(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The pairs of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation.

Interpretation: The pair of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation is to be stated.

Concept introduction: If two compounds have same molecular formula, but the spatial arrangement of atoms is different, then they are known as stereoisomers. Stereoisomers are further divided into two categories: optical isomers and geometrical isomers. The two different forms in which a single chiral carbon can exist is referred as enantiomers. The class of diastereomers includes stereoisomers that are not enantiomers. They are not the mirror images of each other. There are two or more chiral centers generally present in diastereoisomers.

The purity of the aspirin sample is tested with iron (III) chloride. A purple color resulting from iron (III) chloride test indicates the aspirin sample contains some unreacted salicylic acid and the carboxylic acid group in salicylic acid gives a purple color. the structure of aspirin itself contains a phenolic -OH group. O the aspirin sample contains some unreacted salicylic acid and the phenolic -OH group in salicylic acid gives a purple color. the aspirin sample contains some unreacted salicylic acid and the ring structure in salicylic acid gives a purple color.

Consider propanoic (CH3CH2CH2CO2H) acid and pentanoic (CH3CH2CH2CH2CO2H) acid and the corresponding alcohols with the same number of carbons, propanol (CH3CH2CH2COH) and pentanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2COH). Select the class of compound that is more soluble. {one answer] Select the best explanation for your answer to the previous question. [a second answer] Group of answer choices a. The solubility of alcohols in water decreases with increasing chain length. b. Propanoic acid and pentanoic acid are more soluble in water than the corresponding alcohol. c. Carboxylic acids are generally more soluble in water than alcohols of the same chain length because of increased hydrogen bonding with the -COOH functional group.  d. Propanol and pentanol are more soluble in water than the corresponding carboxylic acid e. The solubility of carboxylic acids in water decreases with increasing chain length. f. Alcohols are generally more soluble in water than carboxylic acids of the same…
