Answer:

In order  to determine unequivocally which of the peaks represent Aldrin, I would run the pure sample through the chromatography equipment.

Explanation:

Gas chromatography is a technique that separates molecules based on their volatility and interaction with both the stationary phase.

The peaks on the chromatogram show how long a substance took to leave the column. Since each different substance substance will leave the column at a different time, each peak can be attributed to a substance.

Therefore, to know which of the 6 peaks represent Aldrin, it is necessary to run the pure Aldrin in the chromatography equipment and see the time of the peak. Then you just need to compare both chromatograms and indentify Aldrin.

Express the product of 5.4 mm and 6.02 mm using the correct number of significant digits.
krek1111 [17]

we are asked to multiply 5.4 mm by 6.02 mm

5.4 mm has 2 significant figures

6.02 mm has 3 significant figures

When multiplying these 2 numbers the answer should have the least number of significant figures

From the 2 numbers the least number of significant figures is 2 , therefore answer should be rounded off to 2 significant numbers

5.4 x 6.02 = 32.5 rounded off is 33

Answer is b. 33 m^2

Enter the chemical formula of a binary molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element that can reasonably be expected to
rosijanka [135]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Enter the chemical formula of a binary molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element that can reasonably be expected to be more acidic in aqueous solution than H2S , e.g. have a larger Ka.

Answer:

H2Se

Explanation:

The acidity and extent of acid dissociation (shown by Ka value) depends on the nature of the bond between hydrogen and the group 6A element.

If we compare the H-S bond and the H-Se bond, we will discover that the H-Se bond is longer, weaker and breaks more easily than the H-S bond. As a result of this, H2Se is more acidic than H2S.
