After distilling your crude methyl benzoate, you set aside 4.83 grams of the purified ester. you then prepare the grignard reagent ( phenylmagnesium bromide ) by reacting 2.3 grams of magnesium with 9.45 ml of bromobenzene. you add the 4.83 grams of methyl benzoate to the freshly prepared grignard reagent to form an addition product. finally, after hydrolyzing the grignard addition product, you obtain 5 grams of the final product, triphenyl carbinol. what is the percent yield of triphenyl carbinol?

95.6 %

Explanation:

For this question, we will have 2 reactions, the formation of the grignard reagent and the formation of the alcohol. The first step then is the calculation of the maximum amount of the grignard reagent. For this, we have to convert the grams to moles and check the smallest value. To do this we have to take into account the following conversion ratios:

Molar mass of Mg = 24 g/mol

Molar mass of phenylmagnesium bromide ()= 157 g/mol

Density of bromobenzene= 1.5 g/mL

Molar ratio between Mg and  = 1:1

The smallest value is the mol of bromobenzene therefore 0.0402 mol of phenylmagnesium bromide would be produced.

The next step is repite the same steps for the reaction of formation of the alcohol. Therefore we have to find the moles of methyl benzoate, so:

Molar mass of methyl benzoate: 136.14 g/mol

The we have to divide by the coefficient of each reactive in the balance reaction. So:

Therefore the limiting reagent would be the phenylmagnesium bromide. Now, the molar ratio between the phenylmagnesium bromide and triphenyl carbinol is 2:1, so the amount of alcohol produced is 0.0201 mol triphenyl carbinol. The next step is the conversion from mol to grams of triphenyl carbinol:

Molar mass of triphenyl carbinol= 260.33 g/mol

Finally, we have to divide the obtanied solid by the calculated one:

it should be all of them because it asks if you included all of those in your answer

explanation:

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
