Chapter 6.5, Problem 9P
The pKa of a protonated alcohol is about –2.5, and the pKa of an alcohol is about 15. Therefore, as long as the pH of the solution is greater than ___ and less than ________, more than 50% of 2-propanol (the product of the reaction on p. 244) will be in its neutral. nonprotonated form.

Write TRUE if the underlined word/phrase makes the statement correct. Otherwise, write the correct WORD/PHRASE that will make the statement true.
a. 2-phenylacetaldehyde is soluble with concentrated sulfuric acid due to acid-base neutralization.
b. 2-phenylacetic acid has a solubility classification of A2, which means it is soluble in 5.O%NaOH and insoluble in 5.O% NaHCO3.
c. Scratching the inner sides of the beaker to begin recrystallization is advised for unsaturated solutions.
d. Washing with hot solvent eliminates adhered mother liquor and avoids crystal dissolution.
e. To extract a nonpolar organic compound using solvent extraction, the extracting solvent must be nonpolar, and the washing solvent must be also nonpolar.
f. Addition of 6.0 M NaCl extracts saponins by converting them to their salt form.
g. The stationary phase in the paper chromatography experiment is the filter paper.

The esterification reaction of 1 mL each of 1-propanol and propanoic acid is catalyzed with 2-3 drops of sulfuric acid, which is then placed in a test tube in a hot-water bath. After 15 or more minutes, ice water was added. Propyl propanoate is formed. Write the complete equation for the reaction and describe the odor or 1-propanol, propanoic acid, and propyl propanoate.
Why does the dehydration of an alcohol more often use concentrated sulfuric acid,
H2SO4H2SO4, as the acid catalyst rather than dilute hydrochloric acid,
HCl?
Select one or more:
Hydrochloric acid is too small to effectively react with the alcohol in the reaction.
The additional water solvent from a dilute solution could reverse the dehydration reaction.
Only acids with more than one proton can complete the dehydration reaction.
The presence of the chloride ion could result in a competing substitution reaction.
