Answer:
b. Extraction with a solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate, separating the layers, followed by drying and evaporating the organic layer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ether solution contains your product, benzaldehyde, and some starting material, benzoic acid, the purification steps are:
- Extract with a solution of NaHCO₃. The ether layer contains benzaldehyde, and the aqueous layer contains sodium benzoate.
- Separate the layers. Keep the ether layer.
- Dry the ether solution.
- Distill the ether (boiling point 35 °C) and purify the benzaldehyde (178 °C) by steam distillation.
a. is wrong. Extraction with HCl will not remove much of the benzoic acid.
c. is wrong. If you evaporate the organic layer, you will have a mixture of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid.
d. is wrong. If you work with the aqueous layer, you will end up with benzoic acid,
One substance can be separated from another through physical means
Answer:
Chemical Change
Explanation:
Physical change normally mean that the change can revert back to its orginal state, which in this case that is not possible therfore it is a chemical change.
Answer:
80.8 g
Explanation:
First, let's write a balanced equation of this reaction
MgO + 2HNO₃ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + H₂O
Now let's convert grams to moles
We gotta find the weight of MgO
24 + 16 = 40 g/mol
12/40 = 0.3 moles of MgO
We can use this to find out how much Magnesium Nitrate will be formed
0.3 x 1 MgO / 1 Mg(NO₃)₂ = 0.3 moles of Magnesium Nitrate formed
Convert moles to grams
Find the weight of Mg(NO₃)₂ but don't forget that 2 subscript acts as a multiplier of whatever is inside that parenthesis.
24 + 14 x 2 + 16 x 3 x 2 = 148 g/mol
148 x 0.3 = 80.8 g
