5.3 grams of anhydrous sodium carbonate ...

5.3 grams of anhydrous sodium carbonate is treated with dilute hydrochloric acid to give carbondioxide. In order to produce the same amount of gas. How many graphite atoms are to be oxidised? 

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The reaction of sodium carbonate with acid is given as
`Na_(2)CO_(3)+2HClrarr 2NaCl+H_(2)O+CO_(2)`
1 mole of `Na_(2)CO_(3) = 1` mole of `CO_(2)`
106 grams of `Na_(2)CO_(3) = 44` grams of `CO_(2)`
5.3 grams of `Na_(2)CO_(3)=?`
The amount of `CO_(2)` produced `=(5.3)/(106)xx44=2.2` grams
Oxidation of graphite is given as `C+O_(2)rarr CO_(2)`
1 mole of `CO_(2) = 1` mole of graphite
44 grams of `CO_(2) = 6.022 xx 10^(23)` atoms
2.2 grams of `CO_(2) = ?`
Number of atoms of .C. to be oxidised
`= (2.2xx6.022x10^(23))/(44)= 3.011xx10^(22)`

Hydroboration is a reaction in which the boron hydride acts as an electrophile, R_2BH adds to a carbon - carbon double which acts as a nucleophile Organoborane compound The organoborane compound then is oxidised by treatment with hydrogen peroxide in aqueous sodium hydroxide to from alcohol. The OH group enters the carbon atom from the same side where the boron atom was present. Hence this reaction is highly regioselective and the boron atom attacheto that carbon atom which is less sterically hindred.
