I’m struggling with dimensional analysis in chemistry! Will someone please help me with .74 Kcal/min to cal/sec ? Explain and gi

valina [46]

Answer:

12.33 cal/sec

Explanation:

As we know,

1 Kcal = 1000 cal

So,

0.74 Kcal = X cal

Solving for X,

X = (0.74 Kcal × 1000 cal) ÷ 1 Kcal

X = 740 cal

Also we know that,

1 Minute = 60 Seconds

Therefore, in order to derive cal/sec unit replace 0.74 Kcal by 740 cal and 1 min by 60 sec in given unit as,

= 740 cal / 60 sec

= 12.33 cal/sec

How many grams of material is lost in the aqueous phase if two extractions are carried out on 100 mL of a 5% (m/v) aqueous solut

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

4.94g of material

Explanation:

Partition coefficient (Kp) of a substance is defined as the ratio between concentration of organic solution and aqueous solution, that is:

Kp = 8 = Concentration in Ethyl acetate / Concentration in water

100mL of a 5% solution contains 5g of material in 100mL of water. Thus:

8 = X / 100mL / (5g-X) / 100mL

Where X is the amount of material in grams that comes to the organic phase.

8 = X / 100mL / (5g-X) / 100mL

8 = 100X / (500-100X)

4000 - 800X = 100X

4000 = 900X

4.44g = X

Thus, in the first extraction you will lost 4.44g of material from the aqueous phase.

And will remain 5g-4.44g = 0.56g.

In the second extraction:

8 = X / 100mL / (0.56g-X) / 100mL

8 = 100X / (56-100X)

448 - 800X = 100X

448 = 900X

0.50g = X

In the second extraction, you will extract 0.50g of material

Thus, after the two extraction you will lost:

4.44g + 0.50g = 4.94g of material
