Phenol is a stronger acjd than ethanol because. 1.lt is more soluble in water than ethanol so that the phenol molecules have a better chance of donating protons to water molecules. 2. The ethanol molecule is stabilized by delocalization which inhibits the donation of a porton by the OH group. 3.The phenoxide ion is stabilized by delocalization involving the benzene ring, this cannot happen with the ethoxide ion.

Experimental observations show that thiocyanate (SCN- ), the conjugate base of thiocyanic acid (pKa = 1.1 at 25 °C), is quite soluble in neutral water at pH > 2. In the space provided below, explain this experimental observation. That is, why does SCN– readily dissolve in water when the pH > 2?
Keeping with the theme of autumn, one of Dr. Danahy’s favorite molecules is caffeic acid due to its presence in pumpkins. This structure serves as an antioxidant and is one of many found within pumpkins. Despite its name, it bears no resemblance to caffeine. Answer the following questions about caffeic acid. The carbonyl stretch for caffeic acid is unusually low for a carboxylic acid at 1646 cm-1. For reference, the carbonyl stretch for propanoic acid is 1716 cm-1. Explain why the carbonyl stretch occurs at a lower wavenumber for caffeic acid.
Hexanoic acid was added to an immiscible biphasic solvent sysem, water and CCl4 at 20.0OC and the equilibrium concentrations of hexanoic acid were determined to be 3.66 g/L in H2O and 67.0 g/L in CCl4. Caluclate the distrubution coeffiecent (D1) of hexanoic acid in CCl4 with respect to water.

Use Drago’s E and C parameters to calculate ΔH for the reactions of NH3 and BF3 and of NH3 and B(CH3)3. Compare your results with the reported experimental values of −71.1 and −64 kJ/mol for NH3—B(CH3)3 and −105 kJ/mol for NH3—BF3. use NH3 as the base, and put the four reactions in order of the magnitudes of their ΔH values.
A mixed melting point was determined mixing unknown with benzilic acid (p 144-152), and unknown with adipic acid (mp 150-152), and unknown with salicylic acid (m 145-155). The actual, literature reported melting point of benzilic acid (mp was 149-151), adipic acid (mp 151-3), and salicylic acid (mp 158-161). The students unknown was? How do you know you are right?
