Kanza Ahmad Professor Enright Post-Lab Questions for Synthesis of t-Butyl chloride Density of product: 57.07g/10ml = 5.707 g/mL Theoretical yield (alcohol): 9.122g Actual yield: 7.97g Percent yield: (7.97g/9.122g) x 100 = 87.37% 2. The drying agent calcium chloride is used in this experiment to remove all the water from the organic layer. What’s left behind from this step should be just the organic product. 3. Sodium Bicarbonate is used in this experiment to neutralize the acidity that formed when HCl was added. 4. When we first begin the procedure the mixture is one uniform layer because of Hydrogen-bonding, but after letting the reaction run through the mixture turns into 2 different layers because Hydrogen bonding diminishes. Therefore it’s not miscible in H2O anymore and forms the t-butyl layer....
