Question

Fill in the following information for Adipic Acid: molecular weight, g or ml, mole, melting point, boiling point, and density.

Example. 3-phenyl-1-propanol MW: 136.19, g or mL: 0.20g, mole: 0.0015, MP: -18, BP: 235, density: 1.008.

Can someone please SHOW how to get g/mL for Adipic Acid, someone on Chegg wrote 0.5g , but how is it 0.5g, as well as filling it in?? And can you also explain why 3-phenyl-1-propanol is 0.20g.

Thank you

Answer 1

Molecular weight of 3-phenyl-1-propanol=136.19g/mol

here mole is given=0.0015 mol

as we know mole=weight/mol.weight

then weight=mole*mol.weight

so weight=0.0015mole*136.19(g/mol)=0.20g

so 0.20 is gram not ml

g/ml is the unit of density.

Density=mass in gram/volume in ml
