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

Bromine has a density of 3.10g/cm3. If you have 50.0 ML of bromine, how many grams do you have?
Zanzabum

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>155 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume of bromine = 50 mL

density = 3.10 g/cm³

It's mass is

mass = 50 × 3.10

We have the final answer as

<h3>155 g</h3>

Which gases contribute to the acid rain formation?
dusya [7]
The main chemicals in air pollution that create acid rain are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen (NOx). Acid rain usually forms high in the clouds where sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides react with water, oxygen, and oxidants. this mixture forms a mild solution of sulfuric acid and nitric acid

PLEASE HELP ME!
kifflom [539]

Explanation:

a. Magnesium oxide is used mainly in soil treatment and groundwater remediation, wastewater treatment, etc. it is used for it's acid buffering capacity and effectiveness in dissolving heavy metals.

b. MgO is the chemical equation for the reaction.

c. multiply the given mass of O2 by the inverse of it's molar mass. multiply the molar ratio (from the balanced equation) between O2 and MgO. Multiply by the molar mass of MgO. 32g O2 x 1 mol O2 ... 32g O2 x 2mol MgO 1mol O2 x 40g MgO. .... 1mol MgO = 80 g.

d. Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) produces MgCl 2(aq) + H 2 (g). Where the letter "s" stands for solids, and "g" is for gas and "aq" represents aqueous solution.
