Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Substitution of
Concept introduction:Steam distillation is technique that is used to separate and purify volatile compounds either immiscible or almost immiscible in water. This method makes use of codistillation of mixture of water and other organic liquids. This can also be applied for separation and purification of some organic solids.

The sample weighs 0.5 g and contains about 5% impurity. Based on his knowledge of solubility, the student decides to use benzene as the solvent. After crystallization, the crystals are dried and the nal weight is found to be 0.02 g. Assume that all steps in the crystallization are performed correctly, there are no spills, and the student lost very little solid on any glassware or in any of the transfers.

- 5.0 mL of 1-butanol was mixed with 10 mL of HCl. The reaction was put on an ice bath and 4 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added. This mixture was refluxed for 45 min and then the product was co-distilled with water using a simple distillation apparatus. Water and the product are immiscible. 1-butanol has a molar mass of 74.12 g/mol, a density of 0.810 g/mL, and a boiling point of 118 C. The product has a molar mass of 92.57 g/mol, a density of 0.880 g/mL, and a boiling point of 78 C. What is the nucleophile in this reaction? What is the role of H2SO4 in this reaction?
