1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.

The covalent compound acetylene, which is the fuel of the oxyacetylene torch used by welders, has the molecular formula c2h2. the covalent compound benzene, a commercial solvent, has the molecular formula c6h6 each of these covalent compounds contains carbon and hydrogen atoms in a one-to-one ratio. would it be correct to write the chemical formulas of each as ch? explain.
