Chapter 18, Problem 18.21P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Way in which the given observation bears on the formation of a terahedral carbonyl addition intermediate during acid-catalysed easter hydrolyis, the corresponding transformation has to be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Transesterification is the process of formation of a new ester molecule from the reaction of alcohol and an ester. This is like hydrolysis of ester but here nucleophile is alcohol molecule instead of H2O. As alkoxide groups have same basicity, therefore, an excess amount of alcohol is used. The addition of an acid also increases the rate of reaction by protonating the carbonyl oxygen atom. A general transesterification is  written as,

For a particular hypothetical reaction, A+B →2C, the value of AG° is -125 kJ/mol. What is the value of AG for this reaction at 35°C when [A] = 0.10 M, [B] = 0.05 M, and [C] = 2.0 × 10¹ M?
In an experiment, 74.3 g of metallic copper was heated to 100.0°C and then quickly dropped into 200.0 mL of water in a calorimeter. The heat capacity of the calorimeter with the water was 875 J/°C. The initial temperature of the calorimeter was 27.5°C, and the final temperature after addition of the metal was 29.8°C. What is the value of the molar heat capacity of copper?
The Haber-Bosch process permits the direct conversion of molecular nitrogen to ammonia, which can be used in large-scale fertilizer production. Given the balanced Haber-Bosch reaction and using the bond energies in the table below, estimate the enthalpy change associated with the reaction.
