Why is performing extraction with several small portions of a solvent more officient than a single extraction with the same tota

l volume of the solvent?
Chemistry

elena55 [62]3 years ago
6 0

With various extractions the amount of material left in the trash will be lower, ergo the extraction will be more perfect. Various extractions with fewer amounts of solvent are more efficient than a single extraction with a huge amount of solvent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Surely multiple extractions are better than the single large extraction. Because extraction is about maximizing outside field communication between the two solvents, and you easily get more surface area contact with fewer amounts.

You can merge two smaller portions quicker and more completely than with large portions.

What is the pOH value of 0.0000877 M HCL
vredina [299]

Answer:

pOH=9.9

Explanation:

pH=-log[H+]= -log[0.0000877]

=4.06

pOH+ pH=14

pOH=14-4.06= 9.91

Calculate the number of moles of caco3 (calcium carbonate, or limestone) in a 20.0g sample of this substance
Brrunno [24]
First calculate for the molar mass of the given formula unit, CaCO₃. This can be done by adding up the product when the number of atom is multiplied to its individual molar mass as shown below.

     molar mass of CaCO₃ = (1 mol Ca)(40 g Ca/mol Ca) + (1 mol C)(12 g of C/1 mol of C) + (3 mols of O)(16 g O/1 mol O) = 100 g/mol of CaCO₃

Then, divide the given amount of substance by the calculated molar mass.
            number of moles = (20 g)(1 mol of CaCO₃/100 g)
             number of moles = 0.2 moles of CaCO₃

<em>Answer: 0.2 moles</em>

24g of methane were burned in an excess of air. What mass of water would be produced in the reaction assuming complete combustio
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

54g of water

Explanation:

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of methane produce 2 moles of water.

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of methane in order to find the moles of methane added. With the moles of methane and the chemical equation we can find the moles of water produced and its mass:

<em>Molar mass CH₄:</em>

1C = 12g/mol*1

4H = 1g/mol*4

12g/mol + 4g/mol = 16g/mol

<em>Moles methane: </em>

24g CH₄ * (1mol / 16g) = 1.5 moles methane

<em>Moles water:</em>

1.5moles CH₄ * (2mol H₂O / 1mol CH₄) = 3.0moles H₂O

<em>Molar mass water:</em>

2H = 1g/mol*2

1O = 16g/mol*1

2g/mol + 16g/mol = 18g/mol

<em>Mass water:</em>

3.0moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>54g of water</h3>

How many moles of dipyrithione contain 8.2 x 10^24 atoms of N
Pani-rosa [81]
Dipyrithione is a chemical with formula, C₁₀H₈N₂O₂S₂. This means that each molecule of the substance has two (2) atoms of nitrogen. By using the dimensional analysis and Avogadro's number, equal to 6.022 x 10²³, we calculate for the answer as shown below.

    n = (8.2 x 10²⁴ atoms N)(1 molecule dipyrithione/ 2 atoms of N)(1 mole dipyrithione/ 6.022 x 10²³ molecules dipyrithione)

Simplifying,
  n = 6.8 moles dipyrithione

<em>ANSWER: 6.8 moles</em>

Which of the following is equivalent to 2100 gram
BabaBlast [244]

10 decigrams are equivalent to 1 gram, so 2,100 grams are equivalent to 2100 x 10. This makes 21,000.
