Answer:
I believe your answer is B) make a prediction
Explanation:
Answer:
Option A. This step is to remove water from the ether layer.
Explanation:
When the goal of an experiment is to conduct a reaction and isolate the product, it is referred to as work-up. The work-up refers to method aimed at purifying the material and most commonly occur in a separatory funnel. Solutions are added to the funnel to either extract or wash the mixture with the goal of isolating the product from excess reagents, catalysts, solvent, side product that may arise from side reactions.
Common washes include: Water, Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Carbonate, saturated sodium chloride (brine).
When an organic layer ( e.g. diethyl ether, ethyl acetate) is washed with brine, the purpose of the wash is to REMOVE LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER that may be dissolved in the organic layer.
Brine works to remove water from an organic layer because it is highly concentrated (since Sodium Chloride is highly water soluble. Therefore, the most likely reason for washing a reaction product mixture containing hydrocarbons in diethyl ether with with brine solution in a separatory funnel is to remove the water from the ether layer.
<h2>What are fossils?</h2>
Fossils are the remains or impression of plants or animal embedded in rock. They are the remains of dead animals and plants that once lived on this earth in the remote past. Fossils are formed when dead organisms are not completely decomposed.
<h3>2.
Fossil record</h3>
The fossil records are referred to as the totality of fossils. It helps paleontologists, archaeologists, and geologists place important events and species in the appropriate geologic era. Fossil records can be used to show that organisms changed to meet new conditions
<h3>3. The grand staircase</h3>
The Grand Staircase is referred to as a sequence of sedimentary rock layers that stretch south for 100 miles from Bryce Canyon National Park through Zion National Park and into the Grand Canyon.
The different environmental conditions the Grand Staircase exposed to over this +1 Billion year is heat
4. Based on the Law of Superposition which states that in undisturbed rock sequences the bottom layers are older than the top layers.
