what are the similarities and differences between distillation, azeotropic distillation, extractive distillation and liquid-liqu

id extraction.
Chemistry

DedPeter [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

- Simple Distillation: its a separation method that can be used when the two or more liquids in the mix have at least 50 degrees of difference between their boiling points.

-Azeotropic distillation: is a technique to break an azeotrope (constant boiling point mixtures), that can't be separated by simple distillation, by adding another component to generate a new azeotrope (between one initial component and the new one added) with lower boiling point.

-Extractive distillation: is a process to separate mixtures with close boiling points by adding a miscible, high boiling or none volatile solvent to increase the relative volatility of the liquids in the mix, this increases the separation factor. It differences from the azeotropic method because it doesn't form an azeotrope.

-Liquid-liquid extraction: is a method to separate compounds based on their relative solubilities in two different immiscible liquids.

After describing all the methods we can conclude that all of them are methods to separate substances based on their physical properties, this is their similarity. The difference between this method is the property it uses to separate (solubility in the case of extraction and boiling point in the case of destinations), the cases in which they bare used (when the liquids difference in boiling points is bigger [simple] or close [attractive and azeotropic]) and the formation of azeotropes (present in azeotropic and absent in extractive).

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

In water, hydrogen bonds are best described as _____.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: Option D) covalent bonds between water molecules

In water, hydrogen bonds are best described as covalent bonds between water molecules

Explanation:

The hydrogen bonds between water molecules are covalent bonds because they are formed when oxygen attract the lone electron in hydrogen, thus resulting in the formation of a partially negative charge on the oxygen atom and a partially positive charge on two hydrogen atoms

Thus, the sharing of electrons between oxygen and hydrogen atoms is responsible for the covalent bonds between water molecules

When adding or subtracting deelmals, how many digits should the answer contain?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Depends, but in most cases, 2.

It's best to use as many digits as possible to keep it accurate.

Explanation:

This varies between teachers, as most schools go with 2 decimal places.

This is something that depends in your situation.

You technically want as many decimals as possible to keep it as accurate, but most people stick with 2.

I personally do 3, and commonly do 5 sometimes.

Lab Scenario D:
Cloud [144]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A reaction in which heat and light are produced is a combustion reaction. Combustion is said to have occurred when a substance is burnt in oxygen.

The balanced equation of the reaction is;

4Li(s) + O2(g) ------->2Li2O(s)

This reaction is exothermic because heat was produced. The reaction has a low activation energy as the metal easily burst into flames in oxygen. A catalyst is not needed in this reaction because it has a low activation energy.

According to the law of conservation of mass. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. What this means is that in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side must be the same as the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side.
