Answer:

One extraction: 50%

Two extractions: 75%

Three extractions: 87.5%

Four extractions: 93.75%

Explanation:

The following equation relates the fraction q of the compound left in volume V₁ of phase 1 that is extracted n times with volume V₂.

qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + KV₂))ⁿ

We also know that V₂ = 1/2(V₁) and K = 2, so these expressions can be substituted into the above equation:

qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + 2(1/2V₁))ⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + V₁))ⁿ =  (V₁/(2V₁))ⁿ = (1/2)ⁿ

When n = 1, q = 1/2, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is also 1/2, or 50%.

When n = 2, q = (1/2)² = 1/4, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/4) = 3/4 or 75%.

When n = 3, q = (1/2)³ = 1/8, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/8) = 7/8 or 87.5%.

When n = 4, q = (1/2)⁴ = 1/16, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/16) = 15/16 or 93.75%.

fish give off the compound ammonia which has a pH above 7 to which class of compounds does ammonia belong
jasenka [17]
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The compound ammonia given by fish is alkaline

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>We can classify elements/compounds based on their pH values into three types:</u>
<u>acids:</u> these are compounds having pH value lower than 7
<u>neutral:</u> these are compounds having pH value equal to 7
<u>alkalies:</u> these are compounds having pH values higher than 7

This is shown in the attached image

We are given that the pH of the compound ammonia generated by the fish is above 7.
According to the above explanation, compound ammonia would be an alkaline compound.

Hope this helps :)</span>
