Consider the aldol condensation between dibenzyl ketone and benzil in strong base. Calculate the molar masses of the reactants and product. (Hydrogens in the structures have been omitted for clarity) Report molar masses to 1 decimal place. g/mol g/mol Molar mass of dibenzyl ketone Molar mass of benzil Molar mass of 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylcyclopentadienone g/mol

Answer:

a) 210.3 g/mol

b) 210.2 g/mol

c) 384.5 g/mol

Explanation:

First step we will calculate the molar masses of ; carbon atom, hydrogen atom and  oxygen atom in each .

Molar mass of dibenzyl ketone

Molar mass of dibenzyl ketone = ∑ molar masses of atoms in dibenzyl ketone

= carbon( 15 ) = 15 ( 12.0107 ) + oxygen ( 14 ) = 1 ( 15.999 ) + hydrogen(14) =14(1.00784)

= 210.26926 ≈ 210.3 g/mol

 Molar mass of benzil

Molar mass of Benzil =  ∑ molar masses of atoms in  Benzil

= carbon( 14) = 14(12.0107) + oxygen(2) = 2 ( 15.999) +  hydrogen(10) =10(1.00784)

= 210.2262 ≈ 210.2 g/mol

Molar mass of 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylcyclopentadienone

Molar mass  = ∑ molar masses of atoms

= carbon ( 29) = 29(12.0107) + oxygen (1) = 1( 15.999 ) + hydrogen(20) = 20(1.00784 )

≈ 384.5 g/mol
