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

When is gas behavior most ideal?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: so B

Explanation:

Generally, a gas behaves more like an ideal gas at higher temperature and lower pressure, as the potential energy due to intermolecular forces becomes less significant compared with the particles' kinetic energy, and the size of the molecules becomes less significant compared to the empty space between them.

How many moles of oxygen will occupy a volume of 2.5 liters at 1.2 atm
Citrus2011 [14]

<u>We are given:</u><u>_______________________________________________</u>

Volume of Gas (V) = 2.5L

Pressure (P) = 1.2 atm

Temperature (T) = 25°C  OR 25+273 = 298 K

Universal Gravitational Constant (R) = 0.0821

<u>Solving for number of moles:</u><u>___________________________________</u>

From the Ideal Gas Equation,

PV = nRT

(1.2)(2.5) = n(0.0821)(298)           [plugging the given values]

n = [(1.2)(2.5)] / [0.0821*298]

n = 300 / [298*8.21]

n = 0.12 moles

Hence, there are 0.12 moles of Oxygen in 2.5L of 1.2 atm gas when the temperature is 25°C
