Consider the following reaction (with a small amount of sulfuric acid added as a catalyst): Acetic acid + Isopentyl alcohol S Isopentyl acetate + Water The above chemical equation is balanced with coefficients of 1 in front of each compound. You are given the following information: Density (g / mL) Compound Quantity Molar mass State of used (g / mole) matter at room temp Liquid Acetic acid 2.0 mL 60.05 1.049 Isopentyl alcohol 2.0 mL 88.14 0.809 Liquid Isopentyl acetate 130.2 0.876 Liquid By the way, the sulfuric acid catalyst quantity is irrelevant to this problem. Given these quantities, calculate the THEORETICAL YIELD (i.e., the maximum number of GRAMS of isopentyl acetate that could be produced) for this reaction. Keep significant figure rules in mind! N.B. 1: Which of the reactants runs out FIRST? That would be the LIMITING REACTANT, and will be the one that will be used to determine the theoretical yield. N.B. 2: The answer is 2.4 grams of isopentyl acetate. Do your calculations verify this? Show all calculations on a separate sheet of paper.

TRUE OR FALSE A student synthesizing an organic compound from 2 starting materials. it is determined that starting material X is in excess while starting material Y is the limiting reagent. It is imperative that the measurements of Y are precise in order to determine the correct number of significant figures in the calculation of the theoretical yield Distillation is used in organic chemistry to both purify a compound and determine its approximate boiling point.

The human body burns glucose (C6H12O6) for energy according to this chemical reaction: C6H12O6+6O2→ 6CO2+6H2O The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500.mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO2 and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 0.50kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO2 is 2.0 kg/m^3 .
Constants One type of gas mixture used in anesthesiology is a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen (O2), which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use. Because these two gases don't react chemically at or below 2000 psi, at typical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase, which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below -6° C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Then any gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; as the cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gas coming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O. In a test, the valve of a 500 L cylinder full of the gas mixture at 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is opened wide so that the gas rushes out of the cylinder very rapidly. Part A Why might some N20 condense during this process? This is an isochoric process in which the pressure decreases, so the temperature also decreases. Because of the rapid…
