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.

A 32.4 L gas sample at STP is compressed to a volume of 28.4 L, and the temperature is increased to 352 K. What is the new press
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

1.47 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial volume (V₁): 32.4 L
  • Initial pressure (P₁): 1 atm (standard pressure)
  • Initial temperature (T₁): 273 K (standard temperature)
  • Final volume (V₂): 28.4 L
  • Final pressure (P₂): ?
  • Final temperature (T₂): 352 K

Step 2: Calculate the final pressure of the gas

We can calculate the final pressure of the gas using the combined gas law.

P₁ × V₁ / T₁ = P₂ × V₂ / T₂

P₂ = P₁ × V₁ × T₂ / T₁ × V₂

P₂ = 1 atm × 32.4 L × 352 K / 273 K × 28.4 L = 1.47 atm

HELP NOW BRAINLIST AND 15 POINTS!!!!! I'M TIMIED!!!!!
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 =  The given chemical reaction does not follow the law of conservation of mass because,

2 = Four hydrogen atoms are present in reactant side and two hydrogen atoms are present in product side.

3 = 1 ) The given chemical reaction does not follow the law of conservation of mass because,

CH₄ + O₂     →    CO₂  + H₂O

16 g  + 32 g       44 g  +  18 g

 48 g                        62 g

Law of conservation of mass:

This law stated that mass can not be created or destroyed in chemical reaction. It just changed from one to another form.

For example:

C₂H₄   +   3O₂   →    2CO₂   +  2H₂O

28 g   + 96 g    =      88 g  +  36 g

   124  g           =      124 g

Study the graph in Figure 6.32 and answer to these questions. (see attached image)
Dimas [21]

Hey there :)

We can see that the solubility of salt increases with increasing temperature. This happens with most substances.

To find out the maximum mass of copper sulfate that can be dissolved in water at these temperatures, just interpret the graph.

Considering Y-axis as g copper sulfate/100 g water and the X-axis as the temperature in °C:-

<u>1)</u>

a: <u>0 °C - 14 g of copper sulfate/100 g of water</u>

b: <u>50 °C - 34 g of copper sulfate/100 g of water</u>

c: <u>90 °C - 66 g of copper sulfate/100 g of </u><u>water</u>

<u>2)</u> From the graph, we can infer that temperature affects the solubility of the salt.

Compare and Contrast the two common forces of gravity and friction.
____ [38]

Answer:

Gravity always pulls objects such as a desk, book or person down. Thus, when you jump gravity causes you to land on the ground. Friction, however, doesn't pull objects down

Which of the following statements is incorrect? A. Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units. B. Formula mass compares th
n200080 [17]

Answer:

  • The incorrect statement is the choice <em>C. Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.</em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Choice A.</u><em><u> Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units</u></em><u>.</u>

Correct. Atomic mass units (a.m.u) is the standard unit used to express the mass of the atoms and the molecules.

Since, one atom, molecule, or formula unit is a tiny amount of material, it has a ver, very low mass, and the unit mass of a molecule is referred to one mole (6.022 × 10²³ units).

<u>2) Choice B. </u><em><u>Formula mass compares the mass of one formula unit of a substance to the mass of one atom of carbon-12</u></em><u>.</u>

Correct. The masses of atoms and compounds are referred to a standard. Such standard is the carbon-12 atom. This is, the cabon-12 atom was selected as the standard and its exact mass is 12 a.m.u.

<u>3)  Choice C. </u><em><u>Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.</u></em><u> </u>

Incorrect. Atomic mass is the mass of the atoms, but, since, the mass of one atom is so small, the atomic mass is referred to one mole. Hence, the atomic mass has units of grams per mole.

<u>4) Choice D. </u><em><u>Both molecular mass and formula mass use carbon-12 as a reference standard.</u></em>

Correct. As stated when explaining the option B, the mass of atoms, molecules, and formula units are referred to carbon-12 standard.

<u>5) Choice E. S</u><em><u>odium chloride, an ionic compound, is said to have a formula weight, but not a molecular weight.</u></em>

Correct. The reason is that ionic compounds form large structures (crystals) and, since there is not such thing as one molecule of them, they are said to have formula weight (or mass) but not a molecular weight.

The name molecules is reserved for covalent compounds, where you can formally identify molecules. E.g. Water is a molecular compound, and each molecule has molecular formula H₂O, whose mass is the molecular mass.
