The following gases are at STP. Which one will diffuse the fastest? F2, CO2, He, SO2, NO, NH3

1 answer:

3 0

This can be solve using the grahams law, which states that the rate of diffusion of the gas is inversely proportional the square root of the molar mass of the gas. meaning the gas with smaller molar mass is the fastest to diffuse

molar mass of the following
F2 = 38 g/mol
CO2 = 44 g/mol
He = 4 g/mol
SO2 = 64 g/mol
NO = 30 g/mol
NH3 = 17 g/mol

so the fastest is He

These questions are from an experiment where we had a mixture of Ferrocene, acetylferrocene and diacetyl ferrocene and we separa

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The polarity of the 3 compounds would be in the order of

Ferrocene < Acetylferrocene < Diacetylferrocene

Your TLC data has to also support this observation . This can be checked by measuring the values of Rf ( Retention factor = distance travelled by solute/solvent ) .The Rf values also has to follow this particular order: -

Ferrocene > acetylferrocene > diacetylferrocene

2) Hexane happens to be a non-polar solvent. The polarity of hexane can be increased if some polar solvents for example, ethyl and methylene chloride etc are added

Therefore, in the increasing order of solvents polarity, we have

Hexane < 1:1 mixture of hexane: methylene chloride < 9:1 mixture of methylene chloride:

3) Chromatographic techniques all have a stationary phase in addition to a mobile phase. In the case of column chromatography, the silica gel will be the stationary phase and the solvent that will be poured will be the mobile phase.

4) The TLC and column chromatography both happen to have the same stationary phase which is the silica gel. Also, the same solvent mixture is used in both the techniques. This makes the result of the 2 to be almost the same. The difference seen between them is that, TLC works against the gravity while on the other hand column chromatography works in the direction of the gravity.

5) The key feature in the IR spectra of the acetylferrocene that will be absent in the spectra of ferrocene is the presence of carbonyl stretching frequency at close to 1700 per cm(cm-1). This peak is easily differentiated between both acetyl ferrocene and ferrocene.
