Why do you start with the least polar solvent/solvent mixture and progress to increasing polar solvent/solvent mixtures when elu

ting the ferrocene compounds from the column rather than starting with more polar solvent system and progressing to less polar solvents

Explanation:

Generally in normal phase column, inside the column silica gel present is in normal phase and it strongly reacts or combine with more polar ferrocene compounds. Whereas, less polar ferrocene compounds weakly interact with this silica gel.  

Hence, on starting with least polar solvent or solvent-mixture the less polar ferrocene compounds will tend to elute first of all because these will weakly interact with the silica gel. Therefore, readily able to move away from the gel.

On increasing the polarity of solvent or solvent mixture, more polar ferrocene compounds will start to elute first. As a result, on changing the solvent polarity we can (from least to more polar) it is possible to get pure products.

But if we start with more polar solvent at first then almost all of the ferrocene compounds will elute leading to poor separation from the column due to which you will end up having a mixture of ferrocene compounds.

The energy pyramid below shows a possible
ExtremeBDS [4]

Energy transfer is not an efficient process.

Explanation:

There is less amount of energy in the top of the energy pyramid than at the bottom because energy transfer is not an efficient process. During the process of energy transferring, some amount is lost and some are converted to other forms of energy.

  • The sun is the ultimate source of energy for all life in the solar system.
  • When autotrophs takes this energy, they produce food from it.
  • They use light energy from the sun to produce chemical energy in food.
  • Even this conversion process waste precious amount of energy.
  • As one goes up the pyramid, more energy is lost during the process of converting from one form to another.

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 8.8 x 10^13 kg comet moving at a speed of 33.0 km/s. Round your answer to 2 significant digits
g100num [7]

Answer:

KE=4.79\times 10^{22}\ J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass ,m= 8.8 x 10¹³

Speed ,v= 33 km/s

We know that 1 km= 1000 m

v= 33 x 10³ m/s

As we know that kinetic energy given as

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Now by putting the values in the above equation

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 8.8\times 10^{13}\times 33000^2

KE=4.7916\times 10^{22}\ J

Therefore we can say that the kinetic energy will be

KE=4.79\times 10^{22}\ J

Empirical formula of c3h12o6
morpeh [17]

Answer:

CH_{4} O_{2}

Explanation:

The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of the elements in a compound to one another. To find the empirical formula given a molecular formula, divide all the subscripts by their greatest common factor.

3, 12, and 6 can all be divided by 3, which makes the empirical formula CH_{4} O_{2}

Which element will form covalent bonds with chlorine?
maxonik [38]

Hydrogen on sharing its one electron with chlorine results in formation of hydrogen chloride molecule and chlorine and hydrogen complete its octet by sharing one electron of each and thus forming a single covalent bond by sharing of two electrons.
