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 unit "troy ounce" is often used for precious metals such as gold (Au) and platinum (Pt) (1 troy ounce= 31.103 g). (a) A gold
frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) 1 troy ounce is equal to 31.103 g

2.41 troy ounce is equal to 2.41 x 31.103 g

= 74.958 g

b) 1  ounce = 1 / 16 lb = 1/16 x 453.6 g = 28.35 g.

1 troy ounce = 31.103 g

so 1 troy ounce is heavier than 1 ounce.

Write a balanced equation of decomposition reaction which is carried out by the catalyst
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which the compound is broken up into its constituents.

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which the compound is broken up into its constituents. When the decomposition is brought about by a catalyst, it is called catalytic decomposition.

Let us look at the catalytic decomposition of the compound potassium trioxochlorate V. in the presence of the catalysts manganese dioxide. The reaction occurs as follows;

2KClO3 -----> 2KCl + 3O2

A 100. mL volume of 0.800 M calcium chloride is mixed with 400. mL of water to make 500. mL of solution. What is the final molar
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

0.99mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity ( M) = # of moles of solute / volume of solution (L)

Volume of Solution = 100 mL or 0.1 L

Molarity ( M) = # of moles of solute / volume of solution (L)

Molarity (M) = 0.099 mol / 0.1 L = 0.99mol/ L
