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.

Find the mass in grams of 4.52
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Mass = 1274 .64 g it would be option C if it is converted into kilogram

1274 .64 / 1000 = 1.27 Kg

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of C₂₀H₄₂ = 4.52 mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.0 g/mol

Mass of C₂₀H₄₂ = ?

Solution:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Molar mass = 20× 12 + 42× 1.0 = 282 g/mol

Now we will put the values in formula:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

4.52 mol = mass / 282 g /mol

Mass = 4.52 mol × 282 g/mol

Mass = 1274 .64 g

Zinc has a specific heat capacity of 0.390 J/goC. What is its molar heat capacity? Enter your answer numerically to three signif
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The answer to your questions is  Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C  

Explanation:

Data

Heat capacity = 0.390 J/g°C

Molar heat capacity = ?

Process

1.- Look for the atomic number of Zinc

     Z = 65.4 g/mol

2.- Convert heat capacity to molar heat capacity

       (0.390 J/g°C)(65.4 g/mol)

- Simplify and result

   Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C

How many moles of hydrogen gas can be produced if 0.78 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with excess solid zinc according to the
White raven [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is It will be formed 0.39 moles of H₂

Explanation:

Data

moles of H₂ = ?

moles of HCl = 0.78

moles of Zinc = excess

Balanced chemical reaction

              2 HCl  +  Zn  ⇒  1 H₂  +  ZnCl₂

Process

1.- Use proportions to solve this problem. Consider the coefficients of the balanced reaction.

               2 moles of HCl ---------------------- 1 mol of H₂

               0.78 moles of HCl -----------------  x

               x = (0.78 x 1) / 2

- Simplification

              x = 0.78 / 2

- Result

              x = 0.39 moles of H₂
