Convert 2 butanol to 2 nitrobutane

1 answer:

The conversion of 2 - butanol to 2 - nitrobutane involves conversion of 2 butanol to 2 - bromobutane and subsequently to 2 - nitrobutane.

In order to convert 2 - butanol to 2 - nitrobutane, an SN2 reaction is first carried out in which 2 - butanol is converted to 2 - bromobutane. This reaction proceeds with inversion of configuration at the chiral carbon as expected.

This product is subsequently reacted with silver nitrite in ethanol to yield 2 - nitrobutane along side silver bromide. Some alkyl nitrite is also produced as a by product. The components of the mixture are separated by fractional distillation. The scheme of the reaction is shown in the image attached to this answer. This reaction is only applied to primary and secondary alkyl halides.

The radius of a hydrogen atom is 37 pm and its mass is 1.67 × 10-24 g. What is the density of the atom in grams per cubic centim

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

V = 4/3 * 3.1416 * (37x10-10)3

V = 2.12x10-25 cm3

d = m/V

d = 1.67x10-24 / 2.12x10-25 = 7.87 g/cm3

The difference in temperature, let's convert F to ºC:

ºC = -80-32/1.8 = -62.22 ºC

dT = -92.6 + 62.2 = -30.4 ºC

Ahat [919]

Answer:

1.784 g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

NaOH(aq) + KHC8H4O4(aq) --------> KNaC8H4O4(aq) + H2O(l)

Number of moles of NaOH reacted = 17.47/1000 * 0.5000 M

Number of moles of NaOH reacted =8.735 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of NaOH reacted with 1 mole of KHC8H4O4

Hence, 8.735 * 10^-3 moles of NaOH reacts with 8.735 * 10^-3 moles of KHP.

So,

Mass of KHP reacted = 8.735 * 10^-3 moles * 204.2 g/mol = 1.784 g

Assume the recommended single dose of an antihistamine for a child weighing between 18-23 lbs is 0.75 teaspoons (tsp). if 1.00 t

blagie [28]

We are given that 1 teaspoon is equivalent to 5 mL, therefore 0.75 teaspoon is:

0.75 teaspoon * (5 mL / 1 teaspoon) = 3.75 mL

So the mass is density times volume:

mass = (12.5 mg/5 ml) * 3.75 mL

<span>mass = 9.375 mg</span>
