uppose a system consists of 50 mg of organic compound dissolved in 1.00 mL of water (solvent 1). Compare the effectiveness of on

e 1.5-mL extraction versus three 0.5-mL extractions with ether (solvent 2) where the distribution coefficient, K, is equal to 10. Which is more effective

Answer: the more effective is using three 0.5-mL extractions with ether

Explanation:

Using 1.5 ml of ether

Q = [Vaq/(K×Vorg +Vaq)]^n

Q= remaining fraction

Vaq= volume of aqueous phase

Vorg= volume of organic phase

K= distribution coefficient

Using 1.5 ml ether once

Vaq= 1ml, K= 10, n=1

Q = [Vaq/(K×Vorg +Vaq)]^n

Q= [1/10×1.5+1)]^1 = 0.0625

Using 0.5ml ether 3 times

Q = [1/(10×0.5 +1)]^3= 0.0046

Hence using 0.5ml of ether 3 times is more effective

Which substance most likely has the strongest intermolecular forces?
serious [3.7K]

Answer: -

Acetic acid

Explanation: -

The intermolecular force of attraction depends on the strength or extent of Hydrogen bonding present in a substance.

Benzene and chloroform does not have hydrogen bonding being non polar molecule.

Water has hydrogen bonding being polar.

However acetic acid being most polar has the maximum hydrogen bonding.

Thus acetic acid has the strongest intermolecular forces of attraction.

Alchemists in the Middle Ages dreamed of converting base metals, such as lead, into precious metals—gold and silver. Why could t
lesantik [10]

Explanation:

Each element in the periodic table has different but fixed number of the protons in nucleus of it's atom, which is known as the atomic number.

Transmutation of one chemical element into the another involves the changing of the atomic number. Such nuclear reaction requires millions of the times more energy as compared to normal chemical reactions. Thus, the dream of  the alchemist of transmuting the lead into the gold was never achievable chemically .

Conversion of lead to gold in today's world:

This conversion is indeed possible. The requirements are a particle accelerator, tremendous supply of the energy. Nuclear scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory located in California, more than 30 years ago, succeeded in producing very minute amounts of the gold from the bismuth. Bismuth is a metallic element which is adjacent to the lead on periodic table. Same process would work for the lead but isolating gold at end of reaction would prove much more difficult because lead is available in many isotopes. The homogeneous nature of the element means that it is easier to separate the gold from the bismuth as compared to separate the gold from the lead which has four  isotopic identities which all are stable.
