When Carboxylic Acid is treated with Alcohols in the presence of acid as a catalyst it produces corresponding Esters. This reaction is called as Esterification.
 Also, this reaction is a reversible reaction and the ester formed can also hydrolyze to produce Carboxylic acid and Alcohol. This reverse reaction is called as transesterification.
The formation of Ethyl Acetate from Acetic Acid and Ethanol in the presence of acid is shown below,

when 6.0 mol of oxygen are confined in a 36L vessel at 196°c, the pressure is 8atm. what is the new pressure for oxygen expands
kykrilka [37]

<u>Answer:</u> The new pressure for oxygen gas is 6 atm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the new pressure of the gas, we use the equation given by Boyle's Law.

This law states that the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are the initial pressure and volume of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are the final pressure and volume of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=8atm\\V_1=36L\\P_2=?atm\\V_2=48L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

8atm\times 36L=P_2\times 48L\\\\P_2=6atm

Hence, the new pressure for oxygen gas is 6 atm.

Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (the solute) in water (the solvent) with a solution density of 1010 g/L. If vinegar is 0.80
Damm [24]

Answer:

4.8 %

Explanation:

We are asked the concentration in % by mass, given the molarity of the solution and its density.

0.8 molar solution means that we have 0.80 moles of acetic acid in 1 liter of solution. If we convert the moles of acetic acid to grams, and the 1 liter solution to grams, since we are given the density of solution, we will have the values necessary to calculate the % by mass:

MW acetic acid = 60.0 g/mol

mass acetic acid (the solute) = 0.80 mol x 60 g / mol = 48.00 g

mass of solution = 1000 cm³ x 1.010 g/ cm³      (1l= 1000 cm³)

                            = 1010 g

% (by mass) = 48.00 g/ 1010 g  x 100 = 4.8 %
