Why is flameless heating used for heating a solution in hexane or diethyl ether during a recyrstallization?

Chemistry

kkurt [141]3 years ago
6 0

The technique which is used to purify the chemicals is said to be recrystallization.

In this process, solute is dissolved in a particular solvent and according to its principle, the quantity of solute which is dissolved by solvent increases with increase in temperature. The solutes are more soluble at high temperatures in comparison to room temperature (insoluble) or low temperature. Therefore, heating is needed to dissolve the solute in the solvent.

Now, in the case of hexane or diethyl ether, flameless heating is required because of their low boiling points implies if they heat directly on fire, then they have tendency to catch fire. Thus, hexane and diethyl ether are highly flammable.

Which of the following molecules or ions is polar? (20 POINTS)
inessss [21]

Answer:

All of these three are polar molecules or ions

Explanation:

1) CO3 ^2-

It is a polar ion because it consists of one Oxygen atom and three carbon atoms so there is a substantial electroegativity difference between carbon and Oxygen due to which shared electrons are attracted more towards Oxygen creating partial negative charge on it and less towards carbon creating a partial positive charge on it, which makes the overall ion polar.

2) HCN

HCN is a polar molecule because there is substantial electronegativity difference between Carbon and Hydrogen as well as between Carbon and Nitrogen. Due to this negative charge is induced over Nitrogen because electronegativity of Nitrogen is 3.0 and positive charge on Carbon because its electronegativity is 2.5. The overall molecule is polar.

3) NO3^-1

Nitrate ion is also a polar molecule because there are three atoms of Oxygen and one atom of Nitrogen. There is substantial electronegativity difference between oxygen (3.44) and nitrogen (3.0) due to which partial positive charge is created on Nitrogen and partial negative charge created over three Oxygen atoms. The overall molecule is polar.

Hope it helps!

There are 24 hours in a day, 60 minutes in an hour, 7 days in a week, and 4 weeks in a month? using these conversions how many m
Serggg [28]

Explanation:

From your information above, assume 1 month is 28 days

1 days=24hours ; 28 days=672 hours (just multiply 1 days with 28)

1 hour=60minutes ; 672 hours=40,320 minutes

.. 1 month=40,320 minutes

A student titrated 25.0 cm3 portions of dilute sulfuric acid with a 0.105 mol/dm3 sodium hydroxide solution.The equation for the
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete as the volume of the base that was used during the titration was not provided. However, the completed question is in the attachment below.

The formula to be used here is CₐVₐ/CbVb = nₐ/nb

where Cₐ is the concentration of the acid = unknown

Vₐ is the volume of the acid used = 25 cm³ (as seen in the question)

Cb is the concentration of the base = 0.105 mol/dm³ (as seen in the question)

Vb is the volume of the base = 22.13 cm³ (22.1 + 22.15 + 22.15/3)

nₐ is the number of moles of acid = 1 (from the chemical equation)

nb is the number of moles of base = 2 (from the chemical equation)

Note that the Vb was based on the concordant results (values within the range of 0.1 cm³ of each other on the table) of the student

Cₐ x 25/0.105 x 22.13 = 1/2

Cₐ x 25 x 2 = 0.105 x 22.13 x 1

Cₐ x 50 = 0.105 x 22.13

Cₐ = 0.105 x 22.13/50

Cₐ = 0.047  mol/dm³

The concentration of the sulfuric acid is 0.047  mol/dm³
