<span>Saturated sodium chloride is used to transfer the product rather than water since it is not polar and rinsing the product with water would revert any 4-methylcyclohexene back to 4-methylcyclohexanol in the Hickman Head and thus lowering the percent yield; using water would shift the equilibrium towards the reactants.  Also sodium chloride removes the small amount of phosphoric acid and also a small amount of water.  If one were to add water, both 4-methylcyclohexene and phosphoric acid are partially soluble making difficult to remove the water later; sodium chloride makes the water less reactive so easier to remove by making the aqueous later more polar.</span>

Answer:

Because it helps to remove water from the system.

Explanation:

The saturated sodium chloride solution has a strong affinity for water molecules and there is the possibility of changing the saturated solution to a dilute solution in the presence of pure water. Because of these reasons, the saturated sodium chloride solution removes water molecules from the system to become a diluted solution. That is the reason why the saturated solution was used instead of pure water.

What is true about tRNA's: O they vary widely in size O they can covalently bond to more than one type of amino acid 0 they do n
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Transfer RNA or t RNA's is one of the type of the RNA molecule necessary for the synthesis of protein translation. This RNA works as a adaptor molecule and contains 70 to 90 nucleotide in length.

Transfer RNA contains an anti codon loop. This anti codon loop has the ability to recognize an mRNA codon and result in the formation of protein product.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

Why do living things need carbon
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Animals use oxygen to convert this food into energy they can use, and to maintain a steady supply of carbon atoms that are necessary for building any animal cells. Respiration also returns carbon dioxide back to the atmosphere as a waste product, where plants can reabsorb it in the process of photosynthesis. hope I helped.

What happens to an electromagnetic wave as the
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Energy decreases and wavelength gets longer.

Explanation:

The energy of a wave is given by :

E=hf

Where

h is Planck's constant

f is the frequency of the wave

As frequency decreases, the energy of the wave also decreases and wavelength gets longer. Hence, the option is (d).
