Question

         what is the difference between these two the aldo condensation reaction was preformed 

Part A

NaoH= 2.5g = 0.0625 mol

Benzaldehyde= 2.65 g =0.0250 mol

Acetone 0.725 g = 0.0125 mol

Theoretical yield=0.0125 mol

Actual yield= 2.1g

Percent yield=71.67%

Expected melting point= 110.5-112 degree Celsius

Melting point observered= 112 degree Celsius

Part B

acetophenone 0.5 g, 4.2 mmol

Para-methylbenzaldehyde 0.5 g, 4.2 mmol

NaOH=0.18g =  mol

Theroretical yield=0.93g =0.0519 mol

Percent yield=76.8%

Actual yield= 0.715 g

Melting point observered= 93 degree Celsius

Expected melting point =93-94.5 degree Celsius
