In regular Mello Yello there is no benzoic acid. There may be in diet or other variations of the brand. In order to find out how much is in it you will need to contact Coca-Cola. There should be a contact number on the product.

To make a saturated solution of benzoic acid using benzene as the solvent how much is need of each?

I can't find a number, but I found this: Benzoic acid is slightly soluble in water, soluble in ethanol, very slightly soluble in benzene and acetone. (see link on the left under Web Links) This implies not very much benzoic acid will dissolve in benzene. This other site (the MSDS for benzoic acid) says this: SOLVENT SOLUBILITY: Soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform, acetone, carbon disulfide, oil of turpentine, carbon tetrachloride, fixed and volatile oils; slightly soluble in petroleum ether, hexane. This does make it sound fairly soluble! Hard to say which is right. This can easily be determined by experiment however!


Why does benzoic acid form a dimer in benzene and not in water?

Benzene is a non polar solvent with low dielectric constant, whereas water is a polar solvent with high dielectric constant. So water can reduce the interaction between benzoic acid molecules there by preventing them from dimerizing, which cannot be done by benzene


How much acid does distilled water have?

Distilled water is considered neutral with a pH level of around 7, which means it is neither acidic nor basic. It does not typically contain any acid.


What is the experiment to find out how much acid is needed to dissolve a certain amount of alkali?

To determine how much acid is needed to dissolve a specific amount of alkali, you can conduct a titration experiment. Add a known volume of acid of known concentration to the alkali solution until the alkali is completely neutralized. By recording the volume of acid used, you can calculate the amount needed to dissolve the alkali based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.


What is the molecular weight of benzanilide?

Answerer: 244. Questioner: I don't know a lot about chemistry, I'm really asking this for a friend. But they said that the molecular weight of the dimer would be less than twice the weight of the acid. 244 seems to be almost exactly twice that weight. Is that the correct answer? Answerer: Yea, as far as i think.

How much water should be used for the recrystallisation of benzoic acid?

depends on how much benzoic acid you use. if you have 0.5g of benzoic acid , you need 30ml of water as a solvent.


How do you separate benzoic acid from a mixture of napthalene and benzoic acid?

One way to separate benzoic acid from a mixture of naphthalene and benzoic acid is by sublimation. Naphthalene sublimes at a lower temperature compared to benzoic acid, allowing for the separation of the two compounds based on their difference in sublimation temperatures. By heating the mixture and collecting the sublimate, one can isolate benzoic acid from naphthalene.

Equation for reaction of phenol and benzoic acid?

Benzoic acid has a chemical formula of PhCOOH. It does not react with water so much as it dissociates in it, forming a free hydrogen ion. The reaction for the dissociation is PhCOOH(aq) --> PhCOO-(aq) + H+ (aq).


Why benzoic acid unmelt even 200 Celsius?

Benzoic Acid has a melting point of 122oC. If your sample did not melt even at 200oC, then you can only assume that the sample in Whole or Part was not Benzoic Acid. It must have been contaminated with some other compound with a much higher melting point.


What are the Freezing-point depression constant of benzoic acid and salicylic acid?

The freezing-point depression constant (Kf) of benzoic acid is 6.22 °C/m, and for salicylic acid, it is 6.93 °C/m. These values indicate how much the freezing point of a solvent will decrease for each molal concentration of the solute.

Is it possible make a saturated solution of benzoic acid using methylene chloride as the solvent?

You can make a saturated solution of anything in any solvent. The question is how much will actually be dissolved in the saturated solution. A saturated solution of salt in water will obviously have a LOT of salt in it. A saturated solution of sand in water won't have any dissolved sand at all! It'll still be saturated. What you want to know is what the solubility of benzoic acid is in methylene chloride. That I don't know. One way to find out is just add a known amount of benzoic acid to the solvent and see if it dissolves. If you search the scientific literature of organic synthesis, I'm sure the solubility of benzoic acid is known in a variety of solvents, although methylene chloride isn't the most common. I found this in the MSDS (see link to the left): SOLUBILITY IN WATER: 2.9% @ 20 C SOLVENT SOLUBILITY: Soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform,acetone, carbon disulfide, oil of turpentine, carbon tetrachloride, fixed and volatile oils; slightly soluble in petroleum ether, hexane. The other link, ChemicalForums.com, seems to imply that it is soluble, but no data is given. Check out this for more on benzoic acid: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoic_acid
