Suppose you want to analyze dried crab shell chitin and squid pen chitin samples. The resulting crystallinities, crystal sizes, and degrees of N-acetylation of the acid- hydrolyzed chitin samples are almost unchanged the same before and after acid hydrolysis. After acid-hydrolyzation by 1 M HCl at 85 °C. The 5,080.69 micromoles of Chitin (C8H1305N)n were isolated from 1 kg of dried shells. If there are 9 percent chitin in 18kg squid pen sample, in what amount can you express the difference between the amount of chitin isolated in the dried shell and squid pen in the sample? (MM Chitin= 203.1925 g/mol). Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

Some alcohols undergo rearrangement or other unwanted side reactions when they dehydrate in acid. Alcohols may be dehydrated under mildly basic conditions using phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3) in pyridine. The alcohol reacts with phosphorus oxychloride much like it reacts with tosyl chloride, displacing a chloride ion from phosphorus to give an alkyl dichlorophosphate ester. The dichlorophosphate group is an outstanding leaving group. Pyridine reacts as a base with the dichlorophosphate ester to give an E2 elimination. Propose a mechanism for the dehydration of cyclohexanol by POCl3 in pyridine.
