A naturally occurring oil co-distills with water to produce an oil/water distillate that is 20% oil by weight. If the molecular

weight of the oil 100 g/mol, what was the partial pressure of the oil during distillation assuming atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg

Gelneren [198K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

mole fraction of oil = mole of oil / mole of water + mole of oil

= mole of oil = mass of oil / molecular weight of oil

= 20 / 100 = .2

mole of water = 80 / 18

= 4.444

mole fraction of oil =  .2 / .2 + 4.444

= .2 / 4.644

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

= (.2 / 4.644 ) x 760 mm

= 32.73 mm Hg .

Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, is converted into cubic diamond through a process that may take a billion years or longer.
andriy [413]

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

The given statement is true.

As per an estimate, to convert graphite into diamond nearly 1 billion to 3.3 billion years of time is required.

Graphite converts into diamond when high-pressure is applied deep in the earth core.

A sample of 19 mg of 9-fluorenone is dissolved in 5 mL of diethyl ether. The resulting organic
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

15.70mg would remain

Explanation:

Partition coefficient is used to extract or purify a solute from a solvent selectively to avoid interference from other substances. For the problem, formula is:

Kp = Concentration 9-fluorenone in ether / Concentration of solute in H₂O

After the solute, 9-fluorenone, is extracted with water, the mass that remains in ether is:

(19mg - X)

<em>Where X is the mass that now is in the aqueous phase</em>

Replacing in Kp formula:

9.5 = (19mg - X) / 5mL / (X /10mL)

0.95X = 19mg - X / 5mL

4.75X = 19 - X

5.75X = 19

X = 19 / 5.75

X = 3.30mg

That means 9-fluorenone that remain in the ether layer is:

19mg - 3.30mg =

<h3>15.70mg would remain</h3>

What is responsible for moving the water to the ground?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Water applied to the surface of a relatively dry soil infiltrates quickly due to the affinity of the soil particles for water. As time passes and the soil becomes wet, the force of gravity becomes the dominant force causing water to move.

Detergent has a ph of about 10. is detergent acidic or basic? use figure 8-3 to answer this question.
harina [27]

Answer is: detergent is basic.

pH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity an aqueous solution.  

When pH is less than seven (pH<7), solution is acidic.  

When is equal seven (pH = 7), solution is neutral.  

When pH is greater than seven (pH > 7), like in this example, solution is basic.
