Suppose a student started with 142.0 mg of trans-cinnamic acid, 412 mg of pyridinium tribromide, and 2.30 mL of glacial acetic a

cid. After the reaction and workup, the student ended up with 0.2223 g of brominated product. Calculate the student\'s theoretical and percent yields.

Answer: Theoretical Yield = 0.2952 g

               Percentage Yield = 75.3%

Explanation:

Calculation of limiting reactant:

n-trans-cinnamic acid moles = (142mg/1000) / 148.16 = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

pyridium tribromide moles = (412mg/1000) / 319.82= 1.288*10⁻³ mol

  • n-trans-cinnamic acid is the limiting reactant

The molar ratio according to the equation mentioned is equals to 1:1

The brominated product moles is also = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

Theoretical yield = (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (Mr of brominated product)

                             =  (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (307.97) = 0.2952 g

Percentage Yield is : Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield = 0.2223/0.2952

                                                                                           = 75.3%

Which phase change results with increased kinetic energy?

An increase in kinetic energy corresponds to an increase in temperature. Out of boiling, condensation, freezing, and precipitation, boiling is the only one that indicates an increase in temperature.

10. When the pressure on a gas inetcases three times, by how much will the volume incrcase or decrease?
blagie [28]

Answer:The answer to this question comes from experiments done by the scientist Robert Boyle in an effort to improve air pumps. In the 1600's, Boyle measured the volumes of gases at different pressures. Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle's law.

Explanation: So, at constant temperature, the answer to your answer is: the volume decreases in the same ratio as the ratio of pressure increases.

BUT, in general, there is not a single answer to your question. It depend by the context.

For example, if you put the gas in a rigid steel tank (volume is constant), you can heat the gas, so provoking a pressure increase. But you won't get any change in volume.

Or, if you heat the gas in a partially elastic vessel (as a tire or a soccer ball) you will get both an increase of volume AND an increase of pressure.

FINALLY if you inflate a bubblegum ball, the volume will be increased without any change in pressure and temperature, because you have increased the NUMBER of molecules in the balloon.

There are many other ways to change volume and pressure of a gas that are different from the Boyle experiment.

Determine whether the disruption of the bonds or attractions occurs during protein hydrolysis or protein denaturation.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The disruption of the bonds or attractions occurs during protein hydrolysis which results in the loss for the primacy structure. The peptide bonds is the bond affected in this scenario.

The disruption of the bonds however only exist in the process of denaturation and this results in a change in the confirmation which could be secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structural related. And example of the bonds affected include salt bridges, disulfide bridges, hydrogen bonds etc.
