We have that the the liquid is

  • C_2H_5OH (ethanol
  • And at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170

From the question we are told

  • A student wished to prepare <em>ethylene </em>gas by <em>dehydration </em>of ethanol at 140oC using sulfuric acid as the <em>dehydrating </em>agent.
  • A low-boiling liquid was obtained instead of ethylene.
  • What was the liquid, and how might the reaction conditions be changed to give ethylene

<h3>Ethylene formation</h3>

Generally the equation is

2C_2H_5OH------CH3CH_2O-CH_2CH_3+H_20

Therefore

with ethanol at 140oC

The product is diethyl ethen

The reaction at 170 ethylene will give

C_2H_5OH-------CH_2=CH_2+H_2O( at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170)

Therefore

The the liquid is

  • C_2H_5OH (ethanol

Which of the following weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt? Group of answer choices
SpyIntel [72]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is defined as a weak bond that is formed between an electropositive atom (generally hydrogen atom) and an electronegative atom like oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.

An ionic bond is defined as a bond formed between a metal and a non-metal and in this bond transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal. And, due to the presence of opposite charges on the combining atoms there exists a strong force of attraction.

Vander waal forces are defined as the weak electric forces which tend to attract neutral molecules towards each other in gases, liquefied and solidified gases.

Vander waal forces are very weak forces.

Thus, we can conclude that Van der walas interactions are weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt.
