How does knowing the reactants and products help you classify a chemical reaction? Write a short paragraph explaining.

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.

22. a flask containing 450 ml of 0.50 m h2so4 was accidentally knocked to the floor. how many grams of nahco, do you need to put on the spill to neutralize the acid according to the following equation: h2so4(aq)+2 nahcos(aq) na,so(aq) +2 h20()+2 co2(g) d) 38 g a) 2.3 g b) 9.5 g c) 19 g

Word equation for k(s) +h2o(l) yield koh (aq) + h2
