Answer:

A. The top layer will be diethyl ether, and the top layer will be yellow.

Explanation:

The purpose of the addition of the saturated aqueous solution of polar solvents like sodium chloride in the liquid-liquid extraction techniques is to remove as well as separate any kind of water which may be dissolved in the ether. Water and sodium chloride are both polar and thus, they forms the bottom layer and only ether forms the top layer. The compound being organic and is colored is in the top layer with the ether.

Hence, answer - A. The top layer will be diethyl ether, and the top layer will be yellow.

How much aluminum oxide are produced when 46.5g of Al react with 165.37g of MnO?
solong [7]

Aluminum oxide produced : = 79.152 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

46.5g of Al

165.37g of MnO

Required

Aluminum oxide produced

Solution

Reaction

2 Al (s) + 3 MnO (s) → 3 Mn (s) + Al₂O₃ (s)

  • mol Al(Ar = 27 g/mol) :

mol = mass : Ar

mol = 46.5 : 27

mol = 1.722

  • mol MnO(Ar=71 g/mol) :

mol = 165.37 : 71

mol = 2.329

mol : coefficient ratio Al : MnO = 1.722/2 : 2.329/3 = 0.861 : 0.776

MnO as a limiting reactant(smaller ratio)

So mol Al₂O₃ based on MnO as a limiting reactant

From equation , mol Al₂O₃ :

= 1/3 x mol MnO

= 1/3 x 2.329

= 0.776

Mass Al₂O₃ (MW=102 g/mol) :

= 0.776 x 102

= 79.152 g

What is ΔG° at 298 K for the following equilibrium? Ag+(aq) + 2NH3(aq) Ag(NH3)2+(aq); Kf = 1.7 × 107 at 298 K a. 41 kJ b. 0 c. –
jekas [21]

Answer:

ΔG° = 41.248 KJ/mol (298 K); the correct answer is a) 41 KJ

Explanation:

Ag+(aq)  +  2NH3(aq)  ↔ Ag(NH3)2+(aq)

⇒ Kf = 1.7 E7; T =298K  

⇒ ΔG° = - RT Ln Kf.....for aqueous solutions

∴ R = 8.314 J/mol.K

⇒ ΔG° = - ( 8.314 J/mol.K ) * ( 278 K ) ln ( 1.7 E7 )

⇒ ΔG° = 41248.41 J/mol * ( KJ / 1000J )

⇒ ΔG° = 41.248 KJ/mol

Why metals are denser than non - metals ? ...?
Solnce55 [7]
Because their molecules are more tightly packed.                       Massdensity = ----------                     Volume
So more densely packed molecules means more mass per unit volume.  Hence metals are denser than non-metals.
