Methyl butanoate (C3H5COOCH3), an oily substance with a strong fruity fragrance, can be made by reacting butanoic acid (C3H, COOH) with methanol: C3H2COOH + CH3OH → C3H, COOCH3 + H2O

Use the balanced equation above to calculate the following:

a. What mass of methyl butanoate is produced from the reaction of 52.5 g of butanoic acid?

b. What mass of water is produced from the reaction of 5800. g of methanol?​

answer: -

reaction:

na + cl ⇌ nacl

balanced chemical equation:

na + 2cl ⇌ nacl2

sodium + clorine goes to form sodium chloride (table salt).

the product is nacl2.

and the reactants are na and cl.

(note: if you don’t know what ⇌ means, read below: -

⇌(double head arrow) means reversible reaction).

elements make up everything, and they combine to make compounds.

the answer is c

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 :

equation 2 :

equation 3 :

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 :

let us add equation 1 & 4

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol
