The functional groups in an organic compound can frequently be deduced from its infrared absorption spectrum. A compound contain

ing C, H, and O exhibits intense absorption at 1720 cm-1. No additional information is available. List possible classes for which there is positive evidence.
Relative absorption intensity: (s)=strong, (m)=medium, (w)=weak.

What functional class(es) does the compound belong to?
List only classes for which evidence is given here. Attach no significance to evidence not cited explicitly.
Do not over-interpret exact absorption band positions. None of your inferences should depend on small differences like 10 to 20 cm-1.

a. alkane (List only if no other functional class applies.)
b. alkene h. amine
c. terminal alkyne i. aldehyde or ketone
d. internal alkyne j. carboxylic acid
e. arene k. ester
f. alcohol l. nitrile
g. ether

Answer:

The class of this compound is <u>aldehyde or ketone (i).</u>

Explanation:

Absorption peak at 1720 cm-1 shows the presence of a carbonyl group, possibly an aldehyde or ketone with C=O bond.

Further information on molecular formula would be required for structural elucidation.

What are all the intermolecular forces present in a sample of BrF?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

dipole-dipole

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces exists between the molecules of a substance in a particular state of matter.

The type of intermolecular forces present in  a substance is determined by the electronegativity difference between the atoms that compose the substance.

There is a non zero electronegativity difference  between Br and F hence the molecule is polar and the intermolecular forces between the molecules of BrF are dipole-dipole forces.

Medicinal “ether" is produced when ethyl alcohol is treated with an acid. How many grams of
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

34.3 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 CH₃CH₂OH ⇒ CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 50.0 g of CH₃CH₂OH

The molar mass of CH₃CH₂OH is 46.07 g/mol.

50.0 g × 1 mol/46.07 g = 1.09 mol

Step 3: Calculate the theoretical moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ produced

The molar ratio of CH₃CH₂OH to CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ is 2:1. The moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ theoretically produced are 1/2 × 1.09 mol = 0.545 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the real moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ produced

The percent yield of the reaction is 85%.

0.545 mol × 85% = 0.463 mol

Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.463 moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃

The molar mass of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ is 74.12 g/mol.

0.463 mol × 74.12 g/mol = 34.3 g

How many grams of water will be produced from 50 g hydrogen reacting with 50 g oxygen?
DanielleElmas [232]

We need to first come up with a balanced equation:


4H+O_{2} → 2H_{2}O


We know that the molar ratio of hydrogen to oxygen to water now is 4:1:2.


Converting the amount of grams given to moles is as follows:


Hydrogen: \frac{1mole}{1.008g}*50g=49.6mol


Oxygen: \frac{1mole}{15.999g}*50g=3.125mol


We know now that the limiting reactant is oxygen. We can then know that the number of moles of water are produced are double the number of moles of oxygen used due to the ratio that we established at the beginning - 4:1:2.


So we now can use 6.25 moles of water as the amount produced.


Then we convert moles of water to grams:


\frac{18.015g}{1mole} *6.25mol=112.59g


Now we know that there are 112.59g of water produced when we start with 50g of hydrogen and 50g of water.
