Chapter 6, Problem 4Q
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular weight of the unknown compound is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Steam distillation is used to extract and purify the temperature-sensitive compounds. Steam distillation is generally used for organic compounds that are sensitive to temperature. The advantage of steam distillation is that the temperature-sensitive compounds can be boiled and extracted at a lower temperature without decomposition.

pose 5.056 grams of an unknown solute are dissolved in 50.0 ams of phenol (C6H50H). The resulting solution boils at 185.0 °C. hat is the molecular weight of the unknown solute? The boiling int of pure phenol is 182 °C, and its boiling point constant Kb= 56 °C/molal.
A mixture of these four liquids are separated using a fractional distillation: toluene, boiling point = 111 oC; acetone, boiling point = 56 oC; benzene, boiling point = 80 oC;and methanol, boiling point = 65 oC. Which liquid will distill off first?     Toluene     Benzene     Methanol     Acetone
A certain amount of the Butylated hydroxvanisole (BHA) was dissolved in 21.0 g of trichloromethane (CHCI3). This solution boiled at 62.20°C. If the boiling point of pure trichloromethane is 61.70°C, what mass of BHA was added to the solution? 180.24 grams BHA BHA molar mass = 1 mole BHA 119.37 grams CHCI3 1 mole CHCI3 CHCI, molar mass = 3.63 °C Kp (CHCI3)
