Answer:

Ethyl heptanoate (see the attached image for the structure).

Explanation:

The reaction of heptanoic acid and ethanol will result ethyl heptanoate ester.

Ethyl heptanoate is the ester resulting from the condensation of heptanoic acid and ethanol. It is used in the flavor industry because of its odor that is similar to grape.
Kindly, see the attached image of the structure and the reaction.

Which of the following is NOT true of white dwarfs?

liq [111]

Answer:

A white dwarf is what stars like the Sun become after they have exhausted their nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, this type of star expels most of its outer material, creating a planetary nebula. Only the hot core of the star remains. ... That means a white dwarf is 200,000 times as dense.

Explanation:

they are cold

they are about the size of Earth

these both are not true

A bomb calorimetric experiment was run to determine the enthalpy of combustion of ethanol. The reaction is The bomb had a heat c

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The enthalpy of combustion of ethanol in kJ/mol is -1419.58 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

The heat absorbed by the bomb and water is equal to the product of the heat capacity and the temperature change. Working with this equation, and assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings, we write :

qcal= Ccal × ΔT= 490 J/K × 276.7 K= 135,583 J = 135.58 kJ

Note we expressed the temperature change in K, because the heat capacity is written in K.

Now that we have the heat of combustion, we need to calculate the molar heat.

Because qsystem = qrxn + qcal and qrxn = -qcal, the heat change of the reaction is -135.58 kJ.

This is the heat released by the combustion of 4.40 g of ethanol ; therefore, we can write the conversion factor as 135.58 kJ/ 4.40 g.

The molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g, so the heat of combustion of 1 mole of ethanol is :

molar heat of combustion= -135.58 kJ/4.40 g x 46.07 g/ 1 mol= -1419.58 kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of ethanol in kJ/mol is -1419.58 kJ/mol.

What information is needed to calculate the percent composition of a compound

IrinaVladis [17]

Percent Composition by Mass. Percent composition is calculated from a molecular formula by dividing the mass of a single element in one mole of a compound by the mass of one mole of the entire compound. This value is presented as a percentage.
