In this experiment, 0.070 g of caffeine is dissolved in 4.0mL of water. The caffeine is extracted from the aqueous solution thre

e times with 2.0-mL portions of methylene chloride. Calculate the total amount of caffeine that can be extracted into the three portions of methylene chloride (see Technique12, Section12.2). Caffeine has a distribution coefcient of 4.6, between methylene chloride and water.

Answer:

0.068 g

Explanation:

The equation that is used to determine the fraction q remaining in water of volume V₁ after n extractions of volume V₂ is:

qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + KV₂))ⁿ

Substituting in the values gives the fraction of caffeine left in the water phase:

q³ = (4.0mL/(4.0mL + 4.6(2.0mL))³ = 0.0278

The fraction of caffeine extracted into the methylene chloride phase is:

1 - 0.0278 = 0.972

The amount of caffeine extracted into the methylene chloride is:

(0.070g)(0.972) = 0.068 g

Which type of change must occur to form a compound? (1) chemical (3) nuclear(2) physical (4) phase?
Leya [2.2K]
Let's go through each of the answers and think about why they work or don't work. 

Chemical forms compounds. 

Nuclear changes the element completely. We're going to use the sun as an example. The sun is in a state of plasma. It's really hot and has all these particles hitting into each other. The nucleus' of atoms are hitting into each other forming larger elements. It's real crazy. Nuclear is not correct. 

Physical cannot form a compound.
