Question: The question is incomplete. Below is the complete question and the answer;
While ethanol (CH3CH2OH is produced naturally by fermentation, e.g. in beer- and wine-making, industrially it is synthesized by reacting ethylene CH2CH2) with water vapor at elevated temperatures. A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 50.0 L tank at 22. °C with 24. mol of ethylene gas and 24. mol of water vapor. He then raises the temperature considerably, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium determines that it contains 15.4 mol of ethylene gas and 15.4 mol of water vapor The engineer then adds another 12. mol of water, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the moles of ethanol after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
Number of moles of ethanol = 11 mol

B. Test a hypothesis by gathering data
Seriously though, what type of guy thinks "oh hey there's a transperent liquid in the science lab? yeah it's water."
Answer:The statement 'atoms gain energy during evaporation and boiling' BEST describes the energy changes associated with evaporation and boiling.
In a given substance (e.g., water), atoms gain energy when they obtain kinetic energy, i.e. when they gain movement.
Evaporation refers to the physical process where a liquid is converted to a gas (in this case, water).
These processes (evaporation and boiling) increase the kinetic energy of water molecules to the detriment of the potential energy.
In conclusion, the statement 'atoms gain energy during evaporation and boiling' BEST describes the energy changes associated with evaporation and boiling.
Answer:
Mutarotation refers to the change in the optical rotation or optical activity of a solution due to the change in the equilibrium of the two anomers. It depends upon the optical activity and ratio of the anomeric forms in the solution.
To measure the optical rotation of a given solution, a polarimeter can be used and thus the ratio of the anomeric forms can be calculated.
