Answer:

1. The solid is dissolved in the hot solvent (ethanol or water);

2. If the impurities are not dissolved, they are separated by filtration;

3. The solution is then cold, and the crystals of the solid are formed;

4. The solution is filtrated and the pure solid is obtained.

Explanation:

The recrystallization is a process to separate impurities from a solid. The solid with the impurities is dissolved in a hot solvent, and, is insoluble in the cold one. But the impurities must be soluble in the cold solvent, or insoluble in the hot one.

If the impurities are soluble in the cold solvent, then, the crystals of the analyte will be removed, and if they are insoluble in the hot solvent, then its crystal is removed first.

So let's assume that the solid is insoluble in hot ethanol, and soluble in hot water. Because its insoluble in hexane, the recrystallization is not possible with it. So the procedure would be:

1. The solid is dissolved in the hot solvent (ethanol or water);

2. If the impurities are not dissolved, they are separated by filtration;

3. The solution is then cold, and the crystals of the solid are formed;

4. The solution is filtrated and the pure solid is obtained.

To determine the age of fairly recent fossils and organic artifacts, it is possible to analyze the amounts of the isotopes 14C a
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).

Explanation:

Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).

Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:

^{14} C \rightarrow\ ^{14} N\ +\ e^-  +\ neutrino

After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.

Which best describes the particles in a gas when the temperature rises from 23 °C to 46 °C?
mariarad [96]
I think the correct answer is b. Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy so when temperarure rises so will the average kinetic energy. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

What aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure? A) 1.0 M KCl(aq) B) 1.0 M CaCl2(aq) C) 2.0 M KCl(aq) D
Lapatulllka [165]
The increase in the boiling point of a solvent is a colligative property.


That means that the increase in the boling point will be related to the number of particles (molecules or ions) present in the solution.


The higher the number of particles (molecules or ions) the higher the increase in the boiling point.


All the aqueous solutions presented are electrolytes, i.e. the solutes are ionic compounds.


Then, you have to compare the number of ions that you have in each solution.


A) 1.0 M KCl ---> 1.0 M K+     +      1.0 MCl-    = 2 moles of particles / liter


B) 1.0 M CaCl2 --> 1.0M Ca(2+)      +      1.0M * 2 Cl (-)    = 3 moles of particle / liter


C) 2.0M KCl ---> 2.0 M K+      +      2.0 M Cl-  = 4 moles of particle / liter


D) 2.0 M CaCl2 ----> 2.0 M Ca (2+)      + 2.0M * 2 Cl (-)  = 6 moles of particle / liter.


Then, the solution 2.0M CaCl2(aq) has the highest increase in the boiling point.


Answer: option D) 2.0 M Ca Cl2(aq)
