Enter the number of unique signals in the 1H NMR spectrum of ethanol. Assume that the hydroxy proton does NOT exchange with the
1 answer:
Answer:
In the 1H NMR spectrum of ethanol three different signals are observed, this is due to the existence of 3 types of hydrogens with different chemical environment. Hydrogens A (3.57 ppm) are more screened than C (1.10 ppm) due to the presence of oxygen (electonegative atom that removes electron density). The chemical environment of hydrogen B (4.78 ppm), attached directly to oxygen, is also different by resonating at a frequency different from the previous ones.
The hydroxylic hydrogen produces a singlet, the pair of carbon hydrogens one give rise to a quadruplet and the three hydrogens of carbon two produce a triplet.

Answer:
we will use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation to estimate the vapour pressures of the boiling ethanol at sea level pressure of 760mmHg:
ln (P2/P1) = -
)
where
P1 and P2 are the vapour pressures at temperatures T1 and T2
Δ vapH = the enthalpy of vaporization of the ETHANOL
R = the Universal Gas Constant
In this problem,
P 1 = 100 mmHg
; T 1 = 34.7 °C = 307.07 K
P 2 = 760mmHg
T 2 =T⁻²=?
Δ vap H = 38.6 kJ/mol
R = 0.008314 kJ⋅K -1 mol -1
ln ( 760/10)=(0.00325 - T⁻²) (38.6kJ⋅mol-1 /0.008314 )
0.0004368=(0.00325 - T⁻²)
T⁻²=0.002813
T² = 355.47K
