b. extraction with a solution of sodium bicarbonate, separating the layers, followed by drying and evaporating the organic layer.

c. drying and evaporating the organic layer.

d. extraction with a solution of sodium bicarbonate, separating the layers, add diethyl ether to the aqueous layer, extracting with a solution of hydrochloric acid, filtering and recrystallization the solid product.

Answer:

b. Extraction with a solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate, separating the layers, followed by drying and evaporating the organic layer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ether solution contains your product, benzaldehyde, and some starting material, benzoic acid, the purification steps are:

  1. Extract with a solution of NaHCO₃. The ether layer contains benzaldehyde, and the aqueous layer contains sodium benzoate.
  2. Separate the layers. Keep the ether layer.
  3. Dry the ether solution.
  4. Distill the ether (boiling point 35 °C) and purify the benzaldehyde (178 °C) by steam distillation.

a. is wrong. Extraction with HCl will not remove much of the benzoic acid.

c. is wrong. If you evaporate the organic layer, you will have a mixture of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid.

d. is wrong. If you work with the aqueous layer, you will end up with benzoic acid,

31.5 grams of an unknown substance is heated to 102.4 degrees Celsius and then placed into a calorimeter containing 103.5 grams
Alexxandr [17]
Heat gained in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:<span>

Heat = mC(T2-T1) 

When two objects are in contact, it should be that the heat lost is equal to what is gained by the other. From this, we can calculate things. We do as follows:

</span>Heat gained = Heat lost
mC(T2-T1) = - mC(T2-T1) 
31.5C (102.4 - 32.5) = 103.5(4.18)(32.5 - 24.5)
C = 1.57 J/C-g

Hope this helps.

CH, +<br> ,<br> 0, → _CO, +<br> Н,0<br> Balance chemical equation
Flura [38]

Answer:

2 CH2 + 3 O2 = 2 CO2 + 2 H2O

Explanation:

This is what I think that you meant by the question listed. When balancing a chemical equation, you want to make sure that there are equal amounts of each element on each side.

Originally, the equation's elements looked like this: 1 C on left & 1 C on right; 2 H on left & 2 H on right; 2 O on left and 3 O on right. Because these are not balanced, you need to add coefficients.

When adding coefficients, you need to make sure that all of the elements stay balanced, not just one that you are trying to fix. I know that some equations are really difficult to balance, and when that is the case, there are equation balancing websites that can help out.

However, what always helps me is making a chart and continuing to keep up with the changes I am making. It is a trial and error process.
