7 0

Answer:

The answer is B

[The extracting solvent should be non-toxic and readily available]

Explanation:

The extracting solvent should not pose a risk to life (or the risk have to be minimum) and be available in large quantity.

A. Most of the extracting solvents are volatile, and is a good think because you can remove them by distillation.

C. The extraction solvent should <u>not</u> react with the solute, because you lose the extracted compound.

D. The extraction solvent should <u>not</u> be miscible with water. Usually you extract compounds organic compounds from water using an appropriate extracting solvent.

A bomb calorimeter has a heat capacity of 783 J/oC and contains 254 g of water whose specific heat capacity is 4.184 J/goC. How
IrinaK [193]

Answer : The amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the water

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the water

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 783J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water = 254 g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(23.73-26.01)=-2.28^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(783J/^oC\times -2.28^oC)+(254g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times -2.28^oC)]

q=-4208.28J=-4.81kJ

Therefore, the amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ

What do acids feel like
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

In fact, some strong bases can burn the skin as badly as strong acids. Bases feel soapy or slippery because they react with acidic molecules in your skin called fatty acids. ... Like acids, bases change the colors of acid-base indicators, but the colors they produce are different. Bases turn litmus paper blue.

Holly has an unknown substance in a beaker. she wants to determine the relative ph of the unknown substance. she places a piece
AURORKA [14]

Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of an acid. Therefore, it can be assumed that the substance in the beaker is an acid.

Acids have a pH level of less than 7. Consequently, it can be assumed that the substance has a pH level less than 7.
