Answer:

Paper chromatography is a basic technique of chromatography. It consist in the separation of the mixe components using a solvent.

Explanation:

Paper chromatography is a basic technique of chromatography. It consists in the separation of the mixed components using a solvent.

Paper chromatography consists of put some dot of the mix using a glass capillary into a specialized paper, generally made of cellulose, this is called a stationary phase.

Then you put this paper into a camera of glass named, chromatography camera, where previously contain a solvent. The solvent also know as a mobile phase, the type can be defined before the test and involves a study of the kind of the mix, and the compound you want to separate.

The chromatography camera has to be closed all the time during the test, and you can't move at all because the movement of the solvent can alternate the result.

Very often, the solution of the solvent is a mix of different liquid substances with different polarities.

When the stationary phase put into the camera, the solvent starts to move up over the paper, until the separation of the compounds is observable.

the Rf is a value who relates the move of the mobile phase with the move of the distance traveled by the substance tested.

To undersant the paper chromatography, you can watch the images attached.

The first is an image of the chromatography camera.

The second one is an image of a cellulose paper after the chromatography is done. You can watch the dots who indicates the traveling of the compound across the paper.

The third one can show you the evolutions of paper chromatography, from the beginning to the end.

To calculate the Rf value you have to use the equation:

Rf = distance traveled by the substance/distance traveled by the solvent/

If 16.0 grams of aluminum oxide were actually produced, what is the percent yield of the reaction below given that you start wit

Svetllana [295]

Answer: The percent of yield is 50.03%.

Explanation:

First, we need to balance the equation:

$4Al + 3O_{2}$ ⇒ $2Al_{2}O_{3}$

We need to remember that the chemical equations are written in moles, so we have to convert the amounts in grams to moles, using the molecular weight of every compound: Al2O3 (101.96 g/mol), Al (29.98 g/mol) and O2 (31.99 g/mol).

In consequence, the amounts in moles of every compound will be:

$16 gAl_{2}O_{3} * \frac{1 mol}{101.96 g} =0.157 mol Al_{2}O_{3}$

$10 g Al * \frac{1mol}{29.98 g}= 0.333 mol Al$

$19 g O_{2}*\frac{1 mol}{31.99 g} =0.594 mol O_{2}$

Now, we have to find out which is the limit reagent or in other words, which of the reagents will be consumed first, taking into account the stoichiometric ratio of the balanced equation:

$0.333 mol Al * \frac{2 mol Al_{2}O_{3}}{4 mol Al} =0.1665 mol Al_{2}O_{3}$
