1.4 State ONE function of the wet paper towel in the opening of the test tube.
1.5 Write down the IUPAC name of an ester fomed.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Esterification is a reaction that involves the combination of an alkanoic acid and an alkanol. The product is always a sweet smelling substance.

Sulphuric acid acts as a catalyst in this reaction because it is a dehydrating agent thereby pushing the equilibrium position towards the right by the removal of water molecules.

The test tubs is heated in a water bath and not directly moved the flame because the alcohol is flammable. Also heating in a water bath helps to separate the reaction mixture from the newly formed ester.

Esters are used in industries that produces soaps and perfumes. There is a great need for the use of fragrances which are ester compounds in these industries.

The wet paper towel in the opening of the test tube cools the top of the test tube. It usually serves as a kind of condenser preventing an excess loss of vapour from the reaction mixture.

The reaction of pentanol and ethanoic acid yields pentyl ethanoate according to IUPAC nomenclature.

A student obtains a beaker containing a solution that is determined to have a hydrogen ion
concentration (H+) of 6.7x10-14. Based on this information, please answer the following
questions:
a) What is the pH of the solution?
b) is the solution acidic, neutral or basic?

Answers

Answer:

pH = 13.1

Basic

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Hydrogen ion concentration ([H⁺]): 6.7 × 10⁻¹⁴ M

Step 2: Calculate the pH of the solution

We will use the definition of pH.

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 6.7 × 10⁻¹⁴ = 13.1

When pH < 7, the solution is acid.When pH = 7, the solution is neutral.When pH > 7, the solution is basic.

Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone. If Chrysanthenone has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s); what is its molecular formula? Enter the formula in the form CH first, then all other atoms in alphabetical order; do not use subscripts. The formula is case-sensitive.

Answers

Answer:

the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone,

it has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s).

molecular formula = ?

we know that ketone contain 1 oxygen and mass of oxygen is 16

so mass of the C and H remaining will be;

⇒ 150 - 16 = 134

Now we determine the number of C atoms;

⇒ 134 / 13 = 10

hydrocarbon with 10 hydrogen atom have CnH2n+2 means

⇒ ( 10 × 2 ) +2 = 22 hydrogens

But then we have 3 unsaturation meaning 6 hydrogens less and also we have ring meaning 2 more hydrogens

⇒ 22 - 6 - 2 = 14

Hence the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O

what is electron configuration of oxygen in its excited state​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1 {s}^{2} 2 {s}^{2} 2 {p}^{4} [/tex]

OR

[tex]2 : 6[/tex]

Answer:

If we look at the ground state (electrons in the energetically lowest available orbital) of oxygen, the electron configuration is [tex]1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{4}[/tex] . If the element were to become excited, the electron could occupy an infinite number of orbitals. However, in most texts, the example will be the next available one. So for oxygen, it might look like this:  [tex]1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{3}3s^{1}[/tex]  - where the valence electron now occupies the 3s orbital in an excited (i.e. not ground) state.

So, the electron configuration of oxygen in its excited state​ is [tex]1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{3}3s^{1}[/tex].

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical equation for the reaction for the production of potassium permanganate, we can see a 2:2 mole ratio of this product to the starting manganese (II) oxide, which means, we can calculate the theoretical yield of the former via stoichiometry:

[tex]m_{KMnO_4}=50.0gMnO_2*\frac{1molMnO_2}{86.94gMnO_2}*\frac{2molKMnO_4}{2molMnO_2} *\frac{158.034gKMnO_4}{1molKMnO_4} \\\\m_{KMnO_4}=90.9gKMnO_4[/tex]

A mixture of 3 moles of N2, 5 moles of CO2, and 10moles of Cl2 exert a total pressure of 1120 mmHg. What is the partial pressure of CO2?

Answers

Answer:

A mixture of 3 moles of N2, 5 moles of CO2, and 10moles of Cl2 exert a total pressure of 1120 mmHg. What is the partial pressure of CO2?

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures:

The partial pressure of a gas can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]the partial pressure of a gas = mole fraction of the gas * total pressure[/tex]

Partial pressure of CO2:

[tex]partial pressure of CO2= total pressure * mole fraction of CO2\\\\Mole fraction of CO2=\frac{number of moles of CO2}{total number of moles of all the gases} \\mole fraction of CO2=\frac{5mol}{3mol+5mol+10mol} = 5/18\\Partial pressure of CO2=\frac{5}{18} * 1120mmHg\\ =311.1mmHg[/tex]

Hence, the partial pressure of CO2 is 311.1mmHg.

What is the concentration of a solution that is made by diluting 50.0 mL of a 0.40 M NaCl solution to a final volume of 1000.0 mL?​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.020 M.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the equation M1V1 = M2V2, where M represents the molarity of the solution and V represents the volume of solution.  Since we are given that the original solution is 50 mL and 0.40 M, these values are V1 and M1, respectively.  The solution after dilution has a volume of 1000 mL, so this value is V2.  We are solving for the molarity after dilution, which represents M2.

If we plug in the values specified above, we get the following:

M1V1 = M2V2

(0.40 M)(50.0 mL) = (M2)(1000.0 mL)

Solving for M2, we get:

M2 = 0.020 M

Notice that our answer has 2 significant figures because 0.40 has 2 significant figures, the least of any values given in the problem.

Therefore, the answer is 0.020 M.

Hope this helps!

Atmospheric water generator extract water from the air (humid air) through condensation. Extracted water then cools down to temperature below its dew point  thereby producing potable drinking water.

Answer:

A device that collects water from humid ambient air is known as an atmospheric water generator. Condensation is the process of extracting water vapor from the air by chilling it below its dew point, exposing it to desiccants, or pressurizing it. An AWG, unlike a dehumidifier, is meant to make the water drinkable. Because there is nearly always a little amount of water in the air that may be collected, AWGs are useful in situations where clean drinking water is difficult or impossible to get. Cooling and desiccants are the two most common ways used.

1. You find a separatory funnel set up in a fume hood. There are clearly two visible layers. Describe a method you could use to determine which layer is the aqueous layer.

Answers

Answer:

You find a separatory funnel set up in a fume hood. There are clearly two visible layers. Describe a method you could use to determine which layer is the aqueous layer.

Explanation:

In the separating funnel, the liquid with less density exists at the top layer and the liquid with greater density will exist at the bottom layer.

To identify the aqueous layer, add a bit of water to the separating funnel.

Then, observe where the water will go and mix.

If it mixes with the bottom layer, then the bottom layer is the aqueous layer.

If water mixes with the top layer, then top layer is the aqueous layer.

A method we could use to determine which layer is the aqueous layer is by adding 2-4 drops of water in the separatory funnel.

Explanation:

A separatory funnel is a glass apparatus used in labs to separate two immiscible liquids from each other.The two liquids will be present distinctly in form of two different layers one on the other.The liquid at the bottom is with higher density in comparison to the liquid layer at the top which is with lower density.It is mainly used to separate the layer of organic compounds from the aqueous layer.One way to determine the aqueous layer in the separatory funnel is to add 2-4 drops of water to the separatory funnel and observe in which layer the water drops get invisible that is mixed up.The layer in which water drop mixes will experience a small increase in its volume and that will be the aqueous layer.Water drops will not mix with the organic layer can be easily observed with eyes.

So, from this, we can conclude that a method we could use to determine which layer is the aqueous layer is by adding 2-4 drops of water in the separatory funnel.
