Chapter 6.10, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical equation which shows the preparation reaction of octadecyl p-tolunesulfonate from the ethanol and p-tolunesulfonyl chloride is to be written.

Concept Introduction:

The nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs when alcohol reacts with appropriate sulfonyl chloride in the presence of pyridine to yield alkyl sulfonate derivative.

The leaving group is replaced by nucleophile during the nucleophilic substitution reaction.

The oxygen atom in ethanol acts as nucleophile and p-tolunesulfonyl chloride acts as an electrophile.

In nucleophilic substitution reaction nucleophile attacks on the electrophile and formed principal organic compound.

Photochemical smog is formed in part by the action of light on nitrogen dioxide. The wavelength of radiation absorbed by NO2 in this reaction is 197 nm.(a) Draw the Lewis structure of NO2 and sketch its π molecular orbitals.(b) When 1.56 mJ of energy is absorbed by 3.0 L of air at 20 °C and 0.91 atm, all the NO2 molecules in this sample dissociate by the reaction shown. Assume that each absorbed photon leads to the dissociation (into NO and O) of one NO2 molecule. What is the proportion, in parts per million, of NO2 molecules in this sample? Assume that the sample behaves ideally.
