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>

A gas under a pressure of 74 mmHg and at a temperature of 75°C occupies a 500.0-L container. How many moles of gas are in the co
Leona [35]

Answer : The number of moles of gas present in container are 1.697 mole.

Explanation :

Using ideal gas equation,

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = 74 mmHg = 0.097 atm

conversion used : (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

V = volume of gas = 500.0 L

T = temperature of gas = 75^oC=75+273=348K

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get the number of moles of gas in the container.

(0.097atm)\times (500.0L)=n\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (348K)

n=1.697mole

Therefore, the number of moles of gas present in container are 1.697 mole.
