Suppose you have been given the task of distilling a mixture of hexane + toluene. Pure hexane has a refractive index of 1.375 an

d pure toluene has a refactive index of 1.497. You collect a distillate sample which has a refractive index of 1.456. Assuming that the refractive index of the hexane + toluene mixture varies linearly with mole fraction, what is the mole fraction of hexane in your sample?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         Refractive index of mixture = 1.456

        Refractive index of hexane = 1.375

        Refractive index of toulene = 1.497

Let mole fraction of hexane = x_{1}

and, mole fraction of toulene = x_{2}

Also,        x_{1} + x_{2} = 1

or,            x_{1} = 1 - x_{2}

Hence, calculate the mole fraction of hexane as follows.

        refractive index mixture= mole fraction hexane × ref index hexane + mole fraction toluene × ref index toluene.

              1.456 = (1 - x_{2}) \times 1.375 + x_{2} \times 1.497

               1.456 = 1.375 - 1.375x_{2} + 1.497x_{2}

               0.081 = 0.122x_{2}

                   x_{2} = \frac{0.081}{0.122}

                                = 0.66

Since,     x_{1} = 1 - x_{2}

                          = 1 - 0.66

                          = 0.34

Thus, we can conclude that mole fraction of hexane in your sample is 0.34.

Five ?L of a 10-to-1 dilution of a sample were added to 5mL of Bradford reagent. The absorbance at 595 nm was 0.78 and,according
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

0.03g/mL

Explanation:

Given parameters include:

Five μL of a 10-to-1 dilution of a sample; This implies the Volume of dilute sample is given as 5 μL

Dilution factor = 10-to-1

The absorbance at 595 nm was 0.78

Mass of the diluted sample = 0.015 mg

We need to first determine the concentration of the diluted sample which is required in calculating the protein concentration of the original solution.

So, to determine the concentration of the diluted sample, we have:

concentration of diluted sample = \frac{mass}{volume}

= \frac{0.015 mg}{ 5 \alpha L}   (where ∝ was use in place of μ in the expressed fraction)

= 0.003 mg/μL

The dilution of the sample is from 10-to-1 indicating that the original concentration is ten times higher; as such the protein concentration of the original solution can be calculated as:

protein concentration of the original solution = 10 × concentration of the diluted sample.

= 10  × 0.003 mg/μL

= 0.03 mg/μL

= \frac{0.03*10^{-3g}}{10^{-3}mL}

= 0.03g/mL

Hence, the protein concentration of the original solution is known to be  0.03g/mL

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Neither is affected

Explanation:

The reaction occurs as follows:

K₂Cr₂O₇ + Pb(NO₃)₂ → PbCr₂O₇ + 2K⁺ + 2NO₃⁻

That means per mole of reaction you will have two moles of both K⁺ and NO₃⁻.

But volume is also doubled, doing that concentration of spectator ions doesn't change.

Right answer: Neither is affected

I hope it helps!
