Taking advantage of their large differences in pKa values, describe how a mixture of phenol and benzoic acid in diethyl ether so
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

By adding bicarbonate.

Explanation:

The pka of the phenol (C₆H₅OH) is 10 and the pka of the benzoic acid (C₆H₅COOH) is 4, which means that the benzoic acid is a stronger acid than phenol, so if we want to separate phenol from benzoic acid in diethyl ether we need to first use a weak base that will react with benzoic acid and not with the phenol:  

C₆H₅-COOH + HCO₃⁻  ⇄  C₆H₅-COO⁻  +  H₂CO₃

C₆H₅-OH + HCO₃⁻  ⇄  no reaction

The reaction of the benzoic acid with bicarbonate will produce the benzoate ion that will be soluble in the aqueous layer, while the phenol will remain dissolved in the organic layer, so we can separate the two of them by the separation of the two immiscible layers.      

Having the two layers separated, the benzoic acid can be recovered from the aqueous layer by adding HCl:

C₆H₅-COO⁻ + HCl  ⇄  C₆H₅-COOH + Cl⁻

<u>This acid will precipitate from the aqueous solution, and the solid can be isolated by filtration</u>.  

The phenol in the organic layer can be dissolved into an aqueous layer by the adding of a strong base like NaOH:

C₆H₅-OH + OH⁻  ⇄  C₆H₅-O⁻ + H₂O

The phenoxide ion soluble in the aqueous layer can be recovered later by the adding of HCl, which will form the original phenol:

C₆H₅-O⁻ + HCl  ⇄  C₆H₅-OH + Cl⁻  

<u>The precipitated phenol can be isolated by filtration. </u>

This way we can separate a mixture of phenol and benzoic acid in diethyl ether solution.  

I hope it helps you!

What volume of 0.500 M HNO3(aq) must completely react to neutralize 100.0 milliliters of 0.100 M KOH(aq)?
asambeis [7]
KOH+ HNO3--> KNO3+ H2O<span>
From this balanced equation, we know that 1 mol HNO3= 1 mol KOH (keep in mind this because it will be used later).

We also know that 0.100 M KOH aqueous solution (soln)= 0.100 mol KOH/ 1 L of KOH soln (this one is based on the definition of molarity).

First, we should find the mole of KOH:
100.0 mL KOH soln* (1 L KOH soln/ 1,000 mL KOH soln)* (0.100 mol KOH/ 1L KOH soln)= 1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH.

Now, let's find the volume of HNO3 soln:
1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH* (1 mol HNO3/ 1 mol KOH)* (1 L HNO3 soln/ 0.500 mol HNO3)* (1,000 mL HNO3 soln/ 1 L HNO3 soln)= 20.0 mL HNO3 soln.

The final answer is </span>(2) 20.0 mL.<span>

Also, this problem can also be done by using dimensional analysis. 

Hope this would help~ </span>

a sealed container filled with argon gas at 35 c has a pressure of 832 torr. if the volume of the container is decreased by a fa
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

If the volume of the container is decreased by a factor of 2 the pressure is is increased by the same factor to 1664 torr.

Explanation:

Here we have Boyle's law which states that, at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure

V ∝ 1/P or V₁·P₁ = V₂·P₂

Where:

V₁ = Initial volume

V₂ = Final volume = V₁/2

P₁ = Initial pressure = 832 torr

P₂ = Final pressure  = Required

From V₁·P₁ = V₂·P₂ we have,

P₂ = V₁·P₁/V₂ = V₁·P₁/(V₁/2)

P₂  = 2·V₁·P₁/V₁ = 2·P₁ = 2× 832 torr = 1664 torr

Is the osmosis egg challenge a chemical reaction?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Answer is C because in exothermic reactions, energy releases.

in Cellular respiration,

ATP+H20 (water) = ADP+ Pi + Energy

So celullar respiration is exothermic and releases energy
