Diethyl ether is produced from ethanol according to the following equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
juin [17]3 years ago
6 0
The balanced chemical equation is given as:

2CH3CH2OH(l) → CH3CH2OCH2CH3(l) + H2O(l)

We are given the yield of  CH3CH2OCH2CH3 and the amount of ethanol to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point for the calculations.

Theoretical amount of product produced:
329 g CH3CH2OH ( 1 mol / 46.07 g ) ( 1 mol CH3CH2OCH2CH3 / 2 mol CH3CH2OH ) (74.12 g / mol ) = 264.66 g CH3CH2OCH2CH3 

% yield = .775 = actual yield / 264.66


actual yield = 205.11 g CH3CH2OCH2CH3

The ph of a 0.30 m solution of a weak acid is 2.67. what is the ka for this acid?
azamat
To determine the Ka of the acid, we can use the equation for the pH of weak acids which is expressed as:

pH = -0.5 log Ka
2.67 = -0.5 log Ka
Ka = 4.571x10^-6

Weak acids are acids that do not dissociate completely in solution. The solution would contain the cations, anions and the acid itself as a compound. Hope this helps.
