In this experiment, benzyl and dibenzyl ketone will produce tetraphenylcyclopentadienone via aldol condensation reaction.

1.) What is a condensation reaction? What is the small molecule lost in this reaction?

2.) In this reaction, all the reactants are ketone compounds. Can condensation reactions be extended to other carbonyl compounds than ketones?

3.) What is an enol? In a tautomerization equilibrium, will the enol or the keto isomer will be favored?

4.) What is the driving force for the enolization? (what causes the enolate ion to be formed?)

5.) The reaction goes through color change. Why the color change happens in this reaction and how can this information is associated with the (predicted) success of this reaction?

6.) Side Products Possibilities:. Assume that and enolized molecule of dibenzyl ketone attacks another dibenzyl ketone. Write the overall chemical reaction.

1a. When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter.
In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 1.33 g of CaBr2(s) are dissolved in 103.70 g of water, the temperature of the solution increases from 24.23 to 25.85 °C.
Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of CaBr2(s) in kJ/mol.
Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water.
ΔHdissolution =  kJ/mol

1b. In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 21.18 g of Cs2SO4(s) are dissolved in 112.90 g of water, the temperature of the solution drops from 24.64 to 21.92 °C.
Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of Cs2SO4(s) in kJ/mol.
Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water.
ΔHdissolution =  kJ/mol

This is all the information the question gives me.

Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used with the method of standard additions to determine the concentration of cadmium in a sample of an industrial waste stream. For the addition, 10.0 μL of a 1000.0 μg/mL Cd standard was added to 10.0 mL of the unknown solution. The results obtained are shown in the table. Absorbance Reagent blank 0.028 Sample 0.480 Sample plus addition 0.887 What is the concentration of the cadmium in the waste stream sample? c = μ g / mL Later, the analyst learned that the blank was not truly a reagent blank, but water. The absorbance of the actual reagent blank, is 0.062 . Calculate the cadmium concentration using the new information for the blank. c = μ g / mL Calculate the percent error caused by using water as the blank instead of the reagent blank. error: %
