Which of the following compounds has the highest boiling point.
nlexa [21]
Answer:
            1-<u>Pentanol </u>has the highest boiling point.

Explanation:
                   Boiling points of given compounds are as follow,

                 1) 2-Pentanone  =  101 °C

                 2) 1-Pentanol  =  138 °C

                 3)  Pentane  =  36.1 °C

                 4)  Pentanal  =  103 °C

Pentanol has greatest boiling point as compare to others because it involes a strongest intermolecular interactions called as hydrogen bond interactions. Remaining compounds lack the direct attachement of hydrogen to most electrnegative atom like oxygen which is present in 1-Pentanol.

Write balanced equations for the reaction of each of the following carboxylic acids with NaOH. Part A formic acid Express your a
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Part A

HCOOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) → HCOONa(aq) + H2O(l)

Part B

ClCH2CH2CO2H(aq) + NaOH(aq) ------> ClCH2CH2CO2Na(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

The reaction between an alkanoic acid and a base is a neutralization reaction. The reaction occurs as follows;

RCOOH + NaOH ----> RCOONa + H2O

We have to note the fact that the net ionic reaction still remains;

H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) ---> H2O(l)

In both cases, the reaction can occur and they actually do occur as written.

Calculate the amount of heat needed to boil 183.g of ethanol ( CH3CH2OH ), beginning from a temperature of 33.9°C . Round your a
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

19,700 Joules

Explanation:

Quantity of heat (Q) = mc(T2-T1)

m (mass of ethanol) = 183g

c (specific heat capacity of ethanol) = 2.44J/g°C

T2 (boiling temperature of ethanol) = 78°C

T1 (initial temperature of ethanol) = 33.9°C

Q = 183×2.44(78 - 33.9) = 183×2.44×44.1 = 19691.532 = 19,700 Joules (to three significant digits)
