Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A. 10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

B. 57.5% was the percent yield.

C. 7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Explanation:

$CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2H(l)+CH_2CH_3OH(l)+H^+\rightarrow CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2CH_2CH_3(l)+H_2O(l)$

Moles of butanoic acid = $\frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol$

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol$ of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 100%

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$100\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100$

Experimental yield = 10.0 g

10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

Theoretical yield of ethyl butyrate = 10.0 g

Experimental yield ethyl butyrate = 5.75 g

Percentage yield of the reaction = ?

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$=\frac{5.75 g}{10.0 g}\times 100=57.5\%$

57.5% was the percent yield.

Moles of butanoic acid = $\frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol$

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol$ of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 78.0%

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$78.0\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100$

Experimental yield = 7.80 g

7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Iron 3 oxide and carbon react to form iron and carbon dioxide. Balance the equation.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

2 Fe(iii)2O3 + 3 C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2

Explanation:

First of all, you have to translate the words into an equation.

Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> Fe + CO2

The easiest way to tackle this is to start with the Oxygens and balance them. They must balance by going to the greatest common factor which is 6. So you multiply the molecule by whatever it takes to get the Oxygens to 6

2 Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> Fe + 3 CO2

Now work on the irons. There 2 on the left and just 1 on the right. So you need to multiply the iron by 2.

2 Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2

Finally it is the turn of the carbons. There are 3 on the right, so you must make the carbon on the left = 3

2 Fe(iii)2O3 + 3 C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2

And you are done.

Answer:

nonpolar covalent bond: A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are shared equally between the two atoms. polar covalent bond: A covalent bond in which the atoms have an unequal attraction for electrons and so the sharing is unequal.
