1.
a. The180.6 has a tiny superscript to tell you that 180.6 C is the boiling point at 18 torr.
b. Density. 1.280 20/4. Actually, this particular number is a specific gravity. This is a mass of the
density of the liquid taken at 20C referred to (divided by) the density of the same mass of water
at 4C. That's what the tiny 20/4 means. Notice the units will cancel. A number without the
modifying fraction is a true density (in g/ml) at the temperature given.
c. the subscript D refers to the yellow D-line of a sodium
d. Sol= Alcohol. Ethyl alcohol; ethanol.
Sol= ether. Diethyl ether; ethoxyethane.
2. Cinnamaldehyde is a consistent of Ceylon and Chinese cinnamon oils.
a. Its molecular weight is 132.16 g/mol
b. its formula is C9H8O its structure is

d. Propane is in excess
Substitute these values into mass equation:
4.280g propane reacts with 31.028g Br2 to produce 201.89/44.10*4.28= 19.59g 2,2DBP
161.824/44.1*4.28 = 15.705g HBr
4.28g Prop + 31.028g Br2 19.59g 2,2DBP + 15.705g HBr
e. Theoretical yield of 2,2 DBP = 19.59g.
