In a paper chromatography analysis, three pigments, A, B, and C, were dissolved in a solvent. A is slightly polar, B is highly p

olar, and C is moderately polar. List in order how these will appear on the surface of the chromatography strip starting from the applied spot at the origin line.

Answer:It would depend on the eluent solvent what we use ,If we would use a polar solvent than B will be appear first followed by c and then A on the chromatography strip.

If we use non-polar eluent solvent than A will be separated first followed by C and thenB on the chromatography strip.

Explanation:

Separation using paper chromatography is dependent upon the polarity of various  pigments .

A polar pigment would move ahead in case of polar solvent used and a non-polar pigment would move ahead when we use a non-polar solvent.

So separation would occur in order of polarity  of various pigments in a given solvent.

The amount of distance travelled by each component (or pigment or spot) can be calculated using the formula for retention factor:

Rf= Distance travelled by pigment spot or solute/Distance travelled by eluent solvent

Rf= Retention factor

Retention factor is basically the ratio of distance tarvelled by the pigment or spot to the ratio of distance travelled by the solvent.

How does a greenhouse keep radiant energy from escaping?
Rina8888 [55]
Greenhouse effect is the process of trapping sun radiation in the earth surface, so as to make the planet warm. It is a natural phenomenon in which sun rays that enters the earth surface are re-radiated into the earth surface causing the heat trap in the earth.
In similar manner, green house also trap radiation inside the glass house. The sun rays once reach inside the glass house, strike on plants and objects and reflected back. For entire radiation to escape from the green house, the heat flow between the two points must be proportional to the temperature difference and thermal conductivity. The glass of which the green house are made up, have low thermal conductivity. So, temperature must rise inside glass house so to maintain the heat flow rate of incoming and outgoing radiation.
The green house glass are insulated and they trap the infrared emitted by the objects inside the green house from escaping outside. Since the infrared have longer wave lengths, it is released slowly. 

Also, the thermal energy inside the glass house are transferred by convection process. But the glass walls and roof act as insulator, keeping the radiant energy from escaping outside the green house.<span />

In Denver, Colorado the elevation is about 5,280 feet above sea level. Explain what potential effects this may have on the solub
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The solubility of the gaseous solute decreases

Explanation:

As we know, pressure decreases with altitude. This means that, at higher altitudes, the pressure is much lower than it is at sea level.

The solubility of a gas increases with increase in pressure and decreases with decrease in pressure.

Hence, in Denver, Colorado where the elevation is about 5,280 feet above sea level, a gaseous solute is less soluble than it is at sea level due to the lower pressure at such high altitude.

Which is the correct equilibrium constant expression for the following reaction? 2brcl 3 (g) br 2 (g) 3cl 2 (g)
marishachu [46]

Kc = concentrations of product / concentrations of reactant

Kc = [Br₂] [Cl₂]₃ / [BrCl₃]₂

What is the equilibrium constant?

The relationship between a reaction's products and reactants with regard to a certain unit is expressed by the equilibrium constant(K) This article introduces the mathematics needed to determine the partial pressure equilibrium constant as well as how to formulate expressions for equilibrium constants. By allowing a single reaction to reach equilibrium and then measuring the concentrations of each chemical participating in that reaction, one can determine the numerical value of an equilibrium constant. it is the ratio of product concentrations to reactant concentrations. The equilibrium constant for a given reaction is unaffected by the initial concentrations because the concentrations are measured at equilibrium.

Which answer choice lists the number and type of elements in a compound in the way that is close to their actual arrangement?
alexandr1967 [171]

The chemical formula of a compound express the atoms by which the molecule is formed and the ratio of the atoms in which they are combined.

The space filling model of a compound describe the electron density in the compound of each atom.

The ball and stick arrangement of a compound describe the way in which the molecules are present in three dimensions.

The structural formula state the number of atoms present in the molecule, the type of element or atom present in the molecule and the way in which they are arranged closely which is the bond.

Thus only the structural formula only will cover all the options as stated.
