1.

a. The180.6 has a tiny superscript to tell you that 180.6 C is the boiling point at 18 torr.
b. Density. 1.280 20/4. Actually, this particular number is a specific gravity. This is a mass of the
density of the liquid taken at 20C referred to (divided by) the density of the same mass of water
at 4C. That's what the tiny 20/4 means. Notice the units will cancel. A number without the
modifying fraction is a true density (in g/ml) at the temperature given.
c. the subscript D refers to the yellow D-line of a sodium
d. Sol= Alcohol. Ethyl alcohol; ethanol.
Sol= ether. Diethyl ether; ethoxyethane.
2. Cinnamaldehyde is a consistent of Ceylon and Chinese cinnamon oils.

a. Its molecular weight is 132.16 g/mol
b. its formula is C9H8O its structure is









c. PREPARATION OF CINNAMALDEHYDE Henry H. Richmond, Guelph, Ontario, Canada,
assignor to United States Rubber Company, New York, N. Y., a corporation of New Jersey
No Drawing. Application April 5, 1947,
d. Its density, 1.05 g/cm


e. Boiling point is 248
f. Its refractive index is n = 1.60997
3. tert-Butanol is a common name of 2-methyl-2-propanol. This compound is a liquid at 25
4. The common name for C6H4N2O6 is 2,4-DINITRORESORCINOL
5 three solvents in which 2,6-dinitrobenzaldehyde is soluble are:
caustic alkalies
water
organic solvents
6. the cost of 500 mg of Glycyl-glycyl-glycyl-glycyl-glycine is $635.50
7. Diethyl ether is frequently used in extractions
a. The flash point for Diethyl ether is -45.
b. Extinguishing media recommended for Diethyl Ether are:
water spray, water fog, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

8. PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS FOR CHEMICAL CONTAMINANTS (PEL) for
Acentone:

ppm(e) mg/M3(f) Ceiling(g)

500 1200 3000 ppm
PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS FOR CHEMICAL CONTAMINANTS (PEL) for
Bromine:
ppm(e) mg/M3(f) Ceiling(g)
0.1 0.7 C
The more hazardous compound is Bromine.
Part B: Scavenger Hunt and Stoichiometry Calculations
1.


a. Molar mass Prop = 44.10g therefore, 1 mole per 44.10g
b. Density of bromine = 3.1028 g cm3
Therefore 10ml = 31.028g Br2
From your balanced equation:
1mol Prop reacts with 2 mol Br2 to produce 1mol 2,2DBP + 2mol HBr
Molar mass Br2 = 159.808g

c. Checking for the limiting reactant:

44.1g prop reacts with 2*159.808 = 319.616g Br2 to produce 201.89g 2,2BDP + 161.824g HBr
31.028g Br2 reacts with 44.10/319.61*31.02 = 4.280g propane
Br2 is the limiting reactant.

d. Propane is in excess

Substitute these values into mass equation:
4.280g propane reacts with 31.028g Br2 to produce 201.89/44.10*4.28= 19.59g 2,2DBP
161.824/44.1*4.28 = 15.705g HBr
4.28g Prop + 31.028g Br2 19.59g 2,2DBP + 15.705g HBr
e. Theoretical yield of 2,2 DBP = 19.59g.
