Friedel-Crafts alkylation requires dry conditions because AlCl3 may combine with water thereby hindering the reaction.

Friedel-Crafts involves the introduction of an alkyl group into a benzene ring. This occurs by electrophilic substitution of a proton on the aromatic ring with an alkyl group.

The set up must be free from water because water could inactivate the Lewis acid (AlCl3) due to combination of the Lewis acid with water thereby hindering the reaction.

Titanium has an HCP unit cell for which the ratio of the lattice parameters c/a is 1.58. If the radius of the Ti atom is 0.1445
Karolina [17]

The unit cell volume of the crystal is V_c = 9.9084*10^-^2^3 cm^3 / unit cell and the density of titanium is calculated as 4.71g/cm^3 while the literature value is 4.5 g/cm^3

Data;

  • radius = 0.1445 nm
  • c/a = 1.58
  • A = 46.88 g/mol

<h3>Unit Cell Volume</h3>

The unit cell volume can be calculated as

V_c = 6R^2c\sqrt{3}\\

let's substitute the values into the formula

V_c = 6 * (1.445*10^-^8)^2 * 1.58 8 * a * \sqrt{3} \\a = 2R\\V_c = 6 * (1.445*10^-^8)^2 * 1.58* 2 * 1.445*10^-^8 * \sqrt{3}\\ V_c = 9.984*10^-^2^3 cm^3 / unit cell

The unit cell volume of the crystal is V_c = 9.9084*10^-^2^3 cm^3 / unit cell

<h3>Density of Ti</h3>

The density of titanium can be calculated as

\rho = \frac{nA}{V_c N_a}

  • n = 6 for hcp
  • A = 46.88 g/mol
  • Na = Avogadro's number

let's substitute the values into the formula

\rho = \frac{nA}{V_c Na}\\ \rho = \frac{6*46.88}{9.9084*10^-^2^3* 6.023*10^2^3} \\\rho = 4.71 g/cm^3

The density of titanium is calculated as 4.71g/cm^3 while the literature value is 4.5 g/cm^3
