The proton which is easily abstracted in 1-Benzyl-3-propylbenzene is the proton which is present on carbon atom in between two phenyl rings, or the central carbon which is shared by two benzene rings.

This easy abstraction of proton is due to its high acidity. Remember those species are always more acidic whose conjugate base is stable. Like the acidity of carboxylic acid is due to stability of the acetate ion.

In our case the stability of conjugate base arises due to stability of negative ion due to resonance. As shown below, the negative charge can delocalize on both rings.

I have shown the resonance of negative ion on both Phenyl rings with Blue and Pink colors.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

a) 226.6 grams of Cl₂

b) 19.2 grams of C

c) 303.2 grams of TiCl₄ and 70.4 grams of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is the following:

TiO₂(s) + C(s) + 2 Cl₂(g) → TiCl₄(s) + CO₂(g)

(a) What mass of Cl₂ gas is needed to react with 1.60 mol TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, 1 mol of TiO₂ reacts with 2 moles of Cl₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is 2 mol Cl₂/1 mol TiO₂. We multiply this ratio by the moles of TiO₂ we have to calculate the moles of Cl₂ we need:

1.60 mol TiO₂ x 2 mol Cl₂/1 mol TiO₂ = 3.2 mol Cl₂

Now, we convert from moles to mass by using the molecular weight (MW) of Cl₂:

MW(Cl₂) = 35.4 g/mol x 2 = 70.8 g/mol

mass of Cl₂= 3.2 mol x 70.8 g/mol = 226.6 g

Therefore, 226.6 grams of Cl₂ are needed to react with 1.6 mol of TiO₂.

(b) What mass of C is needed to react with 1.60 mol of TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, 1 mol of TiO₂ reacts with 1 moles of C(s). So, the stoichiometric ratio is 1 mol C/1 mol TiO₂. We multiply this ratio by the moles of TiO₂ we have to calculate the moles of C(s) we need:

1.60 mol TiO₂ x 1 mol C(s)/1 mol TiO₂ = 1.60 mol C(s)

So, we convert the moles of C(s) to grams as follows:

MW(C) = 12 g/mol

1.60 mol x 12 g/mol = 19.2 g C(s)

Therefore, a mass of 19.2 grams of C is needed to react with 1.60 mol of TiO₂.

(c) What is the mass of all the products formed by reaction with 1.60 mol of TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, we can notice that 1 mol of TiO₂ produces 1 mol of TiCl₄ and 1 mol of CO₂. So, from 1.60 moles of TiO₂, 1 mol of each product will be produced:

1 mol TiO₂/1 mol TiCl₄ ⇒ 1.60 mol TiO₂/1.60 mol TiCl₄

1 mol TiO₂/1 mol CO₂ ⇒ 1.60 mol TiO₂/1.60 mol CO₂

Finally, we convert the moles to grams by using the molecular weight of each compound:

MW(TiCl₄) = 47.9 g/mol Ti + (35.4 g/mol x 4 Cl) = 189.5 g/mol

1.60 mol x 189.5 g/mol = 303.2 g

MW(CO₂) = 12 g/mol C + (16 g/mol x 2 O) = 44 g/mol

1.60 mol x 44 g/mol = 70.4 g

Therefore, from the reaction of 1.60 mol of TiO₂ are formed 303.2 grams of TiCl₄ and 70.4 grams of CO₂.
