Answer: particle size

Explanation:

1. Density is defined as mass contained per unit volume.

If two substances have different densities, the one with higher density sinks in the one with lower density.

2. Magnetism is the property of an object that can attract or repel objects that have a magnetic material like iron inside them.

It is used in separation when one of the material is magnetic.

3. Boiling point is the temperature when liquid converts to gaseous form.

It is used to separate two liquids with different boiling points using distillation.

4. Particle size is used to separate two solids with different sizes. Sand particles are smaller than seashells and thus can be separated using sieve.

1. In the investigation of an unknown alcohol, there was a positive Jones test and a negative Lucas test. What deductions may be

pogonyaev

Answer:

1. When observing a positive test for the jones reagent and negative for the Lucas test, it indicates that it is in the presence of a primary alcohol.

Jones reagent behaves like a strong oxidant, where it transforms the primary alcohols into carboxylic acids and the secondary alcohols into ketones. Tertiary alcohols do not react.

With the Lucas test, tertiary alcohols react immediately producing turbidity, while secondary alcohols do so in five minutes. Primary alcohols do not react significantly with Lucas reagent at room temperature.

2. No reaction (See the attached drawing)
