Answer:
The formula of Organic acid is as follow,
R-COOH
Explanation:
The class of organic acids is called Carboxylic Acids. In above general structure, R is alkyl group and can vary. While -COOH is the functional group.
Carboxylic Acids has the tendency to loose protons and their pKa value depends upon the alkyl group. For example the pKa value of Acetic acid (R = -CH₃) is 4.7. The driving force for this acidity is the stability of carboxylate (conjugate base) due resonance. i.e
RCOOH ⇄ RCOO⁻ + H⁺
Where;
RCOO⁻ = Carboxylate Ion (Conjugate base)
Answer:
[∝] = +472
Explanation:
Specific rotation in a solution is defined as:
[∝] = ∝ / c×l
Where:
[∝] is specific rotation, ∝ is observed rotation (In degrees), c is concentration in g/mL and l is path length (In dm).
∝: +47.2°
c: 2.0g / 50mL = 0.04g/mL
l: 25cm × (1dm /10cm) = 2.5dm
Replacing:
[∝] = +47.2° / 0.04g/mL×2.5dm = <em>+472</em>

Answer:
The percent recovery from re crystallization for both compounds A and B is 69.745 and 81.44 % respectively.
Explanation:
Mass of compound A in a mixture = 119 mg
Mass of compound A after re-crystallization = 83 mg
Percent recovery from re-crystallization :

Percent recovery of compound A:

Mass of compound B in a mixture = 97 mg
Mass of compound B after re-crystallization = 79 mg
Percent recovery of compound B:
