Reaction 2 - prepare the reagent table for the scenario below. (make sure to indicate if each chemical is a reagent, solvent, or reactant. show all your calculations, including all units, and references.)

Place 25 mL RBF with a small magnetic stir bar on ice bath which is on a stirrer. Place 8 mL of H2SO4 in the RBF and cautiously add 1 mL of HNO3.

Cool the mixture to get less than 10 oC if placed inside RBF or less than 5 oC if placed inside beaker Weigh the vial with compound (in presence of your TA) and add 3.0 g methyl benzoate very slowly 4-5 drops at a time with pipette. Mix thoroughly after adding each portion. After adding methyl benzoate, record the weight of empty vial (in presence of your TA). (limiting reagent).

Start stirring at 10-15 oC for 10 mins. Remove the ice bath and stir 15 mins more. Place 20 mL of water and few pieces of ice in a beaker and place this beaker in another ice bath.

Pour the nitration solution in the beaker, rinse the flask with little amount of ice-cold water and stir the solution till the initial turbidity dissipated. wait for complete precipitation.

Reaction 2 - prepare the reagent table for the scenario below. (make
