Suppose you have a mixture of copper sulfate (CuSO4) and azulene (C10H8, you may wish to know the structure of azulene). Both co
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Aqueous layer (1 M HCI)

Explanation:

First of us I want to remind you of the cliché in chemistry that like dissolves like. In solvent extraction, a mixture is dissolved in a system consisting of two immiscible solvents. One layer is organic while the other layer is aqueous.

Polar substances partition in the aqueous layer while nonpolar substances partition in the organic layer.

Since Copper sulfate is ionic, we will find it in the aqueous layer according to the old chemistry cliche.

Why are large differences in temperature between the wet bulb and dry bulb thermometers are possible only at higher temperatures
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

At constant vapor pressure, the relative humidity decreases as the temperature increases, therefore, at higher temperature the relative humidity is low and water readily evaporates from the wet bulb thermometer that results in the cooling of the bulb such that at a given ambient temperature the very low relative humidity results in very large differences between the temperatures of the wet bulb thermometer and that of the dry bulb thermometer and the wet bulb is observed to be the colder thermometer of the two

What is the molecular formula of a hydrocarbon with m+ = 78?
fiasKO [112]

A molecular formula represents the exact number of atoms present for each element in the compound.  

For carbon atom: \frac{78}{12} = 6\frac{6}{12} ( as molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol)

Now, 6 carbon atoms are present and rest are hydrogen atoms i.e. 6

Thus, formula becomes C_{6}H_{6} ( C_{x}H_{y})

Now, check for unsaturation:

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2x+2-y}{2}

Substitute the value of x and y,

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2(6)+2-6}{2}

= \frac{12-4}{2}

= 4 implies one ring and three double bonds.

Thus, formula comes out to be C_{6}H_{6} i.e. benzene ring.

How many molecules of CaCl2 are equivalent to 75.9 g CaCl2
sergij07 [2.7K]
First, you need to find:
One mole of CaCl_{2} is equivalent to how many grams?

Well, for this you have to look up the periodic table. According to the periodic table:
The atomic mass of Calcium Ca = 40.078 g (See in group 2)
The atomic mass of <span>Chlorine Cl = 35.45 g (See in group 17)
</span>
As there are two atoms of Chlorine present in CaCl_{2}, therefore, the atomic mass of CaCl_{2} would be:

Atomic mass of CaCl_{2}  = Atomic mass of Ca + 2 * Atomic mass of Cl

Atomic mass of CaCl_{2} = 40.078 + 2 * 35.45 = 110.978 g

Now,

110.978 g of CaCl_{2} = 1 mole.
75.9 g of CaCl_{2} = \frac{75.9}{110.978} moles = 0.6839 moles.

Hence,
The total number of moles in 75.9g of CaCl_{2} = 0.6839 moles

According to <span>Avogadro's number,
1 mole = 1 * </span>6.022 * 10^{23} molecules
0.6839 moles = 0.6839 * 6.022 * 10^{23} molecules = 4.118*10^{23} molecules

Ans: Number of molecules in 75.9g of  CaCl_{2} =  4.118*10^{23} molecules
