The answer is true. I just had this question on a test and I got it wrong for saying false.

DecantationDecantation is a process for the separation of mixtures, by removing a layer of liquid, generally one from which a precipitate has settled. The purpose may be either to produce a clean decant, or to remove undesired liquid from the precipitate (or other layers). Separate liquids
so it is false

Complete question:

Coal gasification consists of the chemical transformation of solid coal into gas. The heating values of coal differ, but the higher the heating value, the higher the value of the gas produced (which is essentially methane, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, etc.). The following coal has a reported heating value of 29,770 KJ/Kg as received. Assuming that this is the gross heating value, calculate the net heating value.. Component__________Percent C___________________71

H2__________________5.6

N2__________________1.6

S____________________2.7

Ash__________________6.1

O2___________________13

Answer:

LHV = 28478.8 KJ/kg

Explanation:

The gross heating value is also the higher heating value (HHV), while the net heating value is the lower heating value (LHV).

This involves the conversion from higher heating value (HHV) to lower heating value(LHV).

Let's use the formula:

LHV = HHV - 0.212H - 0.0245M - 0.008A

We are given

HHV = 29,770 KJ/kg = 29.770MJ/kg

H = hydrogen% =5.6%

A = oxygen% = 13%

M = 0

Substituting the figures in the formula, we have:

LHV = 29.770 - 0.212*5.6 - 0.0245*0 - 0.008*13

= 29.770 - 1.1872 - 0 - 0.104

= 28.4788 MJ/kg

= 28478.8 KJ/kg

LHV = 28478.8 KJ/kg

The net heating value, LHV = 28478.8 KJ/kg

1. why is HCl not a good choice as the acid to catalyze a dehydration reaction?

Len [333]

Answer:

1) HCl contains the Cl^- which is a good nucleophile

2) 2-methyl-2- heptanol > 2-heptanol > 1-heptanol

3) see image attached

Explanation:

If the dehydration of alcohols is carried out using HCl, the chloride ion which is a good nucleophile will attack the substrate to yield an undesirable product.

The dehydration of alcohols is an E1 reaction. Recall that the ease of E1 reaction increases in the order 3°> 2°> 1°. Hence, 2-methyl-2- heptanol forms a tertiary carbocation intermediate during dehydration and has the greatest ease of dehydration.

The three products formed during the dehydration of 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanol are shown in the image attached. Two out of the three are formed by rearrangement reactions.
