Atoms 'like' to have 8 valence electrones. sodium has one electron 'in excess' and chlorine 'lacks' in one. so they just exchange :) both are happy. then the ionic bond is formed because chlorine is now charged negative (additional electron) and sodium is charged positive (gave up one electrone) - the opposite charges cause electrostatic pull. many atoms, many bonds and thats how salt is built.

What purpose do each of the following play in the isolation and purification of ethyl 3- hydroxybutanoate?
Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

-Filter help — delete some big unreacted, undesirable species (norit is probably from what you are sorting through, its only carbon which cleans up things)

— extract with DCM because you are probably in an aqueous phase, and some butanoate is in it

- Anhydrous sodium absorbs excess of  water (dries the material)

-evaporation in the hood to clear the DCM and crystallize the product.

g Consider a uniport system where a carrier protein transports an uncharged substance A across a cell membrane. Suppose that at
Alborosie

Answer :  The ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside is, 296.2

Explanation :

The relation between the equilibrium constant and standard Gibbs free energy is:

\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln Q\\\\\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln (\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}})

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy  = -14.1 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mol

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

Q  = reaction quotient

[A]_{inside} = concentration inside the cell

[A]_{outside} = concentration outside the cell

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

-14.1\times 10^3J/mol =-(8.314J/K.mol)\times (298K)\times \ln (\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}})

\frac{[A]_{inside}}{[A]_{outside}}=296.2

Thus, the ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside is, 296.2

What name is given to substances that resist changes in ph?
nignag [31]
These are buffer systems (solutions of substances) with a steady concentration of hydrogenium ions. At addition to such solution of a small amount of acid or alkali does not change рН.
For example:
CH₃COOH + CH₃COONa    acetate buffer
KH₂PO₄ + K₂HPO₄  potassium phosphate buffer
