Select the fastest way to differentiate between the organic and aqueous layers of an extraction.a. Hold a white piece of paper b

ehind the separatory funnel. The organic layer will have a slight yellow color, while the aqueous layer will be colorless.b. Add a few drops of one of the layers to a test tube containing 1 mL of water. Shake the test tube to determine the solubility of the layer in water.c. Separate the layers and heat them. The organic layer will have the lowest boiling point.d. Weigh equal volumes of each layer. The aqueous layer will have the highest mass.

Answer:

b. Add a few drops of one of the layers to a test tube containing 1 mL of water. Shake the test tube to determine the solubility of the layer in water

Explanation:

Option a is not true, it depends on the compound being extracted.

Option c is not true, although most of the solvents used in extractions have lower boiling point than water there are exceptions, for example toluene.

Option  d is not true. Again most of the solvents used in extractions are less dense than water, there are many exceptions, for example chloroform, so for equal volumes the chloroform layer will weigh more.

Option b. is the correct one.

One will test the  miscibility of the layer in water. If it inmiscible then one would know is the organic layer. If it is the aqueous layer then it will completely be miscible.

study the electron dot diagrams in figure 1 above. which two elements are most likely to react and form a compound what type of
azamat
There’s no picture? regardless, if there are two numbers of electrons adding up to 8, then they will likely form an ionic bond/compound. if they can form a covalent bond with whatever amount of electrons, ex carbon 4 and 4, then it would b covalent compound

How will you known that you have reached the equivalence point when titrating the NaOH solution with HCl?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

When the solution (with phenolphthalein) changes to colorless

Explanation:

When titrating with HCl is common to add phenolphthalein as an acid-base indicator.

Phenolphthalein is pink or fucsia when added into a basic solution. On the other hand when it is in acid solutions, is colorless.

So, when titrating, the NaOH solution will be initialy pink due to the phenolphthalein and when reaching the equivalence point, that color will fade out into colorless. This is how you know you hace reached the equivalent point.
