What compound is formed when 2,2-dimethyloxirane (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane) is treated with ethanol containing sulfuric acid

Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have an "<u>epoxide"</u> (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane). Additionally, we have <u>acid medium</u> (due to the sulfuric acid H_2SO_4). The acid medium will produce the <u>hydronium ion</u> (H^+). This ion would be attacked by the oxygen of the epoxide. Then a <u>carbocation</u> would be produced, in this case, the most stable carbocation is the <u>tertiary one</u>. Then an <u>ethanol</u> molecule acts as a nucleophile and will attack the carbocation. Finally, a <u>deprotonation </u>step takes place to produce <u>2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol</u>.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

3) In the reaction below, how many grams of carbon dioxide are produced when iron III
Yanka [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

132.03 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • The equation for the reaction as;

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂

  • Molar masses of CO and CO₂ as 28.01 g/mol and 44.01 g/mol respectively
  • Mass of CO as 84 grams

We are required to calculate the mass of CO₂ that will produced.

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of CO</h3>

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of CO = 28.01 g/mol

Therefore;

Moles of CO = 84 g ÷ 28.01 g/mol

                     = 2.9989 moles

                    = 3.0 moles

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of CO₂</h3>
  • From the reaction, 3 moles of CO reacts to produce 3 moles of CO₂
  • Therefore; the mole ratio of CO to CO₂ is 1 : 1
  • Hence; Moles of CO = Moles of CO₂

Moles of CO₂ = 3.0 Moles

But; mass = Moles × molar mass

Thus, mass of CO₂ = 3.0 moles × 44.01 g/mol

                                = 132.03 g

Hence, the mass of CO₂ produced from the reaction is 132.03 g

What is the pH of a solution that has a hydroxide ion concentration of 1.0×10−9 M?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{pH = 5.00}}

Explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the pOH

pOH =-log[OH⁻]

pOH =-log(1.0 × 10⁻⁹)

pOH = 9.00

Step 2. Calculate the pH

pH + pOH = 14.00

pH + 9.00 = 14.00

\boxed{\textbf{pH = 5.00}}
