Explain why it is important that there be no gaps around the edges of the filter paper during a vacuum filtration

1 answer:

6 0

Vacuum filtration is a process of separating the solid from liquids. A Buchner funnel and side arm flask is used for this process. The filter paper is placed on the Buchner funnel, the size of the filter paper should fit on the funnel and should cover all the holes. To obtain the correct yield of the solid product from the vacuum filtration process, there should be no gaps around the edges of the filter paper as if there are any gaps around the edges of the filter paper, the solid precipitate will pass through the gaps with liquid and thus, results in the low percentage yield of the solid compound.

Hence, to obtain the correct yield percentage of the solid compound there should be no gaps around the edges of the filter paper during the vacuum filtration.

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid. Classify each of these statements based

sattari [20]

Answer:

1.High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid :

Describe both water and other substances

2.High pressure will cause the solid to become liquid :

It describe none : neither water nor other substances 

This statement is :False for both water and other substances

3.The solid is more dense than the liquid :

It describe other substance

This statement is :False for water but true for other substances.

4. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

It describes water:

This statement is :True for water because solid ice is less dense than liquid water.

False for other substance, they have positive slope

5.The molecules are closest in the liquid phase.

This statement is :False for water and other substances

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid:

It Describes water because ice is less dense than liquid water

7. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope.

It describe other substances

This statement is :True for other substances but false for water

8. The molecules are closest in the solid phase :

Describes both water and other substances

Explanation:

Answers to statement 1 , 2,5 and 8

Answers to statement 1 , 2

On increasing pressure and decreasing temperature , There occur Phase transition always for every substance :

From liquid to solid and gas to liquid

Hence,

In Both for water and other substance

High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid.

Answers to statement 5,8 :

2.The Particles of solid are closely packed hence there is maximum force of attraction between the particle of solid as compared to liquid and gases .

Hence , The molecules of both water and other substances are closest in the solid phase

This also means that in liquid molecules are far apart .

Rest statement : 3, 4 ,6 ,7 are explained below(see attached image)

The molecules are closest in the liquid phase is false statement and does not describe both water and other substance

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid.

This can be explained using the phase diagram of water :

The line DB is = the solid-liquid coexistence line

It has negative slope because , solid ice is less dense than liquid water . That is why ice floats on water because its density is less than water

Hence Water is described truly by statement 4,6, which are :

4. the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid.

Rest 3,7 = describe by other substance

other substance : Solid is more dense than the liquid ,the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope

. What is a carbonyl group? Draw the carbonyl groups that are characteristic of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters

Elan Coil [88]

Answer :

Carbonyl group : It is a functional group composed of a carbon atom that double bonded to oxygen atom. It is represented as $C=O$

Carboxylic group : It is the class of organic compound in which the carboxylic (-COOH) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as carboxylic.

The general formula of carboxylic is, $C_nH_{2n+1}COOH$ . According to the IUPAC naming, the carboxylic are named as alkanoic acids.

Aldehyde group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CHO) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as aldehyde.

The general representation of aldehyde is, $R-CHO$ . According to the IUPAC naming, the aldehyde are named as alkanals.

Ketone group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ketone.

The general representation of ketone is, $R-CO-R^'$ . According to the IUPAC naming, the ketone are named as alkanone.

Ester group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-COO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ester.

The general representation of ester is, $R-COO-R^'$ . According to the IUPAC naming, the ester are named as alkyl alkanoate.

Design and implement a program (name it SumValue) that reads three integers (say X, Y, and Z) and prints out their values on sep

rjkz [21]

Answer:

class sum (

public static void sumofvalue (int m, int n, int p)

{

System.out.println(m);

System.out.println(n);

System.out.println(p);

int SumValue=m+n+p;

System.out.println("Average="+Sumvalue/3);

}

)

Public class XYZ

(

public static void main(String [] args)

{

sum ob=new sum();

int X=3;

int X=4;

int X=5;

ob.sumofvalue(X,Y,Z);

int X=7;

int X=8;

int X=10;

ob.sumofvalue(X,Y,Z);

}

)

Explanation:

The above program is made in Java, in which first we have printed value in a separate line. After that, the average value of those three values has been printed according to the question.

The processing of the program is given below in detail

* The first one class named 'sum' has been created which contains the function to print individual value and the average of those three values.

* In seconds main class named 'XYZ', the object of that the above class had been created which call the method of the above class to perform functions.

* In the main class values are assigned to variables X, Y, Z.

The density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (v).

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Density is an intensive property

Explanation:

The intensive properties don´t depend on mass or size, if you have a liter of water, this litter have a density equal 1000 kg/m^3. If zo have 250 liters of water, the density is 1000 kg/m^3 too.

The density does not change with the addition or substraction of matter.

I hope I have been clear.
