Why is sucrose insoluble in dichloromethane?

1 answer:

5 0

Sucrose is insoluble in dichloromethane because dichloromethane is not a polar solvent.
Sucrose is soluble in water because the molecules of sucrose has the ability to react with the molecules of water and thereby forming hydrogen bond which enhance the dispersion of sucrose in the water.
Sugar can not react in a similar way with dichloromethane because they do not possess chemical species that can react together to form bonds. Thus, sugar is a polar substance which can not dissolve in a non-polar solvent.

Well when the sun makes water dissaper thats usually evaporation.

The chemical changes is when the plants absorb the energy from the sunlight and convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen gas. Physically nothing has changed. The plant still looks the sam changes occur internally these internal changes are chemical in nature.

Answer:

1.047 M

Explanation:

The given reaction:

$6Fe^{2+}_{(aq)}+Cr_2O_7^{2-}_{(aq)}+14H^+_{(aq)}\rightarrow 6Fe^{3+}_{(aq)}+2Cr^{3+}_{(aq)}+7H_2O_{(aq)}$

For dichromate :

Molarity = 0.254 M

Volume = 15.8 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 15.8 ×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of dichromate :

$Moles=0.254 \times {15.8\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of dichromate = 0.0040132 moles

1 mole of dichromate react with 6 moles of iron(II) solution

Thus,

0.0040132 moles of dichromate react with 6 × 0.0040132 moles of iron(II) solution

Moles of iron(II) solution = 0.02408 moles

Volume = 23 mL = 0.023 L

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

<u>Molarity = 0.02408 / 0.023 = 1.047 M</u>
