calculations and organic synthesis reaction Flashcards
how do you calculate water of crystallisation
add up all of the formula masses and take them away from the formula mass that was given to you and divide by the oxidation number
how do you calculate concentration
moles / volume
m
c v
how do you calculate gas volume
moles * 24
v m 24
how do you calculate percentage yield
(actual mass/ theoretical mass )*100
How do you calculate atom economy
(Mr of desired products/ Mr of all products)*100
How do you calculate relative atomic mass from abundance
multiply all of the abundances by the their Mm and divide total mass by total abundance
Br -81 = 46%
Br -79 = 54%
(4681)(7954)=7992
7992/(46+54)=79.92
Mr = 79.92
How do you calculate empirical formula
find the ratio between the elements
what is the ideal gas equation?
p = nRT/V
What units does the volume in the ideal gas equation need to be
m3
cm3 /1000000
dm3 /1000
What do the letters in the ideal gas equation stand for and what must you remember to do
p = pressure
n = amount of substance
R = ideal gas constant
T = temperature in Kelvin so you add 273 to celsius
V = volume in m3
How do you turn an alkane into a chloroalkane
radical substitution
UV light
CH4 +Cl2= CH3Cl +HCl
How do you turn a chloroalkane into an alcohol
Nucleophilic substitution (hydrolysis)
and aqueous NaOH
warm and reflux
CH3Cl + NaOH = CH3OH +NaCl
How do you turn a chloroalkane into a nitrile
Heat with ethanol and KCN and reflux
CH3Cl +KCN = CH3CN +KCl
How do you turn a chloroalkane into a primary amine
Heat not reflux with excess ammonia and ethanol
CH3Cl +2NH3 = CH3NH2 + NH4Cl
How do you turn a primary amine into a secondary amine
Warm with a chloroalkane
CH3NH2 + C2H5Cl = CH3C2H5NH + HCl
How do you turn a secondary amine to a tertiary amine
and a tertiary amine to a quaternary ammonium salt
warm with a chloroalkane
How do you turn an alkene to an alkane
Electrophilic addition
Hydrogen and a nickel catalyst at 150C and 2 atm
CH2=CH2 +H2 = CH3CH3
