You are performing a gradient elution and are instructed to begin with a low polarity solvent (petroleum ether) and continue to

increase solvent polarity with MTBE. Why are the mobile phases added in order of increasing polarity rather than in the order of decreasing polarity?

Sophie [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The eluting strength of a solvent is primarily related to how strongly it adsorbs onto the  adsorbent and because typical adsorbents are highly polar; thus, eluting strength increases  with solvent polarity.

Explanation:

The polarity of a solvent makes it more suitable for elution in a polar adsorbent. Hence the choice of solvents should be in order of increasing rather than decreasing polarity. polarity must increase and not decrease

Air trapped in a cylinder fitted with a piston occupies 145 mL at 1.08 atm
pav-90 [236]

Answer: 0.0014 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Original pressure of air (P1) = 1.08 atm

Original volume of air (T1) = 145mL

[Convert 145mL to liters

If 1000mL = 1l

145mL = 145/1000 = 0.145L]

New volume of air (V2) = 111L

New pressure of air (P2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

1.08 atm x 0.145L = P2 x 111L

0.1566 atm•L = 111L•P2

Divide both sides by 111L

0.1566 atm•L/111L = 111L•P2/111L

0.0014 atm = P2

Thus, the new pressure of air when the volume is decreased to 111 L is 0.0014 atm

A 25.00-mL aliquot of a nitric acid solution of unknown concentration is pipetted into a 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask and 2 drops of
Semenov [28]

Answer:

0.0611M of HNO3

Explanation:

<em>The concentration of the NaOH solution must be 0.1198M</em>

<em />

The reaction of NaOH with HNO3 is:

NaOH + HNO3 → NaNO3 + H2O

<em>1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of HNO3.</em>

That means the moles of NaOH used in the titration are equal to moles of HNO3.

<em>Moles HNO3:</em>

12.75mL = 0.01275L * (0.1198mol / L) = 0.0015274 moles NaOH = Moles HNO3.

In 25.00mL = 0.025L -The volume of the aliquot-:

0.00153 moles HNO3 / 0.025L =

<h3> 0.0611M of HNO3</h3>

A bomb calorimeter has a heat capacity of 783 J/oC and contains 254 g of water whose specific heat capacity is 4.184 J/goC. How
IrinaK [193]

Answer : The amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the water

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the water

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 783J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water = 254 g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(23.73-26.01)=-2.28^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(783J/^oC\times -2.28^oC)+(254g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times -2.28^oC)]

q=-4208.28J=-4.81kJ

Therefore, the amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ
