 1: Calculating Theoretical Yield:

According to Equation,

           88.11 g (1 mol) Butanoic Acid forms  =  116.16 g (1 mol) Ethyl Butyrate

So,

                 13.58 g Butanoic Acid will form  =  X g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solving for X,

                     X  =  (13.58 g × 116.16 g) ÷ 88.11 g

                     X  =  17.90 g

                     Theoretical Yield  =  17.90 g

Step 2: Calculating Actual Yield:

As,

                     %age Yield  =  Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield × 100

Solving for Actual Yield,

                      Actual Yield  =  %age Yield × Theoretical Yield ÷ 100

Putting Values,

                      Actual Yield  =  79.1 × 17.90 ÷ 100

                      Actual Yield =  14.15 g of Ethyl Butyrate

Which class of compounds contains only carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen?
Likurg_2 [28]
<h2>Answer: </h2>

Nitrogen forms many thousands of organic compounds. Most of the known varieties may be regarded as derived from ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, cyanogen, and nitrous or nitric acid. The amines, amino acids, and amides, for example, are derived from or closely related to ammonia.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

A carbohydrate has only Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen, with the hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio 2:1.

Examples are glucose C6H12O6 and table sugar C12H22O11

A protein is made of amino acids. Amino acids have an amino group which is −NH2.  

So without nitrogen atoms the compound cannot be a protein.

Nucleic acids are organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen but they also contains phosphorus and oxygen. They are made of smaller units called nucleotides.

So;

Simple Amines are the class of organic compounds that only contains Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen.
