Predict the order of elution if you were to attempt to separate using column chromatography on silica gel and with a gradient el

uent system starting with petroleum ether and slowly increasing MTBE % over time.

Minchanka [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Follows this order: B=> A => C.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check the attachment for the diagram of compounds A, B and C.

Elution is a very important concept in chromatography separation techniques. It deals with the use of eluent in the removal of an adsobate from an adsorbent. The principle behind Elution is just about how polar the solvent is.

So, in this question Compound B will go with the Elution first because of its polarity. Compound B has lesser polarity as compared to Compounds A and B.

Compound A will then elutes second because of its polarity too as resonance increases its polarity.

Last, compound C elutes because it has the highest polarity which is caused by electronegative atoms.

What are the forces that hold sodium and chloride ions together?
Phantasy [73]
Sodium is a metal, Chloride is a non-metal.

Right off the bat, you know that in order for both of these atoms to achieve a full valence shell that the metal has to lose electrons, and the non-metal has to gain them.

Therefore, you have the transfer of electrons in this bond in order to form ions.
Na+ and Cl-. This transfer of electrons in a bond is called an {{ Ionic Bond}}

46.6 grams of mercury II sulfate (HgSO4) reacts with an excess of sodium Chloride (NaCl). How many grams of mercury II chloride
slega [8]

Answer:

m_{HgCl_2}=42.7gHgCl_2

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

HgSO_4+2NaCl\rightarrow HgCl_2+Na_2SO_4

In such a way, the mercury II sulfate (molar mass 296.65g/mol) is in a 1:1 molar ratio with the mercury II chloride (molar mass 271.52g/mol), for that reason the stoichiometry to find mass in grams of mercury II chloride turns out:

m_{HgCl_2}=46.6gHgSO_4*\frac{1molHgSO_4}{296.65 gHgSO_4}*\frac{1molHgCl_2}{1molHgSO_4} *\frac{271.52gHgCl_2}{1molHgCl_2} \\\\m_{HgCl_2}=42.7gHgCl_2

Best regards.

How do anion formation and valence electrons relate?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A cation is formed when a metal ion loses a valence electron while an anion is formed when a non-metal gains a valence electron. They both achieve a more stable electronic configuration through this exchange.

A cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of a corn plant. Based on this observation
Alik [6]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A). synthesizes more sugar

B). has a higher chromosome count

C). produces fewer proteins

D). uses less carbon dioxide

The answer is A

Explanation:

The chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of photosynthetic organisms. It is the site where photosynthesis, which is the production of food (sugars) from sunlight energy, occurs.

According to this question, a cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of the same corn plant. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that the LEAF CELLS WILL SYNTHESIZE MORE SUGARS THAN THE STEM CELL because the more the chloroplast, the higher the photosynthetic rate and subsequently the higher the amount of sugar produced.
