- Cloth can be waterproofed by coating it with a silicone layer. This is done by exposing the cloth to (CH3)2SiCl2 vapor. The silicon compound reacts with OH groups on the doth to form a waterproofing film (density = 1.0 g/cm3) of [(CH3)2SiO]n, where n is a large integer number. n (CH3)2SiCl2 + 2n OH 2n Cl + n H2O + [(CH3)2SiO]n The coating is added layer by layer, with each layer of [(CH3)2SiO]n being 0.60 nm thick. Suppose you want to waterproof a piece of doth that is 3.00 square meters, and you want 250 layers of waterproofing compound on the cloth. What mass of (CH3)2SiCl2 do you need?arrow_forwardIn an experiment, 23 g of ethanol (C2H5OH) reacted with an excess of ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) and 33 g of the product ethyl ethanoate (CH3COOC2H5) was obtained. Calculate the % yield for the reaction (balanced equation given below). C2H5OH + CH3COOH → CH3COOC2H5 + H2Oarrow_forwardAnswer the following questions. 1. What are the benefits of green chemistry?2.

The goal is to convince an investor to invest in your company so that you can build a factory to make ester compounds. For example, you could make hexyl pentanoate, and sell it for use in perfumes and make the investor money. You must come up with a compound that you can make and sell. You can use your textbooks and the internet as resources. At the end of your research, you must have the compound table filled out.arrow_forward
