What are they h-bond water acceptors in fentanyl, and is it souluable in water? Explain why or why not.
1 answer:
Here we have to get the atom, in the molecule fentanyl, which will behave as a hydrogen (H) bond acceptor from the donor water molecule.
The -O atom in the molecule will behave as the hydrogen bond acceptor from water.
The H-bond always forms between the proton (here water i.e. H₂O) and the proton acceptor atom in a molecule which is essentially is an electronegative element.
In the fentanyl molecule there are two nitrogen (N) atom and one oxygen (O) atom. We know the electronegativity of oxygen is more than the nitrogen. Thus it is expected that the O atom will be H-bond acceptor in the molecule.
The hydrogen bond with water molecule is shown in the figure.

Explanation:
It is known that 1 SCF produces approximately 1000 Btu of thermal energy.
As it is not mentioned for how many hours the gas is used in this process. Therefore, we assume that the total number of hours natural gas used in this process are as follows.
= 8760 hours
Now, we will calculate the annual cost of natural gas used in the process as follows.
= 555384000 SCF
Hence, annual cost of natural gas used in this process = loss of thermal energy
This will be equal to,
= 555,384,000,000 BTU
Thus, we can conclude that the annual cost of natural gas used in the process is 555,384,000,000 BTU.
