The balanced chemical equation is given as:
2CH3CH2OH(l) → CH3CH2OCH2CH3(l) + H2O(l)
We are given the yield of CH3CH2OCH2CH3 and the amount of ethanol to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point for the calculations.
Theoretical amount of product produced:
329 g CH3CH2OH ( 1 mol / 46.07 g ) ( 1 mol CH3CH2OCH2CH3 / 2 mol CH3CH2OH ) (74.12 g / mol ) = 264.66 g CH3CH2OCH2CH3
% yield = .775 = actual yield / 264.66
actual yield = 205.11 g CH3CH2OCH2CH3
Answer:
A salt
Explanation:
When an acid and a base are placed together, they react to neutralize the acid and base properties, producing a salt. The H(+) cation of the acid combines with the OH(-) anion of the base to form water. The compound formed by the cation of the base and the anion of the acid is called a salt
The answer is B) gain 8 electrons
