Q3. Which of the following objects are chiral and which are achiral? a

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In this question, we have to follow the IUPAC rules. Lets analyze each compound:

a. 1-methylbutane

In this compound we have a chain of 5 carbons, so the correct name is Pentane.

b. 1,1,3-trimethylhexane

In this compound, we longest chain is made of 7 carbons, so, we have to use the name "heptane". Carbon one would be the closet one to the methyl group, so the correct name is 2,4-dimethylheptane.

c. 5-octyne

In this case, carbon 1 would be the closet one to the triplet bond. With this in mind, the correct name is oct-3-yne.

d. 2-ethyl-1-propanol

In this compound, we longest chain is made of 4 carbons, so, we have to use the name "butane". Carbon one would be the carbon with the "OH" group, so the correct name is 2-methylbutan-1-ol.

e. 2.2-dimethyl-3-butanol

In this case, carbon 1 would be the closet one to the "OH". With this in mind, the correct name is 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol.

See figure 1

The combustion of 0.1240 kg of propane in the presence of excess oxygen produces 0.3110 kg of carbon dioxide. What is the limiti

nadezda [96]

Answer:

The limiting reactant is the propane gas, C₃H₈ while the percentage yield is 83.77%

Explanation:

Here we have

Propane gas with molecular formula C₃H₈, molar mass = 44.1 g/mol combining with O₂ as follows

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Therefore, 1 mole of C₃H₈ combines with 5 moles of O₂ to produce 3 moles CO₂ and 4 moles of H₂O

Mass of propane = 0.1240 kg = 124.0 g

Number of moles of propane = mass of propane/(molar mass of propane)

The number of moles of propane = 124/44.1 = 2.812 moles

The molar mass of CO₂ = 44.01 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ = 0.3110 kg = 311.0 g

Therefore, number of moles of CO₂ = mass of CO₂/(molar mass of CO₂)

The number of moles of CO₂ = 311.0 kg/ 44.01 g/mol = 7.067 moles

Therefore, since 1 mole of propane produces 3 moles of CO₂, 2.812 moles of propane will produce 3 × 2.812 moles or 8.44 moles of CO₂

Therefore;

The limiting reactant is the propane gas, C₃H₈, since the oxygen is in excess

Hence

$The \ percentage \ yield = \frac{Actual \, yield}{Theoretical \, yield} \times 100 = \frac{7.067}{8.44} \times 100 = 83.77 \%$

The percentage yield = 83.77%.

How do you balance this equation?

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Al4C3 + 12H2O = 3CH4 + 4Al(OH)3

Explanation:

Not sure if any explanation is needed but always start with the most complex compound. In this case it is Al(OH)3. You can see that there is 4 Aluminiums on the other side so I would start by putting a 4 next to the Al(OH)3. This now gives me 12 Hydrogens and 12 Oxygens on the right side. I put a 3 next to the CH4 to balance the Carbons on the left side. This leaves me with 12 Oxygens and 24 Hydrogens on the right side. This ends up being perfect because I can put a 12 next to the H2O.
