Aspirin that has been stored for a long time may give a vinegar like odour and give a purple colour with FeCl3. What reaction wo
1 answer:
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The IUPAC name of aspirin is 2-Acetoxybenzoic acid. It is composed of an acetoxy moiety and a benzoic acid moiety.
The compound can be hydrolysed under prolonged storage conditions to yield acetic acid which causes the vinegar like odour.
Also, one of the products of this hydrolysis bears a phenol group which reacts with FeCl3 to give a purple color.

Answer:
The time required to melt the frost is 3.25 hours.
Explanation:
The time required to melt the frost dependes on the latent heat of the frost and the amount of heat it is transfered by convection to the air .
The heat transferred per unit area can be expressed as:
being hc the convective heat transfer coefficient (2 Wm^-2K^-1) and ΔT the difference of temperature (20-0=20 °C or K).
If we take 1 m^2 of ice, with 2 mm of thickness, we have this volume
The mass of the frost can be estimated as
Then, the amount of heat needed to melt this surface (1 m²) of frost is
The time needed to melt the frost can be calculated as
