Calorimetry and Standard Enthaply question: Manganese reacts with sulfuric acid to produce manganese (II) sulfate and hydrogen gas.

Mn(s) + H2SO4(aq) ---> MnSO4(aq) + H2(g) When 1.230g of Mn is combined with enough sulfuric acid to make 100.0mL of solution in a Thermo bottle calorimeter (heat capacity is 58.9 J/°C), all of the Mn reacts raising the temperature of the solution from 24.1°C to 34.5°C. (Assume that the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.18 J/g°C and the density is 1.02g/mL.)

A) Is this reaction exothermic?

B) What is the heat (q) in Kg for the reaction according to the process described above?

C) Find ∆H°rxn for the chemical reaction as written above.

D) Consider the above given reaction. How many grams of manganese are needed if 895.0kJ of heat are released?

How long will it take 10.0 ml of Ne gas to effuse through aporous barrier if it has been observed that 125 mins are required for 10.0 ml of AR gas to effuse through the same barrier?

Calculate the concentration of all species in a 0.14 M KF solution.

[K+], [F−], [HF], [OH−], [H3O+]

please give each value clearly

A) Suppose you dump a bucket of water (5.00kg at 15.0C) outside on a cold night where T = -10.0C, and the water spreads out over an area so large that the temperature of the ground remains at -10.0C, acting like an ideal “cold reservoir.” Calculate the entropy change of the water in going from 15.0C to -10.0C, and calculate the entropy change of the environment, absorbing heat while staying (approximately) at -10.0C. This problem requires you to use TWO equations for entropy change – of a substance changing temperature and for a substance with Q in or out but at constant T. I got somewhat less than 8000J/K for the “environment’s” ∆S.

B) Use your answers to part A to solve for the total entropy change of the UNIVERSE in that process (ie, add the entropy changes of all the parts, confirming that the entropy change of the UNIVERSE is positive.)

C) Some people uncomfortable with the idea of evolution try to argue against it because, they say, it says that more “ordered” organisms evolve from less ordered organisms. Since entropy is a measure of “disorder,” this can’t happen. Now suppose for a moment that if you really did calculate the entropy of a bunch of “biomass” of 1 billion years ago, full of primitive organisms and a few inorganic compounds, and the equivalent “biomass” of a few people, and you found that the entropy WAS lower for the people, indicating that, yes indeed, the more complex organisms DO have lower entropy than the equivalent “primitive stuff” of which they were made. Why does this STILL not violate the second law of thermodynamics? (Hint: is part B fundamentally different from part A of this exercise, or are they fundamentally the same?)

1) Calculate of pH of each of the following strong acid solutions: (a) 8.5 x 10^-3 M HBr, (b) 1.52 g of HNO3 in 575 mL of solution, (c) 5.00 mL of 0.250 M HClO4 diluted to 50.0 mL, (d) a solution formed by mixing 10.0 mL of 0.100 M HBr with 20.0 mL of 0.200 M HCl.

3) Latic acid (CH3CH(OH)COOH) has one acidic hydrogen. A 0.10 M solution of lactic acid has a pH of 2.44. Calculate Ka.

4) A 0.100 M solution of chloroacetic acid (ClCH2COOH) is 11.0% ionized. Using this information, calculate [ClCH2COO-], [H+], [ClCH2COOH], and Ka for chloroancetic acid.

Calculate the pH of the solution after the addition of the following amounts of 0.0656 M HNO3 to a 70.0 mL solution of 0.0750 M aziridine. The pKa of aziridinium is 8.04.

d) 77.0 mL of HNO3; Ph=

e) Volume of HNO3 equal to the equivalence point; Ph=

f) 83.8 mL of HNO3; Ph=

A) When making the decision to use column chromatography as a separation method you must consider the sample size as well as well as its chromatographic behavior (ability to be separated using an appropriate stationary and mobile phase). How does increasing the diameter of your column affect the separation of compounds? How does increasing the column length affect the separation of the compounds

What inferences can be made? NaOH was added to a blue-green solution (Fe³⁺, Ni²⁺, Mn²⁺, Cr³⁺, and/or Zn²⁺). After stirring, the solution appeared light green with no precipitate.

