The given compound is being synthesized by condensing
Acetone and
Pivaldehyde (Trimethylacetaldehyde).
First Acetone is treated with
Base, the base abstracts the mildly acidic proton present at alpha position to carbonyl group. The resulting specie called
enolate act as a nucleophile and attacks on highly reactive aldehyde which upon
dehydration yields the
Aldol Product. The Reaction is as follow,
<span>70.4 mg CO2 x 1.0 g /1000 mg x 1 mole CO2/ 44 gCO2 x 1 mole C/1 mole CO2 = 0.0016 moles C
14.4 mg H2O x 1.0 g/1000 mg x 1 mole H2O/18 g H2O x 2 moles H/ 1 mole H2O = 0.0016 moles O
molar mass of C=12 g/mole
molar mass of H=1 g/mole
0.0016 moles C x 12 g C/ 1 mole C = 0.0192 g C or 19.2 mg C
0.00156 moles H x 1 g H/1 mole H = 0.00156 g H or 1.56 mg H
mg O= 30.4 mg vanillin - 19.2 mg C – 1.56 mg H = 9.64 mg O
molar mass of O=16 g/mole
9.64 mg O x 1 g/1000 mg x 1 mole O/16.0 g = 0.000602
C.0016 H.0016 O.000602; divide all the moles by the smallest value of0.000602
C2.66H2.66O1 is the empirical formula;
to obtain whole numbers multiply by 3
3[C2.66H2.66O1] = C8H8O3
above formula weight: 8(C) + 8(H) + 3(O) = 8(12) + 8(1) + 3(16) = 152 amu
The empirical formula weight and the molecular formula weight are the same .
Molecular formula is C8H8O3.</span>
Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of
is shown below.
Explanation :
Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.
In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.
The given molecule is, 
As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, chlorine has '7' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.
Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in
= 1(4) + 2(7) + 1(6) = 24
According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.
The boiling point of plain water is less than the boiling point of both salt and sugar water.
<h3>What is boiling point?</h3>
Boiling point can be defined as the point when the pressure exerted by the surroundings upon a liquid is equal to the pressure exerted by the vapour of the liquid.
The boiling point of plain water is 100°C which increases upon addition of solute substances such as salt and sugar.
But salts are usually made up of ionic bonds while sugar are made up of covalent bonds. This means that more energy would be required to boil salt solution due to its ionic bonds.
Therefore, the boiling point of salt water is highest following sugar water before plain water which is the lowest.
