A number of alcohols with the formula C4
H10O are separately oxidised. Using 70g of the alcohols
a 62% yield of organic product is achieved.
What mass of product could be obtained?
1 42.2g of butanone
2 51.6g of butanoic acid
3 51.6g of 2-methyl propanoic acid
Find the molecular mass of butanone, butanoic acid and 2-methyl propanoic acid. Then find the yield using actual mass/calculated mass x 100. Choose the options whose yield = 62 %.
