Answer:
- 602 mg of CO₂ and 94.8 mg of H₂O
Explanation:
The<em> yield</em> is measured by the amount of each product produced by the reaction.
The chemical formula of <em>fluorene</em> is C₁₃H₁₀, and its molar mass is 166.223 g/mol.
The <em>oxidation</em>, also know as combustion, of this hydrocarbon is represented by the following balanced chemical equation:
To calculate the yield follow these steps:
<u>1. Mole ratio</u>
<u />
<u>2. Convert 175mg of fluorene to number of moles</u>
- Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
<u>3. Set a proportion for each product of the reaction</u>
a) <u>For CO₂</u>
i) number of moles
ii) mass in grams
The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01g/mol
- mass = number of moles × molar mass
- mass = 0.013686 moles × 44.01 g/mol = 0.602 g = 602mg
b) <u>For H₂O</u>
i) number of moles
ii) mass in grams
The molar mass of H₂O is 18.015g/mol
- mass = number of moles × molar mass
- mass = 0.00526 moles × 18.015 g/mol = 0.0948mg = 94.8 mg
1) As can be seen from any 1H NMR chemical shift ppm tables, hydrogens which have δ values from 2ppm to 2.3ppm are hydrogens from carbon which is bonded to a carbonyl group. From this, we can conclude that our hydrogens belong to the type, but from 2 different alkyl groups because of 2 different signals.
2) So, one alkyl group is CH3 and second one can be CH or CH2.
3) If we know that ratio between two types of hydrogens is 3:2, it can be concluded that second alkyl group is CH2.
4) Finally, we don't have any other signals and it indicates that part of the compound which continues on CH2 is exactly the same as the first part.
The ratio remains the same, 3:2 ie 6:4
