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

Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4 ·5 H2O, (molar mass 250 g/mol) can be dehydrated by repeated heating in a crucible. Which
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Molar mass of CuSO4*5H2O = 250 g/mol

Molar mass of CuSO4 = 160 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water lost

Mass of water lost = 250 - 160 = 90 grams

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate % water

% water = (mass water / total mass of hydrate)*100 %

% water = (90 grams / 250 grams )*100% = 36 %

We can control this by the following equation

The hydrate has 5 moles of H2O

5*18. = 90 grams

(90/250)*100% = 36%

(160/250)*100% = 64 %

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

An ionic compound is formed when there is a reaction between the elements
hjlf

Answer:

An ionic compound is formed when there is a reaction between the elements whose ions are electrostatically attracted.

Explanation:

The ionic compounds form crystalline networks with ionic bonding. Electrostatic attraction is a very strong bond that is very difficult to break. The stability of the ionic compound depends on the lattice energy, the higher it is, the more stable the compound is and the lattice energy is that which is released in the formation. At room temperature they are always in a solid state, because the bonds are very close and as stated before, they are difficult to break (providing a lot of energy)
