The [α] of pure quinine, an antimalarial drug, is −165. If a solution contains 86% quinine and 14% of its enantiomer (ee = 72%),

ratelena [41]

Answer : The [α] for the solution is, -118.8

Explanation :

Enantiomeric excess : It is defined as the difference between the percentage major enantiomer and the percentage minor enantiomer.

Mathematically,

$\%\text{ Enantiomer excess}=\%\text{ Major enantiomer}-\%\text{ Minor enantiomer}$

Given:

% major enantiomer = 86 %

% minor enantiomer = 14 %

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ Enantiomer excess}=86\%-14\%=72\%$

$\text{ Enantiomer excess}=\frac{72}{100}=0.72$

Now we have to calculate the [α] for the solution.

$[\alpha]=\text{Enantiomer excess}\times [\alpha]_{Pure}$

$[\alpha]=0.72\times -165$

$[\alpha]=-118.8$

Thus, the [α] for the solution is, -118.8

A 21.82 gram sample of an organic compound containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 21.33 grams of CO2 and 4

morpeh [17]

Answer: The molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_2H_2O_4$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=21.33g$

Mass of $H_2O=4.366g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 21.33 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 21.33=5.82g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 4.366 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 4.366=0.485g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (21.82) - (5.82 + 0.485) = 15.515 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{5.82g}{12g/mole}=0.485moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.485g}{1g/mole}=0.485moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{15.515g}{16g/mole}=0.969moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.485 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.485}{0.485}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.485}{0.485}=1$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.969}{0.485}=1.99\approx 2$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 1 : 2

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_1H_{1}O_2=CHO_2$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 90.04 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 45 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{90.04g/mol}{45g/mol}=2$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 2)}H_{(1\times 2)}O_{(2\times 2)}=C_2H_2O_4$

Thus, the molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_2H_2O_4$

Changes in matter occur every day. There are two types of ways matter can be altered; physically and chemically. Physical changes do not change the composition of the matter while chemical changes occur when one or more substances turn into a completely new substance. Physical changes can be seen through an altering of the substances physical property. A substances physical property is observed and measured without changing the composition of the subject. Descriptive words that would help to identify a substance’s physical property include hard, soft, brittle, flexible, heavy, and light just to name a few. Let’s say you’re eating, throughout the day your stomach starts to growl that is what happens when your stomach is digesting your food. Digestion is an example of chemical change. Chemical change happens every day and more than half the time we don’t realize it whether it’s metal starting to rust, or our food starting to rot. Physical change can happen when your popsicle starts to melt, or your water starting starting to boil. These are examples of physical change.
