The formula of determining the R_f value is:

R_f = \frac{distance travelled by the solute}{distance travelled by the solvent}

where both the distance are measured from the common origin.

10 % ethyl acetate/ hexane means it has 10 % ethyl acetate and 90 % hexane which are non-polar in nature. Hence, the non-polar compound will travel farther in the TLC plate along with the eluent and the polar compound will travel less as they remain attracted to the polar adsorbent SiO_2.

Among 3-decanone and 3-decanol, 3-decanone will have high R_f as it is non-polar.

Among toluene and benzoic acid, toluene will have high R_f as it is non-polar.

Among cyclooctane and cyclooctanone, cyclooctane will have high R_f as it is non-polar.

What is the molarity of a solution containing 501mL with 35g NaCl
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Data:

mass of solute: 35g of NaCl

m.mass of solute: 58g/mol

volume of solution: 501mL

Molarity=?

Explanation:

501ml = 0.5dm3

M= g of solute/m.mass of solute*vol of solution

M= 35/58*0.5

M=1.20

Nearly every cell in a person's body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA)

The volume of a gas is 450 mL when its pressure is 1.00 atm. If the temperature of the gas does not change, what is the
NikAS [45]

Answer: 0.225 atm

Explanation:

For this problem, we have to use Boyle's Law.

Boyle's Law: P₁V₁=P₂V₂

Since we are asked to find P₂, let's manipulate the equation.

P₂=(P₁V₁)/V₂

P_{2} =\frac{(1.00atm)(0.45L)}{2.00L}

With this equation, the liters cancel out and we will be left with atm.

P₂=0.225 atm

How many moles of Co2 are produced when 0.2 moles of sodium carbonate reacts with excess HCl
Pie
To determine the number of moles of carbon dioxide that is produced, we need to know the reaction of the process. For the reaction of HCl and sodium carbonate, the balanced chemical equation would be expressed as:

2HCl + Na2CO3 = 2NaCl + H2O + CO2

From the initial amount given of sodium carbonate and the relation of the substances from the balanced reaction, we calculate the moles of carbon dioxide as follows:

0.2 moles Na2Co3 ( 1 mol CO2 / 1 mol Na2Co3 ) = 0.2 moles CO2

Therefore, the amount in moles of carbon dioxide that is produced from 0.2 moles sodium carbonate would be 0.2 moles as well.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.

The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.