In the reaction A + 2B ---> 3C + D , If 93g of A and 85g of B are combined, which reactant is the limiting reagent, and what is the theoretical yield of C in grams? (MM(A)= 55g/mole, MM(B)= 48g/mole, MM(C)= 37g/mol)

Hi! I am working on a lab for Organic Chemistry and I want to make sure my answers are correct before submitting it!

Thank you in advance!

Stereoisomerism: A Model Exercise

In this experiment you will construct models with your molecular model set that illustrate the concepts of chirality, chiral center (stereogenic center, asymmetric carbon atom), enantiomers, diastereomers, and meso forms. You will also learn about two conventions, R-S and Fischer, for designating the configurations of chiral molecules.

You will be asked several questions related to each construction exercise. Record the answers and then when you have finished all of the exercises, take the assessment listed in this folder. The questions will be repeated so that you can submit your answers electronically for grading.

Chiral centers

Procedure: Construct a model* in which a tetrahedral (sp 3) carbon atom (black) has four different model atoms attached to it. Use the light blue ball, red, blue and, green polyhedrons to represent four different atoms or groups attached to the central atom (black).

1. Does the model have a plane of symmetry?

a. Yes

b. No

A carbon atom that has four different groups attached to it is a chiral center, or an asymmetric carbon atom. The carbon marked with a # in 3-methylhexane is a chiral center.

2. What groups are attached to the chiral center in 3-methylhexane?

a. Hydrogen

b. Methyl

c. Ethyl

d. n-propyl

e. n-butyl

Replace the green atom (or group) in your model with a second red atom. Now two of the groups attached to the carbon atom are identical:

3. Does the model now have a plane of symmetry?

a. Yes

b. No

4. �� Describe it.

a. Plane through the light blue ball, black polyhedron and blue polyhedron

b. Plane through a red polyhedron, black polyhedron and blue polyhedron

c. Plane through the light blue ball, black polyhedron and red polyhedron

d. Plane through a red polyhedron, black polyhedron and red polyhedron

Draw structural formulas for the following compounds, and mark any chiral centers (asymmetric carbons) with an asterisk:

l-bromobutane, 2- bromobutane, 1,2-dibromobutane,

1,3-dibromobutane, l, 4-dibromobutane, 2,3-dibromobutane.

5. Which of the compounds contain chiral centers?

a. 1-bromobutane

b. 2-bromobutane

c. 1,2-dibromobutane

d. 1,3-dibromobutane

e. 1,4-dibromobutane

f. 2,3-dibromobutane

Chirality and Enantiomers

A center of chirality (from the Greek cheir, hand) imparts the property of handedness to a molecule. In this part of the experiment, the left- or right- handedness of molecules with a chiral center will be illustrated with models.

A molecule is said to be chiral (that is, to have the property of handedness) if its mirror image is not superimposable. The mirror image of a left hand, for example, is a right hand. A molecule that is achiral has a mirror image that is superimposible. We shall see that any molecule with a plane of symmetry is achiral.

Procedure: Reconstruct the original model (carbon (black) with light blue ball, red, blue and, green polyhedrons attached). Set the model on the desktop so that the substituent light blue ball atom points toward the ceiling.

Looking down on the model and proceeding clockwise from the green atom, record the colors of the three atoms that rest on the desktop.

Now construct a second model that is the mirror image of the first, and place it on the desktop with the light blue ball atom up:

6. In which direction, clockwise or counterclockwise, must you proceed in order to list the same sequence of colors of the three atoms resting on the desk's surface?

a. Clockwise

b. Counterclockwise

Try to superimpose the two models.

