Distillation is the process of separating homogeneous mixtures -and a solution is a homogenous mixture, so this is the correct answer!
A homoogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the elements are mixed so well, that the mixture has a similar composition in all its parts. A heat can be applied to this mixture then to separate the parts - this is destination!
Answer:
The concentration of methyl isonitrile will become 15% of the initial value after 10.31 hrs.
Explanation:
As the data the rate constant is not given in this description, However from observing the complete question the rate constant is given as a rate constant of 5.11x10-5s-1 at 472k .
Now the ratio of two concentrations is given as

Here C/C_0 is the ratio of concentration which is given as 15% or 0.15.
k is the rate constant which is given as 
So time t is given as

So the concentration will become 15% of the initial value after 10.31 hrs.
Ethanoic (Acetic) acid is a weak acid and do not dissociate fully. Therefore its equilibrium state has to be considered here.

In this case pH value of the solution is necessary to calculate the concentration but it's not given here so pH = 2.88 (looked it up)
pH = 2.88 ==>
![[H^{+}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D)
=

= 0.001

The change in Concentration Δ
![[CH_{3}COOH]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D)
= 0.001

CH3COOH H+ CH3COOH
Initial

0 0
Change

-0.001 +0.001 +0.001
Equilibrium

- 0.001 0.001 0.001
Since the

value is so small, the assumption
![[CH_{3}COOH]_{initial} = [CH_{3}COOH]_{equilibrium}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D_%7Binitial%7D%20%3D%20%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D_%7Bequilibrium%7D)
can be made.
![k_{a} = [tex]= 1.8*10^{-5} = \frac{[H^{+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]} = \frac{0.001^{2}}{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20k_%7Ba%7D%20%3D%20%5Btex%5D%3D%201.8%2A10%5E%7B-5%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D%7D%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B0.001%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7Bx%7D%20)
Solve for x to get the required concentration.
note: 1.)Since you need the answer in 2SF don&t round up values in the middle of the calculation like I've done here.
2.) The ICE (Initial, Change, Equilibrium) table may come in handy if you are new to problems of this kind
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Option B. is the right answer.
Explanation:
Before developing a new technology, an engineer has to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the chemical used in order to clean water bodies. If the chemical has more disadvantages as compared to advantages, so its usage will be avoided while if the chemical does not harm the marine organisms of the ocean so it can be used for the purpose of cleaning. So we can say that first the engineer has to study the chemicals.
