2A. What is the theoretical yield and limiting reagent for the Friedel Crafts acylation reaction of toluene as described in the experiment provided if the reaction is started with 5 g of aluminum chloride, 25 mL of dichloromethane (total), 3.5 g acetyl chloride, and 3.7 mL of toluene? 2B. What are the safety precautions used in the experimental procedure provided to prevent exposure to HCI gas? 2C. Write the separation scheme for the isolation of 4-methyl acetophenone from the reaction mixture in the experiment provided.
Catalysis and Enzymatic Reactions
Catalysis is the kind of chemical reaction in which the rate (speed) of a reaction is enhanced by the catalyst which is not consumed during the process of reaction and afterward it is removed when the catalyst is not used to make up the impurity in the product. The enzymatic reaction is the reaction that is catalyzed via enzymes.
Lock And Key Model
The lock-and-key model is used to describe the catalytic enzyme activity, based on the interaction between enzyme and substrate. This model considers the lock as an enzyme and the key as a substrate to explain this model. The concept of how a unique distinct key only can have the access to open a particular lock resembles how the specific substrate can only fit into the particular active site of the enzyme. This is significant in understanding the intermolecular interaction between proteins and plays a vital role in drug interaction.
This must be typed/digitally illustrated. It CANNOT be hand-drawn. (it will be marked as wrong if it is hand-drawn)
Please answer 2C (see 2a and 2b for information supporting it)
