When the caraway seed oil is heated, which of the two components will most likely distill first?

Chemistry

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Distillation is the process of separating two or more miscible substances based on there difference in boiling point. Here, the one with the lowest boiling point separates/distill first, followed by the one with the next (lower) boiling point. The constituent with the highest boiling point is left behind except in cases where impurities are in high amount and it is also made to distill (last).

Limonene has a boiling point of 176°C while carvone has a boiling point of 231°C, hence limonene will distill first from a caraway seed oil distillation due to its lower boiling point.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Limonene has a boiling point of 176C and (+)-carvone has a boiling point of 231C.

In distillation, the temperature is gradually increased until one of the components begins to vaporizes out of the solution. This vapor is then condensed into a different container. The component that vaporizes first will do so at a lower temperature than the second. Therefore, the component that has the lower boiling point will vaporize first.

What is the pressure in a gas container that is connected to an open-end U-tube manometer if the pressure of the atmosphere is 7
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The pressure in the gas is 656mmHg

Explanation:

In calculating the pressure of the gas;

step 1: convert the height of the mercury arm to mmHg

9.60cm = 96.0 mmHg

step 2: convert 752 torr to mmHg

I torr is 1 mmHg

752 torr = 752mmHg

Step 3: since the level of mercury in the container is higher than the level of mercury exposed to the atmosphere, we substrate the values to obtain our pressure.

So, 752mmHg - 96mmHg = 656mmHg

The pressure in the gas container is therefore 656mmHg.

N. B : if the mercury arm is in lower position, you add.

Which best describes nuclear fission
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>
