Chapter 15, Problem 27CI
The plastic known as PETE (polyethyleneterphthalate) is used to make plastic soft drink bottles and containers for salad dressing, shampoos, and dishwashing liquids. PETE is made from terphthalic acid and ethylene glycol. Today, PETE is the most widely recycled of all the plastics. In one year,
Plastic bottles made of PETE are ready to be recycled.
- Draw the line−angel formula for the ester formed from one molecule of terephthalic acid and one molecule of ethylene glycol.
- Draw the line−angle formula for the product formed when a second molecule of ethylene glycol reacts with the ester you drew in part a.
- How many kilograms of PETE are recycled in one year?
- What volume, in liters, of PETE is recycled in one year?

- 1. For each of the following statements, indicate whether they are true of false. ⚫ the terms primary, secondary and tertiary have different meanings when applied to amines than they do when applied to alcohols. • a tertiary amine is one that is bonded to a tertiary carbon atom (one with three C atoms bonded to it). • simple five-membered heteroaromatic compounds (e.g. pyrrole) are typically more electron rich than benzene. ⚫ simple six-membered heteroaromatic compounds (e.g. pyridine) are typically more electron rich than benzene. • pyrrole is very weakly basic because protonation anywhere on the ring disrupts the aromaticity. • thiophene is more reactive than benzene toward electrophilic aromatic substitution. • pyridine is more reactive than nitrobenzene toward electrophilic aromatic substitution. • the lone pair on the nitrogen atom of pyridine is part of the pi system.arrow_forwardThe following reactions are NOT ordered in the way in which they occur.
