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.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

pH = 4.26

Explanation:

Bromocresol green is a commonly used pH indicator. The concentration ratio of the acid form to base form explains its color, which reflects the pH of the medium.

C₂₁H₁₄Br₄O₅S + H₂O ⇄ C₂₁H₁₃Br₄O₅S⁻ + H₃O⁺

      acid                       conjugate base

We can calculate the pH through Henderson-Hasselbalch's equation:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{[base]}{[acid]} )=4.66+log(\frac{1}{2.49} )=4.26

nordsb [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  molality = 0.61

Explanation:

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid if a solute is added to a solution, the freezing point changes.

Data

Kf = 1.86 °C/m

molality = ?

ΔTc = 1.13°C

Formula

ΔTc = kcm

Solve for m

m = ΔTc/kc

Substitution

m = 1.13 / 1.86

Simplification and result

m = 0.61
