What can you infer about aspirin’s ester group?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Reil [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Option B, aspirin’s ester group provides greater digestibility to aspirin

Explanation:

Aspirin ester group has three parts

  1. carboxylic acid functional group (R-COOH)
  2. ester functional group (R-O-CO-R')
  3. aromatic group (benzene ring)

Aspirin is a weak acid and hence it cannot dissolve in water readily. The reaction of Aspirin ester group with water is as follows -

aspirin

(acetylsalicylic acid) + water → salicylic acid + acetic acid

(ethanoic acid)

Aspirin passes through the stomach and remains unchanged until it reaches the intestine where it hydrolyses ester to form the active compound.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Original temperature (T1) = - 37.16°C

Explanation:

Given:

Gas pressure (P1) = 2.75 bar

Temperature (T2) = - 20°C

Gas pressure (P2) = 1.48 bar

Find:

Original temperature (T1)

Computation:

Using Gay-Lussac's Law

⇒ P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

⇒ 2.75 / T1 = 1.48 / (-20)

⇒ T1 = (2.75)(-20) / 1.48

⇒ T1 = -55 / 1.48

⇒ T1 = - 37.16°C

Original temperature (T1) = - 37.16°C

Three common ores of iron are FeO, Fe2O3, and Fe3O4. Iron ores are often reduced to elemental iron by heating in the presence of
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Answers are explained below

Explanation:

(a)

Oxidation number of iron :

FeO = +2

Fe2O3= +3

Fe3O4 = +2 and +3 since Fe3O4 is the mixture of FeO and Fe2O3.

(b) FeO + CO ----> Fe (s) + CO2

(c) In a pure iron metallic bond is exist between the particles of Fe. But in the form of ore metals forms ionic bond with the non-metals.

Hence the properties vary.

Yes carbon steel has greater strength than that of pure iron but retains the property of iron because no chemical reaction occurs between carbon and iron.

d)

Mixing of carbon in iron is a type of physical change since there is no chemical reactions occur between the carbon and iron. Carbon atoms diffuses in the place between the iron atoms.

(f) One of the property of non-metals are brittleness. It is non ductile .

So when the percentage of carbon increases its atoms also occupying more and more free places.

And increasing the brittleness. So the iron becomes less ductile.

e)
