Hydrogen measurements

A hydrocarbon is 90% carbon by mass and 10% hydrogen by mass and has a molar mass of 40 g-mol It decolorizes bromine water, and 1.46 g of the hydrocarbon reacts with 1.60 L of hydrogen (measured at STP) in the presence of a nickel catalyst. Write the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon and the structural formulas of two possible isomers.

After leaving the electrolyzers, the chlorine gas is dried and compressed (liquefied), during which the hydrogen content in the chlorine gas will rise no sudden rises are to be expected in this stage of the process, hence, hydrogen measurements can have a response time of minutes here. 

Fig. 4. Comparison of hydrogen content measurements. The curves show IR absorption measurements, using absorption cross sections of Brodsky el al., and Fang el al., whose absolute calibration was done by NRA, and total hydrogen measurements using 15N nuclear reaction. Note the discrepancy that arises at high hydrogen pressures, because of the presence of hydrogen that is not infrared active.

We suspect fewer problems would have arisen had Oth and coworkers (see Reference 97) decided to perform enthalpy of hydrogenation measurements on [18]annulene. Nonetheless, we note that Oth s suggested value for the enthalpy of formation of benzo-l,3,5-cyclooctatriene is within 2 kJ mol of that estimated summing Roth s enthalpy of formation of 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene and Liebman s (cited in Reference 68) benzoannelation constant.

The experiment is carried out by stirring a solution of the compound with the catalyst power in an atomsphere of hydrogen gas. The rate of decrease in the volume of hydrogen, measured manometrically, gives the reaction rate. It is supposed to be complete when the stoichiometric quantity of hydrogen has been used up. The rates of reduction of different functions are different and the order of rates for different unsaturated groups is as follows ... 

The solid curve is the heat of adsorption of hydrogen alone in its dependence of coverage, and the points represent measurements of the heat of adsorption on the 40% of surface not covered by nitrogen when the latter is preadsorbed. It is seen that these values fall essentially on the curve as if the total surface were covered with hydrogen. Since the hydrogen measurements can be made with exceptionally great accuracy, it is quite possible that the small deviations from the curve toward lower heats of adsorption values are real and indicate that the... 

The online determination of S Hv-smow values using GC-pyrolysis-IRMS (GC-P-IRMS) was developed recently [55] and has proved to be a powerful tool to define the authenticity of natural compounds [56-61]. However, as fruit fiavour extracts are rather complex, and the sample amount for hydrogen measurement has to be rather high owing to the low abundance of deuterium... 

We now turn to the n = 5 case, 1,2-dimethylcyclopentene, for which there are literature enthalpy-of-hydrogenation measurements in an innocuous solvent coupled with a stereochemical analysis of the products67. Of all the dialky Icy cloalkenes that are mentioned in this section, it is with dimethylcyclopentene that equation 14, now with n = 5 and R = Me, is most expected to be essentially thermoneutral. We find the reaction is endothermic by ca 11 kJmol-1 and fail to understand the discrepancy75.
