Put it in a beaker. Use a smaller beaker filled half way with ice and water and place in the larger one. It should be about an inch or two above the mixture. Heat over a Bunsen burner and the naphthalene will deposit on the bottom of smaller beaker.

And in this way, nephthalene be separated from the mixture of KBR and sand.

Explanation:

A mixture of naphthalene in KBr and sand can be separated by heating as naphthalene has low boiling point. Hence, its volatility is high due to which it will easily escape out from the mixture.

So, vapors of naphthalene can be collected through sublimation. As a result, naphthalene will be separated out from the mixture.

Now, only KBr and sand is left in the mixture. So, water will be added in to this mixture due to which KBr will dissolve in it. And upon filtration sand will be separated out of this mixture.

Whereas upon heating the mixture of water and KBr, water will evaporate and crystals of KBr will be obtained. As a result, all the components of this mixture will be separated out.

Compare the reactivity of magnesium and calcium explain the difference
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Calcium is more reactive than magnesium because calcium atom is larger than magnesium atom and it has one more energy level. ... Thus Ca is more reactive than Mg.

Balanced chemical reaction: A + 5C ⇄ AC₅.
<span>[A] = 0.100 M; equilibrium concentration.
</span><span>[C] = 0.0380 M.
</span>[AC₅] = 0.100 M.
Kf = [AC₅] / ([A] · [C]⁵).
Kf = 0.100 M ÷ (0.100 M · (0.0380 M)⁵.
Kf = 12620658.54 = 1,26·10⁷.

A student claims that if she wanted to make a solution quickly, she should use small pellets instead of powder along with heatin
vova2212 [387]

Answer: Yes we agree with the student's claim.

Explanation:

When the molecules are present in smaller size, more reactants can react as decreasing the size increases the surface area of the reactants which will enhance the contact of molecules.Hence, more products will form leading to increased rate of reaction.

On increasing the temperature will make more reactant molecules will have sufficient energies to cross the energy barrier and thus the number of effective collisions increases, thus leading to more products and increased rate of reaction.

When the solution is stirred , the molecule's kinetic energy and thus the rate of reaction increases.

Thus smaller size, stirring and increase of temperature will make the solution quickly.
