Explain why caprylic acid, CH3(CH2)6COOH, dissolves in a 5 percent aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide but caprylaldehyde, CH3(CH2)6CHO, does not. Estimated Level: Moderate Your short answer: equal The caprylic acid reacts to form the water soluble salt. The caprylaldehyde is a gas at room temperature. The caprylaldehyde behaves as a reducing agent, which neutralizes the sodium hydroxide. With two oxygens the caprylic acid is about twice as polar the caprylaldehyde.

The 220-mm diameter bowling ball has a mass of 7.25 kg. The instant that the ball comes in contact with the alley, it has a forward velocity \vec{v} of 7 m/s and a back spin \omega of 6 rad/s. If the kinetic coefficient of friction between the ball and the alley is 0.15, determine the elapsed time and the distance traveled before the ball begins to roll without slipping.
