Question
Planning these processes involves repeatedly breaking bonds on paper. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this process of creating a complex molecule from simple off-the-shelf precursors.
ANSWER: total synthesis [prompt on synthesis]
[10e] Any total synthesis is limited by the fact that this quantity is always less than 100 percent. This quantity for a reaction is equal to the observed amount of product divided by the expected amount of product.
ANSWER: reaction yield [or percent yield]
[10h] One method of improving reaction yield is this process, in which a glass jacket of cold water is used to condense gaseous products and return them to the reaction mixture.
ANSWER: refluxing
