What would be the theoretical yield of reacting methyl benzoate (C₆H₅CO₂CH3) with nitric acid (HNO3) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4), producing methyl m-nitrobenzoate (C6H4CO2CH3NO2)? 6 g methyl benzoate 4 mL nitric acid 4 mL sulfuric acid crude methyl m-nitrobenzoate recovered: 7.260 g pure methyl m-nitrobenzoate recovered: 6.227 g
Can you explain how to find what is the theoretical yield, and the desired percent yield of ethyl 4-nitrobenzoate? 1. Synthesis of ethyl 4-nitrobenzoate a) In a 50-ml round-bottom flask, weigh out 4-nitrobenzoic acid (0.85 g, 0.005 mol). Add to this 8 ml of absolute ethanol. Add boiling stones, and then bring this solution to the Lab Technologist. WATER OUT b) The Lab Technologist will deliver 1.2 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid to the mixture from the automatic pipette. [CAUTION,...

PROCEDURE CAUTION!!! Nitric acid and sulfuric acid are strong and corrosive acids. For that reason, avoid inhaling its vapors or causing any contact with the skin or clothing. Wear your protective glasses at all times. Use the extractors to work with these acids. A. Nitration of methyl benzoate 1. Preparation of the reactants. In the extractor you will find a burette with concentrated sulfuric acid, a second burette with concentrated nitric acid, clearly identified. Familiarize yourself with the scales of...
Calculating Theoretical Yield While making methyl 3-Nitrobenzoate during orgo lab we were asked to calculate theoretical yield and I not sure how to start correctly. We used 7.5ml of 18M H2SO4, and also 2.5 18M H2SO4 & 2.5mL of 16M HNO3. Then we added 2.1ml of methyl benzoate (d=1.09 g/ml) to the 7.5ml of H2SO4. Once that was all mixed, the H2SO4 & HNO3 was added to the H2SO4- menthyl benzoate mixture. Then we filtered it using suction filtration. (adding...
