Describe the displacement method for measuring the volume of an object

jeyben [28]

<span>Volume is a measure of the amount of space an object takes up. When a cylinder is submerged in the water it pushes water out of the way. If you measure the amount the water level increases, you can find the volume of the water pushed out of the way. </span>

Please help me with this basic organic conversion.<br>use the shortest way to do it

jonny [76]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

This conversion must go through a sequence of steps as i have shown in the image attached to this answer.

The acetone is converted to propan-2-ol using LiAlH4, THF and acid. The propan-2-ol may be converted to propene by E2 elimination. Addition of HBr yields 2-bromo propane.

The Wurtz reaction converts 2-bromo propane to 2,3- dimethyl butane. This can be brominated in the presence of light to yield 3-bromo-2,3-dimethyl butane. Elimination of HBr using a base leads to the formation of the required product as shown.

Catalyst

Hoochie [10]

a. volume of NO : 41.785 L

b. mass of H2O : 18 g

c. volume of O2 : 9.52 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

4 NH₃ (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (l)

Required

a. volume of NO

b. mass of H2O

c. volume of O2

Solution

Assume reactants at STP(0 C, 1 atm)

Products at 1000 C (1273 K)and 1 atm

a. mol ratio NO : O2 from equation : 4 : 5, so mo NO :

$\tt \dfrac{4}{5}\times 0.5=0.4$

volume NO at 1273 K and 1 atm

$\tt V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}=\dfrac{0.4\times 0.08206\times 1273}{1}=41.785~L$

b. 15 L NH3 at STP ( 1mol = 22.4 L)

$\tt \dfrac{15}{22.4}=0.67~mol$

mol ratio NH3 : H2O from equation : 4 : 6, so mol H2O :

$\tt \dfrac{6}{4}\times 0.67=1$

mass H2O(MW = 18 g/mol) :

$\tt mass=mol\times MW=1\times 18=18~g$

c. mol NO at 1273 K and 1 atm :

$\tt n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}=\dfrac{1\times 35.5}{0.08206\times 1273}=0.34$

mol ratio of NO : O2 = 4 : 5, so mol O2 :

$\tt \dfrac{5}{4}\times 0.34=0.425$

Volume O2 at STP :

$\tt 0.425\times 22.4=9.52~L$
