What is the formula for the theoretical extraction efficiency of a liquid-liquid extraction, in terms of the fraction of the ana

lyte left in the original phase? If nobody has ever made you calculate this before, the Chemistry Libretexts page on liquid-liquid extractions will be helpful.

Answer:

q_{aq}=\frac{V_{aq}}{KV_{org}+V_{aq}}

Explanation:

Hello,

The requested formula is:

q_{aq}=\frac{V_{aq}}{KV_{org}+V_{aq}}

Whereas q_{aq} is the cumulative fraction remaining after the extraction, K the distribution coefficient and the V the volume for the aqueous and organic phases

It is suitable when we assume that the analyte is originally at the aqueous phase and the aforesaid fraction stands for the efficiency as well (https://chem.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Analytical_Chemistry/Book%3A_Analytical_Chemistry_2.0_(Harvey)/07%3A_Collecting_and_Preparing_Samples/7.7%3A_Liquid%E2%80%93Liquid_Extractions)

Best regards.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]
First, we need to be aware that our blood is also  a form of liquid.
So, when the astronaut is placed in within the environment that has decreased pressure,  the temperature inside the astronaut's body will definitely increase but it won't cause the boiling effect like in water (it won't even break the arteries). But it could endanger the astronaut's life because it makes the blood unable to circulate properly due to unstable blood pressure

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 81.0 g of water from its melting point to its boiling point?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Specific heat of water = 33.89 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

mass of water = 81 gram

Initial temperature = 0°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of water = 4.184

Find:

Required heat Q

Computation:

Q = Mass x Specific heat of water x (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

Q = (81)(4.184)(100-0)

Q = 33,890.4

Specific heat of water = 33.89 KJ

Explain why BH3 is trigonal planar and NH3 is trigonal pyramidal.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:o It is important to realise that mixing will be small unless there are electrons in the 4a1 LUMO, this is why NH3 is pyramidal while BH3 is planar! ... This mixing is very strong and stabilises the 3a1 MO substantially and hence NH3 is trigonal pyramidal and not planar.

This is a question for all the girls if ur bf ignore u what do u do
Gemiola [76]
If your boyfriend is ignoring you, you should just ask him about it because if you guys don’t communicate then discussing things about your relationship will be difficult

I hope this helps
