Bob the chemist ran a TLC plate of his product, but the spot would not move off the baseline. The eluent he used consisted of a

30% polar / 70% non-polar solvent system. Which solvent system should he try next in order to get the compounds in his product mixture to move up the plate

Answer:

40 % polar / 60 % nonpolar system

Explanation:

According to the like-dissolves-like rule, remember that polar compounds dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds dissolve in nonpolar solvents.

Notice that the eluent used is only slightly polar and mainly nonpolar. Since the product didn't move at all, this means it didn't interact with the major nonpolar solvent and is expected to be polar.

That said, a more polar system should be used in order to make the product move off the baseline, such as 40 % polar and 60 % nonpolar solvent system.

In case the product still doesn't move, polarity of the eluent should be increased further.

The answer would be "false" or the second option. A opinion is what you think on a certain subject and science is full of facts and opinions of other scientist which would mean your using someone else for your opinion just remember opinions is what you think about a subject and you can't use science for your opinion.

Hope this helps!

Acetylene gas (C2H2) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide
Luda [366]

A. The balanced equation for the reaction is

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

B. The volume of the oxygen gas required to burn 0.700 L of acetylene gas is 1.75 L

C. The volume of carbon dioxide gas produced is 1.4 L

D. The volume of water vapor produced is 0.7 L

<h3>A. Balanced equation </h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between acetylene gas (C₂H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂) is given below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

<h3>B. How to determine the volume of oxygen </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Since the reaction occurred at standard temperature and pressure, we can thus say that:

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted with 5 L O₂.

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react with = (0.7 × 5) / 2 = 1.75 L of O₂

Thus, 1.75 L of O₂ is needed for the reaction

<h3>C. How to determine the volume of carbon dioxide </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 4 L of CO₂

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react to produce = (0.7 × 4) / 2 = 1.4 L of CO₂

Thus, 1.4 L of CO₂ were produced

<h3>D. How to determine the volume of water. </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 2 L of H₂O

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will also react to produce 0.7 L of H₂O

Thus, 0.7 L of H₂O was produced

What is the formula of the chromium(iii) complex that contains two ammonia and four thiocyanate (scn−) ligands?
Nonamiya [84]
Answer is: formula of the complex is [Cr(NH₃)₂(SCN)₄<span>]</span>⁻<span>.
This complex has negative charge (-1) because chromium (central atom or metal) has oxidation number +3, first ligand ammonia has neutral charge and second ligand thiocyanate has negative oxidation number -1:
+3 + 2</span>·0 + 4·(-1) = -1.
