Alcohol or acid will travel the furthest up the paper chromatography? pls help thanks and explain
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Yes.

The distance that the molecules move depends on their solubility in the solvent and the size of the molecules. Heavy molecules will travel slower and therefore travel a shorter distance in the time the chromatography is run.

We know from such things as felt tip pens that colourings can be soluble in different solvents. Water soluble felt pens have colours that are - well - water soluble. Permanent felt pens have colours that are insoluble in water but that are soluble in another solvent. This could well be alcohol.

The water soluble colours may also be soluble in alcohol. The solubility in alcohol will be different from the solubility in alcohol, and so the Rf value ( the distance travelled) will also be different.

Because of the complicated shapes of the colours, the colours may not have the same order in the Rf values in the different solvents.

A fruit-and-oatmeal bar contains 142 nutritional Calories. Convert this energy to calories
madreJ [45]

Answer:

a fruit and oatmeal bar contains 142000 calories.

A nutritional calorie, or kilocalorie, is equal to 1000 calories.

E = 142 kcal · 1000 cal/kcal.

E = 142 000 cal.

Calorie (cal), or small calorie, is the amount of energy needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

One small calorie is approximately 4.2 joules.

A calorie is a unit of energy.

Use the equation n2 + 3h2=2nh3 if 8.0g N2 react, how many grams of NH3 will be produced
Eduardwww [97]

the balanced equation for the formation of ammonia is

N₂ + 3H₂ ---> 2NH₃

molar ratio of N₂ to NH₃ is 1:2

mass of N₂ reacted is 8.0 g

therefore number of N₂ moles reacted is - 8.0 g / 28 g/mol = 0.286 mol

according to the molar ratio,

1 mol of N₂ will react to give 2 mol of NH₃, assuming nitrogen is the limiting reactant

therefore 0.286 mol of N₂ should give - 2 x 0.286 mol = 0.572 mol of NH₃

therefore mass of NH₃ formed is - 0.572 mol x 17 g/mol = 9.72 g

a mass of 9.72 mol of NH₃ is formed

Partial charges will exist on each atom when a bond exists between two atoms with different electronegativities. Since the atom
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

negative, positive, increase

Explanation:

From the given question,  

During the formation of bond, between two atoms with difference between their electronegativity-

  • The more electronegative atom, will pull the electrons towards itself , and hence acquires a partial negative charge,

And,

  • The less electronegative atom, will acquire a partial positive charge.
  • The more the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the more would be the magnitude of partial charge.
  • And, the less would be the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the lesser would be the magnitude of partial charge.
