Alcohol and water have different melting points. which method would you use to separate them?

1 answer:

4 0

The process of separating alcohol from water can be done in several different ways. The most familiar method is through heating the blended liquid. Since alcohol has a lower boiling temperature than water, it will rapidly become steam. It can then be condensed into a separate container. You can also freeze the alcoholic mixture, which allows for partial removal of the nonalcoholic components; what remains will be more rich in alcohol. Use ordinary table salt to separate isopropyl alcohol from water. The result will be a condensed isopropyl alcohol, not a drinking alcohol.

Assuming that an acetic acid solution is 12% by mass and that the density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL, what volume of 1 M NaOH

Doss [256]

Explanation:

Let us assume that total mass of the solution is 100 g. And, as it is given that acetic acid solution is 12% by mass which means that mass of acetic acid is 12 g and 88 g is the water.

Now, calculate the number of moles of acetic acid as its molar mass is 60 g/mol.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{12 g}{60 g/mol}$

= 0.2 mol

Molarity of acetic acid is calculated as follows.

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

1 g/ml = $\frac{100 g}{volume}$

volume = 100 ml

Hence, molarity = $\frac{\text{no. of moles}}{volume}$

= $\frac{0.2 mol}{0.1 L}$

= 2 mol/l

As reaction equation for the given reaction is as follows.

$NaOH + CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow CH_{3}COONa + H_{2}O$

So, moles of NaOH = moles of acetic acid

Let us suppose that moles of NaOH are "x".

$x \times 1 M = 10 mL \times 2 M$ (as 1 L = 1000 ml)

x = 20 L

Thus, we can conclude that volume of NaOH required is 20 ml.

The electrolyte of the following is:

ozzi

An electrolyte is a term used to describe a compound that can dissociate into ions as it is nothing but an ionic compound, a salt made up of a positively charged cation and negatively charged anion.

Here the correct answer is D. Since there are no hydrocarbons or any other organic compound, that do not possess partial let alone full charges, all of them can dissociate in solution to give their ions.

This allows for the solution to be able to conduct electricity.

Answer:

Ionic bond

Explanation:

Covalent bonds can only form between non-metals and copper is a metal so it would be an ionic bond.
