Sorbitol is used in sugar free gums as a sweetener. After analysis, a sample of sorbitol contained 3.96 g of carbon, .769 g of hydrogen, and 5.28 g of oxygen. What is its empirical formula? If the molar mass is 182 g/mole, then
what is the molecular formula of sorbitol?

The boiling point of propanoic acid is higher than that of 1-butanol because: propanoic acid has a higher molecular weight than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is more soluble in water than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is a better hydrogen bond donor than 1-butanol. propanoic acid forms hydrogen bonded dimers and 1-butanol does not. 1-butanol forms hydrogen bonded dimers and propanoic acid does not.

Consider the directing effects of the substituents on salicylamide and predict the possible structures of the iodination products. which do you think will be the major product?

In chemistry, the type of an atom (what element it is) is determined by: a) the number of protons it contains in its nucleus.b) the number of neutrons it contains in its nucleus.c) the number of protons it has in a cloud around the nucleus.d) the number of neutrons it has in a cloud around the nucleus.e) the number of electrons it exchanges with its neighbors.
