Why is steam distillation prefered over fractional distillation for the extraction of essencial oils?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
frez [133]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Because , the advantage of steam distillation over simple distillation is that the lower boiling point reduces decomposition of temperature-sensitive compounds. Steam distillation is useful for the purification of organic compounds, although vacuum distillation is more common

Using the van der waals equation, the pressure in a 22.4 l vessel containing 1.50 mol of chlorine gas at 0.00 °c is ________ atm
Lana71 [14]

Answer is: the pressure in a vessel is 1.48 atm.

V(Cl₂) = 22.4 L; pressure of chlorine gas.

n(Cl₂) = 1.50 mol; amount of chlorine gas.

T = 0.00°C = 273.15 K; temperature.

a = 6.49 L²·atm/mol²; the constant a provides a correction for the intermolecular forces.

b = 0.0562 L/mol; value is the volume of one mole of the chlorine gas.

R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K, universal gas constant.

Van de Waals equation: (P + an² / V²)(V - nb) = nRT.

(P +  6.49 L²·atm/mol² · (1.5 mol)² / (22.4 L)²) · (22.4 L - 1.5 mol·0.0562 L/mol) = 1.5 mol · 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K · 273.15 K.

(P +  6.49 L²·atm/mol² · (1.5 mol)² / (22.4 L)²) = (1.5 mol · 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K · 273.15 K) ÷ (22.4 L - 1.5 mol · 0.0562 L/mol).

P + 0.029 atm = 33.62 L·atm ÷ 22.31 L.

P = 1.507 atm - 0.029 atm.

P = 1.48 atm; the pressure.

What is 2n^2 rule ( of science)​
lozanna [386]

2n² rule:

This rule is used to determine number of electrons in particular shell.

n=1 means K shell

n=2 means L shell

n=3 means M shell

n=4means N shell

The first K shell can hold upto 2 electrons, L shell can hold up to 8, third M shell can hold up to 18and the fourth N shell can hold upto 32 electrons. This rule of arrangement of electrons according to the shell is known 2n2 rule where n means number of shell.

For example: There is one proton in the nucleus of hydrogen atom, which moves in K shell path. It has no neutron.

odium carbonate (Na2CO3Na2CO3) is used to neutralize the sulfuric acid spill. How many kilograms of sodium carbonate must be add
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer : The mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, 6.54\times 10^3kg

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of H_2SO_4.

\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2SO_4}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2SO_4}

Given:

Molar mass of H_2SO_4 = 98 g/mole

Mass of H_2SO_4 = 6.05\times 10^3kg=6.05\times 10^6g

Conversion used : (1 kg = 1000 g)

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

\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{6.05\times 10^6g}{98g/mol}=6.17\times 10^4mol

The moles of H_2SO_4 is, 6.17\times 10^4mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of Na_2CO_3

The balanced neutralization reaction is:

Na_2CO_3+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2CO_3

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of H_2SO_4 neutralizes 1 mole of Na_2CO_3

So, 6.17\times 10^4mol of H_2SO_4 neutralizes

Now we have to calculate the mass of Na_2CO_3

\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=\text{ Moles of }Na_2CO_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }Na_2CO_3

Molar mass of Na_2CO_3 = 106 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=(6.17\times 10^4mol)\times (106g/mole)=6.54\times 10^6g=6.54\times 10^3kg

Thus, the mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, 6.54\times 10^3kg
