Answer:

The top layer is the Aqueous layer, and the benzoic acid is contained in the non-aqueous layer/oil phase.

Explanation:

A separating funnel is a very important piece of laboratory glassware that is used to separate the components of liquid-liquid mixtures  which are immiscible. This technique is used in the extraction of the components of mixtures.

The liquids separate into two phases. The separation is based on the differences in the liquids' densities, where the denser liquid settles below and the lower density liquid stays afloat. Liquids used for this kind of separation are usually different liquids, one is the aqueous layer and the other, a non-aqueous layer.

Partition coefficient or distribution coefficient is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of a compound in two immiscible solvents at equilibrium.

Organic solvents (except halogenated organic compounds) with densities greater than that of water i.e 1g/mL ( usually called the oil phase) settle at the bottom of the aqueous phase.

Benzoic acid. will settle at the bottom layer ( i.e the lower phase).

Answer:

Can I get my 50 points now?

Explanation:

The helium is formed during the natural radioactive decay of elements such as uranium and thorium. These heavy elements were formed before the earth but they are not stable and very slowly, they decay. One mode of decay for uranium is to emit an alpha-particle.

Nataly [62]

The main constituent of gallstones is cholesterol. Cholesterol may have a role in heart attacks and blood clot formation. Its elemental percentage composition is 83.87% C, 11.99% H, and 4.14% O. It has a molecular weight of 386.64 amu. Empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁ and Molecular formula is 7(C₃H₄O₁).

<h3>What is Empirical Formula ?</h3>

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in given compound.

Element   %   Atomic mass   Relative no. of atoms  Simplest whole ratio

C            83.87       12                     \frac{83.87}{12} = 6.98                   \frac{6.98}{0.25} = 3

H            11.99         1                       \frac{11.99}{1} = 11.09                  \frac{11.09}{0.25} = 4

O            4.14          16                      \frac{4.14}{16} = 0.25                    \frac{0.25}{0.25} = 1

Thus the empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁.

<h3>How to find the Molecular formula of compound ?</h3>

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

n = \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Empirical formula weight}}

  = \frac{386.64}{56}

  = 7

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

                               = 7 (C₃H₄O₁)

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The main constituent of gallstones is cholesterol. Cholesterol may have a role in heart attacks and blood clot formation. Its elemental percentage composition is 83.87% C, 11.99% H, and 4.14% O. It has a molecular weight of 386.64 amu. Empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁ and Molecular formula is 7(C₃H₄O₁).

Copper(II) carbonate undergoes thermal decomposition. One of the pro
Llana [10]

Answer: The green copper (II) carbonate (CuCO_3) changes to black copper oxide (CuO)

CuCO_3(s)\stackrel{\Delta }\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

Explanation:

Decomposition is defined as the chemical reaction in which a single compound gives two or more simple substances. It requires energy to break the bonds between reactants, thus is an endothermic process.

Thermal decomposition uses heat for decomposition.

The chemical equation for thermal decomposition of copper (II) carbonate is:

CuCO_3(s)\stackrel{\Delta }\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

The green copper (II) carbonate (CuCO_3) changes to black copper oxide (CuO)
