Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange

and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring. It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+):
CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l)

Part A

Given 7.60 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100% yield?

Express your answer in grams to three significant figures.

Part B

A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.75 g of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield? Express your answer as a percent to three significant figures.Part C The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol?

Express your answer in grams to three significant figures.

Part C


The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol?

Answer:

A. 10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

B. 57.5% was the percent yield.

C. 7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Explanation:

CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2H(l)+CH_2CH_3OH(l)+H^+\rightarrow CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2CH_2CH_3(l)+H_2O(l)

A

Moles of butanoic acid = \frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 100%

Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

100\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100

Experimental yield = 10.0 g

10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

B

Theoretical yield of ethyl butyrate  = 10.0 g

Experimental yield ethyl butyrate = 5.75 g

Percentage yield of the reaction = ?

Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

=\frac{5.75 g}{10.0 g}\times 100=57.5\%

57.5% was the percent yield.

C

Moles of butanoic acid = \frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 78.0%

Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

78.0\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100

Experimental yield = 7.80 g

7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Question 20 (2 points)
sveta [45]

Answer:

becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

Explanation:

Precipitation refers to rainfall that reaches the earth.

Most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean.

When the rain falls on earth, some evaporates, some enters into the ground while some runs off into rivers and streams. Almost all of the rain water flows into the oceans or other bodies of water.

Hence, most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) How many grams of N2 are required to produce 240.0g NH3?
just olya [345]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{197.4 g}}

Explanation:

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:     28.01               17.03

            N₂ + 3H₂ ⟶ 2NH₃

m/g:                          240.0

(a) Moles of NH₃

\text{Moles of NH}_{3} = \text{240.0 g NH}_{3}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NH}_{3}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}}= \text{14.09 mol NH}_{3}

(b) Moles of N₂

\text{Moles of N$_{2}$} = \text{14.09 mol NH}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol N$_{2}$}}{\text{2 mol NH}_{3}} = \text{7.046 mol N$_{2}$}

(c) Mass of N₂

\text{Mass of N$_{2}$} =\text{7.046 mol N$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{28.01 g N$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol N$_{2}$}} = \textbf{197.4 g N$_{2}$}\\\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{197.4 g}}$ of N$_{2}$}

Answer:

BRAINLIEST PLEASE!!!

A = Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

B = Vacuole

C = Mitochondria (Plural)

D = Nucleolus

E = Cell Wall

Explanation:

This is obviously a plant cell. Animal cells do not have cell walls(E), and most animal cells will not have a vacuole(B). Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: This produces protiens (contains ribosomes) but when looked through a microscope, will appear to be smooth. The vacuole(B) is like a storage for the plant cell, and it helps support the plant cell. This is the reason why plants “droop” when you don’t water them for a long time. Mitochondia (Plural) processes nutrients for the cell. The nucleolus(D) covers the nucleus. It’s main function is to process RNA and combine it with proteins. The cell wall(E) helps support and protect the cell.
