The ester below can be separated into phenol and an acetate salt, via saponification: heating the ester with a strong base, such

as sodium hydroxide, will produce phenol and sodium acetate. the two chemicals can then be separated by heat and filtration.

I found a similar question online which will help me answer your incomplete question. To make it easier, show all the elements of the compound given. It is shown in the second picture attached.

a.) The formula for unsaturation number is shown in the 3rd picture attached. Following this, 
n = 8
m = 2(8) + 2 + 0 + 0 - 0 = 18
Thus,
x = Unsaturation number = (18 - 8)/2 = 5
<em>The unsaturation number is 5.</em>

b.) The molar mass of C is 12.01 g/mol; H is 1 g/mol; O is 16 g/mol. So, the molecular weight is:
Molecular weight = 12.01(8) + 8(1) + 2(16) = 136.08 g/mol
<em>The molecular weight of the ester is 136.08 g/mol.</em>

could you please explain operations with scientific notation using this example. 5 × 10³ + 4.3 × 10⁴ i dont understand how to so
TEA [102]

Explanation:

The scientific notation:

a\times10^k

where

1\leq a and k is integer.

We have the example:

(5\times10^3)+(4.3\times10^4)

You can write the numbers in a "normal" form:

5\times10^3=5\times1000=5000\\\\4.3\times10^4=4.3\times10000=43000

Make the sum:

5000+43000=48000

And next write it in the scientific notation:

48000=4\underbrace{8000}_{\leftarrow4}=4.8000\times10000=4.8\times10^4

<h3>Other method:</h3>

You can add numbers in scientific notation if the power of tens in both number is the same.

Therefore you must convert the first number:

5\times10^3=0.5\times10\times10^3=0.5\times10^4

Now, you can make the sum:

(5\times10^3)+(4.3\times10^4)=0.5\times10^4+4.3\times10^4=(0.5+4.3)\times10^4=4.8\times10^4
