Answer:

1-bromobutane, unlike others, will not be removed because it is an <em>alkane</em> and inert to concentrated sulfuric acid.

Explanation:

<em>Alkanes</em> are saturated organic compounds, primarily made up of hydrogen and carbon atoms. Saturation implies that they posses no double or triple bonds, therefore making them stable and unresponsive to addition reactions and also, concentrated sulfuric acid.

1-Butanol is a primary alcohol. Primary alcohols will react with acids to produce alkyl halides. 1-butene, as an alkene, will react with concentrated sulfuric acid to produce alkyl hyrgensulfate, while di-n-butyl will produce an ether when it reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid.

Therefore, these organic compounds will be washed and converted to other compounds by concentrated sulfuric acid except 1-bromobutane.

s344n2d4d5 [400]
A solution is prepared by adding 1.43 mol of potassium chloride (kcl) to 889 g of water. The concentration of kcl is 1.61  molal.
mol of Kcl (potassium chloride)= 1.43
water = 889 g
the formula for calculating molality is:
molality = moles of solute/kilograms of solvent
1kg = 1000g so, 889g = 0.889kg

m = 1.43/0.889 = 1.61 molal

Combustion analysis of a hydrocarbon produced 33.01 g co2 and 13.52 g h2o. calculate the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon.
Akimi4 [234]
Answer is: <span>the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is CH</span>₂.<span>
Chemical reaction: C</span>ₓHₐ + O₂ → xC + a/2H₂O.<span>
m(CO</span>₂) = 33.01 g.
n(CO₂) = m(CO₂) ÷ M(CO₂).
n(CO₂) = 33.01 g ÷ 44.01 g/mol.
n(CO₂) = n(C) = 0.75 mol.
m(H₂O) = 13.52 g.
n(H₂O) = 13.52 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 0.75 mol.
n(H) = 2 · n(H₂O) = 1.5 mol.
n(C) : n(H) = 0.75 mol : 1.5 mol /0.75 mol.
n(C) : n(H) = 1 : 2.
