Answer:

(A) Chloroform

Explanation:

When two <em>non-miscible liquids</em> are put in a separatory funnel, the denser liquid will be the bottom layer of the extraction.

An aqueous solution of benzoic acid will have a density somewhat higher than the density of the pure solvent, which is water (water density ≅ 1g/cm³).

  • Chloroform has a density of 1.49 g/cm³
  • Hexane has a density of 0.655 g/cm³
  • Octane has a density of 0.703 g/cm³
  • Diethyl ether has a density of 0.713 g/cm³

<em>Chloroform is denser than water and is the densest among the options</em>, so the correct answer is A).

What is the mass in grams of 5.00moles of CH4?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

1. 80g

2. 1.188mole

Explanation:

1. We'll begin by obtaining the molar mass of CH4. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CH4 = 12 + (4x1) = 12 + 4 = 16g/mol

Number of mole of CH4 from the question = 5 moles

Mass of CH4 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of CH4 = 5 x 16

Mass of CH4 = 80g

2. Mass of O2 from the question = 38g

Molar Mass of O2 = 16x2 = 32g/mol

Number of mole O2 =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of O2 = 38/32

Number of mole of O2 = 1.188mole

• Draw lewis dot structures for an atom of each of following elements:
marin [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lewis dot structures represent the symbol of an atom we're looking at and the number of valence electrons it has. This number is represented by the sum of dots around the symbol.

  • Potassium is in group 1A, this means it only has one valence electron, so we draw K with one dot in its Lewis diagram;
  • Argon is in group 8A, this means it has eight valence electrons, so we draw Ar with 8 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
  • Silicon is in group 4A, this means it has four valence electrons, so we draw Si with 4 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
  • Arsenic is in group 5A, this means it has five valence electrons, so we draw As with 5 dots around it in its Lewis diagram.

Those are represented in the image attached below:
