Compound A has a partition coefficient (K) of 7 when comparing its solubility in CH2Cl2 to water ( K=11, [solubility of A in g/m

l in CH2Cl2] divided by [solubility of A in g/ml in H2O]). If we take 17.0 g of A and partition it thoroughly between 150 ml of CH2Cl2 and 100 ml of water, what is the equation which will tell us how much of A (which is represented by x) is in the water layer after this partitioning ?

Answer:

The equation which will tell us how much of A that is mis inmthe water layer after partitioning is: 7 = (17 - x) g / 150 mL ÷ x g /100 mL

Explanation:

A partition coefficient is the ratio of the concentration of a substance in one solvent phase to the concentration in a second solvent phase when the two concentrations are at equilibrium. Usually the two phases are an organic phase and an aqueous phase. Thus, the partition coefficient K, of a compound is the ratio of the compound's concentration in the organic layer compared to the aqueous layer.

K = C₁/C₂ at equilibrium

In the compound A given, CH₂Cl₂ is the organic phase while water is the aqueous phase

Amount of A that is partitioned in between dichloromethane, CH₂Cl₂ and water, H₂O is 17.0 g

Let the amount of A that is dissolved in water be x g

Solubility of A in water given in g/mL = (x / 100) g/ml

Amount of A dissolved in dichloromethane, CH₂Cl₂ = (17 - x) g

Solubility of A in dichloromethane, CH₂Cl₂ given in g/mL = (17 - x/150) g/mL

Since the partition coefficient, K of compound A when comparing its solubility in CH₂Cl₂ to water is 7, that is;

K = [solubility of A in g/ml in CH₂Cl₂] / [solubility of A in g/ml in H2O] = 7

The equation for the amount of A in the water layer is given as follows:

7 = (17 - x) g / 150 mL ÷ x g /100 mL

Solving for x

7 = (17 -x) × 100 / 150x

7 × 150x = (17 - x) × 100

1050x = 1700 - 100x

1150x = 1700

x = 1700/1150

x = 1.48 g

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

G]ns^2np^5 group 17 (p-block)

G]ns^2np^2 group 14 (p-block)

G]ns^2mf^14 group 16 (f-block)

Explanation:

The outermost electronic configuration of an element shows the group to which it belongs in the periodic table as shown above in the answer. In addition, to that, we can be able to know from its electronic configuration, whether the element is a metal or not.

For instance;

G]ns^2mf^14 is a rare earth metal, G]ns^2np^2 group 14 is a metalloid while G]ns^2np^5 group 17 is a nonmetal.

Hydrogen atom and chlorine atom makes hydrogen chloride molecules.

It is the lowest point in the substance and possesses chemical elements. Atoms don't exist on their own; instead, they combine to create ions and molecules, which combine to create the substances that we can see, feel, and touch.

One or more atoms joined together by covalent (chemical) connections make up molecules. Atoms can be imagined as circles with a central nucleus (consisting of protons and neutrons) and one or more concentric circles surrounding it that represent the "shells" or "levels" in which the electrons surrounding the atom's nucleus are located as well as markings that distinguish the electron. every level
