1. If you look at a reaction equation for a Fischer esterification reaction, you cannot tell where the oxygen comes from (acid o

r alcohol). Knowing the mechanism of this reaction, devise an experiment using O18, to help prove unequivocally where the oxygen comes from. 2 The Fischer Esterification is highly reversible and the products are only, slightly favored. State two procedures you did to help drive the reaction to the ester. 3. A student forgot to remove their silica gel beads before distillation of ester product. After distillation, his product was cloudy, indicating it was wet. Why

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

In the experiment, an (18)O-labelled alcohol R('18)OH is used with normal unlabeled carboxylic acid RC(16)O2H:

The esterification reaction is:  

(note: the bracketed values are atomic masses)

RC(16)O_2H + R'(18)OH => RC16O18OR' + H_2(16)O

Since the alcohol is the nucleophile in this nucleophilic substitution reaction, it adds to the carbonyl group of the carboxylic acid and the (18)O atom becomes incorporated into the ester product, while the (16)OH group of the carboxylic acid is expelled as H_2(16)O.

By using mass spectroscopy to measure the mass of the ester and water products, it can be shown that each ester molecule contains one (18)O atom and one (16)O atom, while the water molecules contains only (16)O atoms.

This would prove unequivocally that the ester contains one O atom from the carboxylic acid and one O atom from the alcohol, while the water contains only O atoms from the carboxylic acid.

Which of these is the coarsest grit abrasive that may be used on aluminum?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

80grit

Explanation:

80 grit is coarsest grit that may be used on aluminum

The lowest grit sizes range from 40 to 60. From the given options 80 grit is practically available grit.

What is a sandpaper used for?

They are essentially used for surface preparation. Sandpaper is produced in a range of grit sizes and is used to remove material from surfaces, either to make them smoother (for example, in painting and wood finishing), to remove a layer of material (such as old paint), or sometimes to make the surface rougher (for example, as a preparation for gluing).

When the psychologist simply records the relationship between two variables...
Wewaii [24]
When a psychologist simply records the relationship between two variables without manipulating them, it is called a correlational study.

The observed relationship does not by itself reveal which variable causes the other. This is the directionally problem. Also, the relationship may be due to a third variable controlling both of the observed variables.
