Could you use naoh to separate aspirin and acetaminophen by acid base extraction

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ksivusya [100]3 years ago
4 0

if you are careful. aspirin is strongly acidic and tylenol is weakly acidic. if you split the difference between the two, you can deprotonate aspirin without deprotonating tylenol. more specifically, if you use NaOH to raise the pH of a solution to approximately 7 or 8, you could effectively deprotonate all of the aspirin, making it water soluble, while leaving the tylenol protonated and not very water soluble. if the pH goes above 10, you will deprotonate the tylenol and make them both water soluble. HOPE THIS HELPED :)

What is the law of conservation?
frez [133]

Answer:In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves over time. Exact conservation laws include conservation of energy, conservation of linear momentum, conservation of angular momentum, and conservation of electric charge. Wikipedia

How is impure copper refined by electrolysis
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

By giving electricity to copper compound solution.

Explanation:

Electrolysis is one of the major way of refined copper. The copper containing solution has two electrodes.i) positive electrodes called anode. ii) negative electrodes called cathode. When electricity is pass into the copper containing solution electrolysis process is starts and impure copper is formed in anode and pure copper is formed in cathode.

So, We can get pure copper in cathode through electrolysis.

I Hope this will be helpful for you.

A sample of gas contains 0.1800 mol of CO(g) and 0.1800 mol of NO(g) and occupies a volume of 23.2 L. The following reaction tak
baherus [9]

Answer:

The volume of the sample is 17.4L

Explanation:

The reaction that occurs requires the same amount of CO and NO. As the moles added of both reactants are the same you don't have any limiting reactant. The only thing we need is the reaction where 4 moles of gases (2mol CO + 2mol NO) produce 3 moles of gases (2mol CO2 + 1mol N2). The moles produced are:

0.1800mol + 0.1800mol reactants =

0.3600mol reactant * (3mol products / 4mol reactants) = 0.2700 moles products.

Using Avogadro's law (States the moles of a gas are directly proportional to its pressure under constant temperature and pressure) we can find the volume of the products:

V1n2 = V2n1

<em>Where V is volume and n moles of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas</em>

Replacing:

V1 = 23.2L

n2 = 0.2700 moles

V2 = ??

n1 = 0.3600 moles

23.2L*0.2700mol = V2*0.3600moles

17.4L = V2

<h3>The volume of the sample is 17.4L</h3>
