Which pair of products would result from the acid cleavage of phenyl propyl ether with excess concentrated HBr at an elevated temperature?

Which pair of products would result from the acid cleavage of phenyl propyl ether with excess concentrated HBr at an elevated temperature? Correct Answer Phenol and 1-bromopropane

Ether + HBr —–> Alkyl bromide + Alcohol. Halide attacks at less hindered site to produce alkyl halide. Ethyl phenyl ether + HBr/Heat/Water —-> Phenol + Bromoethane.

In a batch process, the reaction takes place in the presence of an acid medium. The acid is drained from the reaction vessel at the rate of 15ml/s as a result of the density difference of the acid from the reacting component. To avoid wastage of acid, it is recycled to an acid tank which has 1000 L capacity. The acid drained from the reaction vessel, picks up 50 g/L solids from the reactor. Acid is fed once again to the process from acid tank. When the process is started, the acid is almost pure in the tank as a result of filtration. As the reaction proceeds, acid in the tank gets more and more contaminated with the solids. The concentration of the solids should not exceed 100 g/L from the process point of view. The batch time is 16h. Estimate whether the concentration of the solids will exceed 100g/L during the batch reaction.
A laboratory teacher had 1.5 litres of concentrated sulfuric acid. She replaces concentrated sulfuric acid with water after every class till the carton is empty. One student needs 10 ml of sulfuric acid mixture in every class. First class had 20 students and since then all other classes observed 10 students. Calculate total quantity of water with which mixture of sulfuric acid and water is replaced till carton is empty. Note 1.5 litres of concentrated sulfuric acid had 90% sulfuric acid and rest water
A sample of polystyrene is warmed under reflux in concentrated nitric acid and the clear mixture is poured in water to yield a X coloured precipitate. This precipitate is then extracted with ether and then with NaOH solution followed by washing with water in each extraction. The nitro compounds from the combined final aqueous extract and alkaline extract using concentrated HCl and zinc. The final solution after being diazotized and then cooled is poured into excess of alkaline naphthol to give Y coloured solution. What are the colours X and Y?
Analysis of a hexapeptide using enzymatic cleavage reveals the following result:
• Amino acid composition of the peptide is: 2R, A, V, S, Y
• Trypsin digestion yields two fragments and the compositions are: (R, A, V) and (R, S, Y)
• Chymotrypsin digestion yields two fragments and the compositions are: (A, R, V, Y) and (R, S)
• Digestion with carboxypeptidase A yields no cleavage product.
Given: Trypsin cleaves at carboxyl side of R. Chymotrypsin cleaves at carboxyl side of Y. Carboxypeptidase A cleaves at amino side of the C-terminal amino acid (except R and K) of the peptide.
The correct amino acid sequence of the peptide is:
How many liters of a 90% of concentrated acid needs to be mixed with a 75% Solution of concentrated acid to get a 30 liter Solution of 78% concentrated acid?
The reaction between ethylene and hydrogen bromide to form ethyl bromide is carried out in a continuous reactor. C2H4 + HBr = C2H5Br The product stream is analyzed and found to contain 51.7 mole% C2H5Br and 17.3% HBr. The feed to the reactor contains only ethylene and hydrogen bromide. Calculate the fractional conversion of the limiting reactant and the percentage by which the other reactant is in excess. If the molar flow rate of the feed stream is 165 mol/s, what is the extent of reaction?

Dr. Xman is diluting concentrated HCl acid by mixing water in it. The quantity of mixture is 32 l. The ratio of concentrated HCl to water is 7 ∶ 1. If 3 l of water is added to the mixture, the ratio of HCl to water changes to new ratio. If he want to change back the new ratio to the original value, how much concentrated HCl is to be added?
