A mixture of benzoic acid and naphthalene was dissolved in tert-butyl methyl ether and the resulting solution was extracted with

aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The lower layer was separated and to it was added concentrated hydrochloric acid, upon which a white precipitate formed. What was the structure of the precipitate?

Answer:

C₆H₅COOH Benzoic Acid

Explanation:

Here we are using the extraction method to separate  benzoic acid from naphtalene in the  ether solution  by reacting it with the base sodium bicarbonate to produce the salt sodium benzoate  ( naphtalene remains in the organic layer )  .

The sodium benzoate  is completely soluble in the aqueous layer being a salt, and  reacts with hydrochloric acid ( again an acid base reaction ) which precipitates the benzoic acid  since the it is insoluble in water hence  separating it.

The answers are in the explanation.

Explanation:

The energy required to convert 10g of ice at -10°C to water vapor at 120°C is obtained per stages as follows:

Increasing temperature of ice from -10°C - 0°C:

Q = S*ΔT*m

Q is energy, S specific heat of ice = 2.06J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 0°C - -10°C = 10°C and m is mass of ice = 10g

Q = 2.06J/g°C*10°C*10g

Q = 206J

Change from solid to liquid:

The heat of fusion of water is 333.55J/g. That means 1g of ice requires 333.55J to be converted in liquid. 10g requires:

Q = 333.55J/g*10g

Q = 3335.5J

Increasing temperature of liquid water from 0°C - 100°C:

Q = S*ΔT*m

Q is energy, S specific heat of ice = 4.18J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 100°C - 0°C = 100°C and m is mass of water = 10g

Q = 4.18J/g°C*100°C*10g

Q = 4180J

Change from liquid to gas:

The heat of vaporization of water is 2260J/g. That means 1g of liquid water requires 2260J to be converted in gas. 10g requires:

Q = 2260J/g*10g

Q = 22600J

Increasing temperature of gas water from 100°C - 120°C:

Q = S*ΔT*m

Q is energy, S specific heat of gaseous water = 1.87J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 20°C and m is mass of water = 10g

Q = 1.87J/g°C*20°C*10g

Q = 374J

Total Energy:

206J + 3335.5 J + 4180J + 22600J + 374J =

30695.5J =

30.7kJ
