What is meant by "steam distillation"? choose the correct option from below.

Physics
1 answer:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

b is the correct option.

Explanation:

Steam distillation is a distillation in which water is added to the mixture being distilled so that water and the organic compounds vaporize, condense and are collected together. This process is applied for the purification of those materials specially the organic materials which are temperature sensitive. The normal boiling method can not be implemented as these materials starts to decompose on high temperatures. This method has got a lot of applications in industries like petrolium refineries and the oil extraction from some plants etc.

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution ________ and the vapor pressure of
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution <u><em>decrease </em></u>and the vapor pressure of the solution <em><u>decrease </u></em>.

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point :

\Delta T_f=K_f\times m

where,

\Delta T_f =depression in freezing point =  

K_f = freezing point constant  

m = molality  ( moles per kg of solvent) of the solution

As we can see that from the formula that higher the molality of the solution is directly proportionate to the depression in freezing point which means that:

  1. If molality of the solution in high the depression in freezing point of the solution will be more.
  2. If molality of the solution in low the depression in freezing point of teh solution will be lower .

Relative lowering in vapor pressure of the solution is given by :

\frac{p_o-p_s}{p_o}=\chi_{solute}

p_o = Vapor pressure of pure solvent

p_s  = Vapor pressure of solution

\chi_{solute} = Mole fraction of solute

p_s\propto \frac{1}{\chi_{solute}}

Vapor pressure of the solution is inversely proportional to the mole fraction of solute.

  1. Higher the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and decrease in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.
  2. lower the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and increase in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.

Debbie places two shopping carts in a cart Corral. she pushes the first cart, which then pushes a second cart. what force is bei
Bingel [31]

When Debbie pushes the first cart she is using an applied force. An applied force is created when someone or something pushes another thing using, of course, an applied force. Now, when the second cart is being pushed by the first cart, this is also an applied force. You can tell because the first cart is being pushed using forced and this causes the second cart to be pushed using some of the force that is being transmitted to the first cart.


Debbie exerts applied force on the first cart. The first cart exert applied force on the second cart.

A proton initially at rest is accelerated by a uniform electric field. The proton moves 5.62 cm in 1.15 x 10^-6 s. Find the volt
krok68 [10]

Answer:

49.85 V

Explanation:

u = 0, s = 5.62 cm, t = 1.15 x 10^-6 s

Let the electric field is E and voltage is V.

Use second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

5.62 x 10^-2 = 0 + 0.5 a x (1.15 x 10^-6)^2

a = 8.5 x 10^10 m/s^2

m x a = q x E

E = m x a / q

E = (1.67 x 10^-27 x 8.5 x 10^10) / (1.6 x 10^-19)

E = 887.19 V/m

V = E x s

V = 887.19 x 5.62 x 10^-2 = 49.85 V
