An unknown organic compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen was analyzed and found to be 50.84% C, 8.53% H, and the res

MariettaO [177]

In every 100g of that compund there is 50.84 g of C, 8.53 g H and (100-59.37) g = 40.63 g of O.

Step 1: Convert each element's mass in moles. To do that we need to divide each element's mass by their respective molar mass.

For Carbon.

$C = \frac{50.84}{12} = 4.24 mol$

For Hydrogen.

$H = \frac{8.53}{1} = 8.53 mol$

For Oxygen.

$O = \frac{40.63}{16} = 2.54 mol$

Step 2: Divide each of the numbers by the smallest number.

For Carbon.

$C = \frac{4.24}{2.54} = 1.7$

For Hydrogen.

$H = \frac{8.53}{2.54} = 3.36$

For Oxygen.

$O = \frac{2.54}{2.54} = 1$

Step 3: So the empirical formula will be.

$C_{1.7} H_{3.36} O_1$

But using decimal will be messy. So we multiply the numbers by 3. The right empirical formula will be.

$C_{5} H_{10} O_3$

QUICK QUESTION: On the Bohr model, how come potassium has 19 electrons in its valence shell if potassium has a K+? Isn’t it supp

Vlada [557]

Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.

Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.

In a two-step synthesis, C6H11Br is converted into C6H12O. From the structure of the product, molecular formula of the starting

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. However in picture 1, you have the starting materials and the structure of the product, which you miss in this part.

Now, in picture 2, you have the starting reactant and the product, and the mechanism that is taking place here.

First, all what we have here is an acid base reaction. In the first step, we are using the acid medium to convert the reactant into an alcohol. The bromine there, is not leaving the molecule yet, because it's neccesary for the next step. The starting reactant is an alkene, in that way, we can convert the reactant in the first step into a secondary alcohol. In other words, the first reaction is a alkene hydration.

In the second step, we use a strong base. You may say this is a strong nucleophile and will do a Sn2 reaction to form another alcohol there, but it's not the case, because, before any kind of reaction happens, the priority here is always the acid base, so the base will react with the acidic hydrogen. In this case, it will substract an hydrogen from the OH. When this happens, the lone pair will do an auto condensation here, and attacks the bromine in the molecule. In this way, the molecule will become a cyclomolecule, and that way it form the final product.

See picture 2, for mechanism
