Answer:
1) positive
2) carbocation
3) most stable
4) faster
Explanation:
A common test for the presence of alcohols can be achieved using the Lucas reagent. Lucas reagent is a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride.
The reaction of Lucas reagent reacts with alcohols leading to the formation of an alkyl chloride. Since the reaction proceeds via a carbocation mechanism, tertiary alcohols give an immediate reaction. Once a tertiary alcohol is mixed with Lucas reagent, the solution turns cloudy almost immediately indicating an instant positive reaction.
Secondary alcohols may turn cloudy within five minutes of mixing the solutions. Primary alcohols do not significantly react with Lucas reagent obviously because they do not form stable carbocations.
Therefore we can use the Lucas reagent to distinguish between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.
Answer:
168°C is the melting point of your impure sample.
Explanation:
Melting point of pure camphor= T =179°C
Melting point of sample = 
= ?
Depression in freezing point = 
Depression in freezing point is also given by formula:
= The freezing point depression constant
m = molality of the sample = 0.275 mol/kg
i = van't Hoff factor
We have: = 40°C kg/mol
i = 1 ( non electrolyte)
168°C is the melting point of your impure sample.
Sand is because the other ones are liquid
The complete question is;
Calculate the empirical formula for each of the following naturalflavors based on their elemental mass percent composition.
Q1)
methyl butyrate (component of apple taste andsmell): C -58.80 % H- 9.87 %
O -31.33.%Express your answer as a chemical formula.
Q2)
vanillin (responsible for the taste and smellof vanilla): C - 63.15% H- 5.30 %
O - 31.55%Express your answer as a chemical formula.
Q1)
empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole number of elements in the compound. as the percentages have been given, lets calculate for 100 g of compound
C H O
mass 58.80 g 9.87 g 31.33
molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
number of moles 58.80/12 9.87/1 31.33/16
= 4.9 =9.87 = 1.95
then divide number of moles by least number of moles - 1.95 in this case
4.9/1.95 = 2.51 9.87/1.95 = 5.06 1.95/1.95= 1
next multiply by 2 to get numbers that can be rounded off to whole numbers
2.51x2 = 5.02 5.06x2 = 10.12 1x2 = 2
when rounded off to the nearest whole number
C - 5
H - 10
O - 2
therefore empirical formula is C₅H₁₀O₂
Q2) for this too since elemental composition has been given in percentages lets calculate for 100 g of compound
C H O
mass 63.15 g 5.30 g 31.55 g
molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
number of moles 63.15/12 5.30/1 31.55/16
=5.26 =5.30 =1.97
divide the number of moles by the least number of moles - 1.97
5.26/1.97 5.30/1.97 1.97/1.97
=2.67 = 2.69 = 1
multiply each by 3 to get numbers that can be rounded off to whole numbers
2.67x3 = 8.01 2.69x3 = 8.07 1x3 = 3
rounded off to the nearest whole numbers
C - 8
H - 8
O - 3
empirical formula = C₈H₈O₃
