Answer:

It could be extracted 0.512 g of solute

Explanation:

The equation that relates the K_{D} and the volumes of organic and aqueous phases is:

q_{solute-aq} =\frac{V_{aq} }{K_{D}xV_{org} + V_{aq}  }

Where q_{solute-aq} refers to the fraction of solute remaining in the aqueous phase, V_{aq} is the aqueos phase volume, V_{org} is the organic phase volume and K_{D} is the partition coefficient of the solute in the solvents.

Moreover,for the three consecutive extractions of the same volume of organic phase we can write:

q_{solute-aq} =(\frac{V_{aq} }{K_{D}xV_{org} + V_{aq}  })^{ 3}

So, plugging the values given into the equation we get:

q_{solute-aq} =(\frac{100 mL }{2.7x10 mL + 100 mL  })^{ 3}

q_{solute-aq} =0.488

The result obtained indicates that a fraction of 0.488 of solute remains in the aqueous phase.

Taking in account that the fraction formula is:

q_{solute-aq} = \frac{mass- of- solute- aq}{initial-mass- of -solute}

0.488= \frac{mass- of- solute- aq}{1.0 g}\\\\0.488 x 1.0 g= {mass- of- solute- aq}\\0.488 g= {mass- of- solute- aq}\\

Finally we substract the solute in the aqueous phase form the initial to get the amount in the organic phase:

1.0g - 0.488g = 0.512 g

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Solvent 1 = benzene,          Solvent 2 = water

 K_{p} = 2.7,         V_{S_{2}} = 100 mL

V_{S_{1}} = 10 mL,       weight of compound = 1 g

       Extract = 3

Therefore, calculate the fraction remaining as follows.

                  f_{n} = [1 + K_{p}(\frac{V_{S_{2}}}{V_{S_{1}}})]^{-n}

                                  = [1 + 2.7(\frac{100}{10})]^{-3}

                                  = (28)^{-3}

                                  = 4.55 \times 10^{-5}

Hence, weight of compound to be extracted = weight of compound - fraction remaining

                                  = 1 - 4.55 \times 10^{-5}

                                  = 0.00001

or,                               = 1 \times 10^{-5}

Thus, we can conclude that weight of compound that could be extracted is 1 \times 10^{-5}.

Methylpropane (complete and condensed structural formulas)
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

1. Complete structural formula

Methylpropane consists of a chain of three carbons with another carbon atom attached to the middle carbon. Enough H atoms are added to give each C atom a total of four bonds.

The complete structural formula is shown below (There is a C atom at each intersection).

2. Condensed structural formula

A condensed structural formula is designed to be typed on one line.

The molecule has three CH₃ groups attached to a single carbon atom, so the condensed structural formula is  

(CH₃)₃CH

The formula is also often written CH₃CH(CH₃)CH₃ and as (CH₃)₂CHCH₃.
