Answer:

Esters have lower boiling point than alcohols.

Explanation:

Esters are the fruity smelling compounds which are formed from carboxylic acid and alcohol with the removal of water.

The general formula for the ester is RCOOR' which is prepared from RCOOH acid and R'OH alcohol.

Ester can not form strong hydrogen bond as there is no hydrogen attached to the electronegative atom in the ester and thus cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other.<u> Due to this factor, the interactions within the molecules of the ester is lower than that of alcohols which exist in strong hydrogen bonding. As a result, ester can be easily boiled when compared to the alcohols and thus they have lower value of boiling points.</u>

What purpose do each of the following play in the isolation and purification of ethyl 3- hydroxybutanoate?
Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

-Filter help — delete some big unreacted, undesirable species (norit is probably from what you are sorting through, its only carbon which cleans up things)

— extract with DCM because you are probably in an aqueous phase, and some butanoate is in it

- Anhydrous sodium absorbs excess of  water (dries the material)

-evaporation in the hood to clear the DCM and crystallize the product.

The equilibrium constant, k, for a redox reaction at 25° c is 7.3 × 107. what is the value of e° if the overall reaction transfe
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

0.23 V.

Explanation:

<em>∵ ΔG° = -RT lnK.</em>

∴ ΔG° = -RTlnK = -(8.314 J/mol)(298 K) ln(7.3 × 10⁷) = - 44.86 x 10³ J/mol.

<em>∵ ΔG° = - nFE°</em>

∴ E° = - ΔG°/nF = - (- 44.86 x 10³ J/mol)/(2 x 96500 s.A/mol) = 0.2324 V ≅ 0.23 V.

H2+Cl2–&gt; 2HCl<br> How many moles of Cl2 are needed to react with 3 miles of H2?
OleMash [197]

Hey there!

3 moles of Cl₂ are needed to react with 3 moles of H₂.

2 atoms of H are reacting with 2 atoms of Cl, the product is made up of 2 atoms of H and 2 atoms of Cl.

So they are reacting in a 1 to 1 ratio, and have the same number of moles.

Hope this helps!