7. The models are

a. Superimposable

b. Not superimposable

The two models that you have just constructed represent chiral molecules- they lack a plane of symmetry and have mirror images that are notsuperimposable. Two substances, the molecular structures of which are related as an object and its nonsuperimposable mirror image are called enantiomers. They differ from each other only in properties that have a direction or "handedness," such as, for example, the direction(clockwise or counterclockwise) in which they rotate a beam of plane-polarized light. Because of this latter property, such substances are sometimes called optical isomers. They are optically active.

Now we will examine the consequence of having at least two identical atoms or groups attached to a tetrahedral carbon atom.

Replace the green atom in each model with a red atom, so that each model has two identical groups attached to the central carbon atom:

8. Are the models still mirror images?

a. Yes

b. No

9. Does either of the models have a plane of symmetry?

a. Yes

b. No

10. Are the models superimposable?

a. Yes

b. No

11. Do the models represent identical molecules or different molecules?

a. Identical

b. Different

Place each model on the desk so that the light blue ball substituent points up.

12. To define the same sequence of colors for the three atoms resting on the desk top, must you proceed

a. Clockwise

b. Counterclockwise

c. Either way

13. Are the models chiral (handed)?

a. Yes

b. No

The models you have just studied represent achiral molecules. Their mirror images are identical. They are optically inactive. Any molecule that has a plane of symmetry is achiral.

Diastereomers and Meso Forms

For any molecule that has two or more chiral centers, it is possible to have stereoisomers that are not mirror images. Stereoisomers that are not related as enantiomers are diastereomers. Diastereomers differ in all properties, chiral and achiral.

Procedure: Construct a model with four different groups (light blue ball, blue, red, and green) attached to a central carbon atom (black). Construct another model identical to the first. (Be sure they are identical by making sure the models are superimposable.) Now remove the green substituent from each model and connect the two carbon atoms with a bond. Use this model with the two stereogenic centers for the next series of questions (14 -26).

14. How many chiral centers (asymmetric carbons) does this model have?

a. 1

b. 2

c. 3

d. 4

e. 5

Note that there are four different groups attached to each chiral center and that each chiral center has the same four groups attached.

15. Does the model have a plane of symmetry in any of its conformations?

a. Yes

b. No

Construct the mirror image of the first model.

16. Is the mirror image identical to or different from the first model?

a. Identical

b. Different

17. What term describes the two models?

a. Enantiomer

b. Diastereomer

18. Is each model chiral or achiral?

a. Chiral

b. Achiral

Now interchange a red and blue atom on the same carbon in one of the models.

19. Are the models identical or different now?

a. Identical

b. Different

20. Are they mirror images (enantiomers)?

a. Yes

b. No

21. Are they stereoisomers?

a. Yes

b. No

22. What term describes the two models?

a. Enantiomer

b. Diastereomer

Carefully examine the conformations of the model in which you interchanged the red and blue atoms.

23. Does the model have a conformation with a plane of symmetry?

a. Yes

b. No

24. Would the mirror image of this model be identical (superimposable) or different from the model itself?

a. Identical

b. Different

Verify your prediction by constructing the mirror-image model.

25. This model is

a. Chiral

b. Achiral

26. Would a molecule corresponding to this model be optically active?

a. Yes

b. No

The last model studied here represents a meso form. The model possesses two chiral centers, but they are of equal and opposite chirality. This situation arises when a molecule has two identical chiral centers. Because the molecule has a readily accessible conformation with a plane of symmetry, it is achiral and optically inactive.

Tartaric acid is a molecule that corresponds to the models constructed in this section of the experiment.

Tartaric Acid

It exists in three forms; two are optically active enantiomers, and the third is an optically inactive meso form that is a diastereomer of the optically active forms. ,

27. Draw Newman projection formulas (looking at the bond between C-2 and C-3) for the three tartaric acids. Label pairs of enantiomers and diastereomers, as well as the meso form.

When a molecule has two different chiral centers, it may exist in four optically active forms (two pairs of enantiomers). To illustrate this with the models you just used, replace one of the colored atoms on one of the carbon atoms with a black atom. There are now four distinct ways of constructing the models: two pairs of enantiomers. Construct the two pairs of enantiomers.

28. What name is given to a pair of molecules consisting of one molecule from each of the two pairs of enantiomers you just constructed?

a. Enantiomers

b. Diastereomers

c. Meso forms

The R-S Convention

The letter R (from rectus, right) or S (from sinister, left) is used to designate the configuration at a chiral center. The four atoms or groups attached to the chiral center are arranged in a priority order according to atomic number: the higher the atomic number, the higher the priority. If two atoms have the same atomic number, we move to the next atoms out from the chiral center, or even further, until we observe a difference in atomic number. We then view the molecule from the side opposite the group with the lowest priority. If the remaining three groups in order from highest to lowest priority form a clockwise array, the configuration is R; if they form a counterclockwise array, the configuration is S.

Procedure: Construct a model of 2-chlorobutane.

29. Which carbon in the chain is a chiral center?

a. 1

b. 2

c. 3

d. 4

There are four groups attached to this chiral center

.

30. Which group has the highest priority?

a. Cl

b. Methyl

c. Ethyl

d. H

31. Which group has the lowest priority?

a. Cl

b. Methyl

c. Ethyl

d. H

32. What is the priority order of the other two groups?

a. Ethyl > Methyl

b. Methyl> Ethyl

Set the model on the desktop so that it can be viewed from the side opposite the hydrogen. Put the chlorine atom at the top.

33. When viewing the model, the three remaining groups in priority- order sequence form a

a. Clockwise array and the model has a R configuration.

b. Counterclockwise array and the model has a R configuration.

c. Clockwise array and the model has a S configuration.

d. Counterclockwise array and the model has a S configuration.

Interchange any two groups attached to the chiral center.

34. What configuration does the model have now?

a. The same as before.

b. The opposite configuration.

Note that to change configuration we must disconnect and remake bonds, whereas we can change conformation by rotating groups around single bonds.

Fischer Projection Formulas

It is sometimes convenient to have a two-dimensional representation for three-dimensional molecules, particularly when we are studying stereoisomerism. One common convention, devised by the German organic chemist Emil Fischer and named after him, is described in this section

Procedure: Construct a model of an asymmetric carbon atom [with a black, a blue, a green, and a red ball attached] that corresponds to the following three-dimensional drawing:

Set the model on the desk as shown. With your left hand, tip the model to the left so that only the red and green balls rest on the table. Viewed from the top, the black and blue balls project toward you (left and right, respectively).

The convention for Fischer projection formulas is as follows: The asymmetric carbon lies in the plane of the page or paper, horizontal groups come out of the plane of the paper toward the viewer, and vertical groups recede behind the paper away from the viewer.

Save the model you have just constructed for comparison with other models that you will construct.

Let us first consider the effect of interchanging any two groups in a Fischer projection formula. Your model corresponds to formula A below:

a. Identical

b. Enantiomer

37. What generalization can you make about the interchange of any two groups in a Fischer projection formula?

b. The molecule is identical to the first.

38. If you were to make an even number of group interchanges in a Fischer projection formula, would you obtain the original molecule or its enantiomer?

a. Original molecule

b. Enantiomer of the original model

39. Do the following Fischer projections represent the same molecule or enantiomers?

a. Same molecule

b. Enantiomers

Rotation of a Fischer projection formula in the plane of the paper also affects the structure it represents.

.

Consider formula B, which corresponds to the Fischer projection formula of A rotated 90° clockwise in the plane of the paper. Build a model of formula B. (Remember Fischer Projection Formulas are two dimensional diagrams written on paper of three dimensional molecules.)

a. Zero

b. One

c. Two

d. Three

41. Is model B identical to model A, or is it the enantiomer of model A?

a. Identical

b. Enantiomer
