Question 2

The pain reliever phenacetin is soluble in cold water to the extent of 1.0 g/1310 mL and soluble
  in diethyl ether to the extent of 1.0 g/90 mL.
  (a) Determine the approximate distribution coefficient for phenacetin in these two solvents.
  (b) If 50 mg of phenacetin were dissolved in 100 mL of water, how much ether would be
  required to extract 90 of the phenacetin in a single extraction?
  (c) What percent of the phenacetin would be extracted from the aqueous solution in (b) by

Answer to Question 1

(a)
(b) no reaction
(c) no reaction
(d) CH3CH2CH2CO2 Na+ + H2O + CO2
(e) no reaction
(f) no reaction
(g) no reaction
(h) no reaction
(i) CH3N+HCH2CH2NH2+



Answer to Question 2

(a) K (ether/water) = (1.0 g/90 mL)/(1.0 g/1310 mL) = 14.6
(b) K = (0.045 g/X mL ether) / (0.05 g/100 mL water) = 14.6; X = 6.2 mL
(c) first extraction: (X/25 mL)/((50-X)/100 mL = 14.6
X = 39 mg in ether
second extraction: 9 mg in ether
Total: (39 + 9) mg = 48 mg (96)

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
