DMSO For Horses? Uses, Benefits, And Risks

SOLVED:Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a byproduct of paper making and has a number of uses, especially as a solvent. It is a neutral molecule having the connectivity (CH3)2 SO . (a) Write a Lewis structure of DMSO that obeys the octet rule. Show all unshared pairs and any formal charges. (b) The octet rule may be exceeded for elements beyond the second period of the periodic table. Write a Lewis formula for DMSO in which ten valence electrons surround sulfur.

SOLVED: A chemist working as a safety inspector finds an unmarked bottle in a lab cabinet. The bottle contains ethanolamine, methyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, and glycerol. A note on the door of the cabinet says that it used to store bottles of various liquids. The chemist plans to identify the unknown liquid by measuring its density and comparing it to known densities. First, from his collection of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), the chemist finds the following information:- Ethanol
