Answer #1

mass of HBr = volume * density

                     = 4.6*1.49

                       = 6.854g

no of moles of HBr = W/G.M.Wt

                               = 6.854/80.908   = 0.0847moles

mass of 1-butanol   = volume * density

                                = 3*0.81 = 2.43g

no of moles             = W/G.M.Wt

                             = 2.43/74.12   = 0.03278 moles

C4H9OH + HBr -------------. C4H9Br + H2O

1 mole of HBr react with 1 mole of 1- butanol

0.0847 moles of HBr react with 0.0847 moles of 1-butanol is required

1-butanol is limiting reagent

1 mole of 1-butanol react with excess of HBr to gives 1mole of 1-bromobutane

0.03278 moles of 1-butanol react with excess of HBr to gives 0.03278 moles of 1-bromobutane

mass of 1-bromobutane =no of moles * gram molar mass

                                      = 0.03278*137   = 4.49g of 1-bromobutane

Theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane = 4.49g
