During a solvent extraction, a student lost track of which layer was the aqueous layer and which layer was the organic layer. Wh

at simple, non-destructive test could be used to determine which layer is which?
a. add a little distilled water to see which layer the water adds to

b. obtain a sample of the solution in the seperatory funnel and ultilize IR

c. ask the instructor if you can perform a supercritical extraction of the sample

c. obtain a sample of solution in seperatory funnel and utilize infrared spectroscopy (IR).

Answer:

a. add a little distilled water to see which layer the water adds to

Explanation:

The problem tells us to keep in mind two major aspects of the test: It has to be <em>simple</em>, as well as <em>non-destructive</em>:

  • Adding distilled water can be made in under a minute, without requiring specialized laboratory equipment, unlike IR.
  • It is also non-destructive, because the contents on either layer won't change due to the added distilled water.

A. add a little-distilled water to see which layer the water adds to

depending density of organic solvent-water layer can be top or bottom when we add little water you can absorb water addition or repulsion which helps to identify water layer

The filling of which orbital is represented by the transition metals in period 4?
Sindrei [870]

Answer: 3d

Explantion:

1) Period 4 contains the elements with atomic numbers 19 through 36.

2) The elements with atomic numbers 19 (K) and 20 (Ca) fill the orbital 4s.

3) After that, as Aufbau's rule may help you to remember, the energy of the orbitals 3d is lower than the energy of the orbtitals 4p. So, the element 21 (Sc) start fillind the orbital 3d.

There are ten 3d orbitals, so the elements 21 through 30 fill the 3d orbitals.

Those elements, called transition metals are: Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn.

When the 3d orbitals are full, the next elements in the same period 4, fill the six 4p orbitals.

Answer:

D. 18.7 grams

Explanation:

The coefficients are the key.

Create a proportion with them, and the molar mass, and then solve for x:

\frac{2}{3}  =  \frac{x}{28}  \\ 3x = 2(28) \\ 3x = 56 \\ x = 18.666... = 18.7
