Answer:

The Rf value of ibuprofen increases

Explanation:

TLC involves the elution of a solute using a mobile phase(solvent). The stationary phase is made of an adsorbent such as silica.

The extent of interaction between the solute and the mobile phase affects the Rf value. The greater the interaction between the solute and the solvent, the greater the Rf value.

On the other hand, the polarity of the solvent and the solute also affects the Rf value. If the solvent is changed from t-butyl methyl ether to acetone, the Rf value for ibuprofen increases because ibuprofen is polar and acetone is also polar hence there is greater interaction between the solvent and solute.

For the reaction 2 NO(g) + 2 H2(g) => N2(g) + 2 H2O(g) the following data were collected. What is the rate law for this react
harkovskaia [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The rate law expression for the given reaction is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

2NO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

Rate law expression for the reaction:

\text{Rate}=k[NO]^2[H_2]^2

Hence, the rate law expression for the given reaction is written above.

For question numbers 1 and 2, two statements are given - one labelled
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Explanation:

It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.

However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.

How can one tell how much of each reactant will be used in a reaction?
Ostrovityanka [42]
To Tell how much of each reactant will be used in a reaction, we need to find which reactant is the Limiting Reagent.
All the reactants will be consumed in equal amount as that of L.R.

Use the periodic table to find the molar mass of
Naddika [18.5K]

I can give you a clue of getting mass. if it is the atomic number is even multiply by 2 but if the atomic number is odd multiply by 2 and add 1

sodium atomic number = 11 so mass = 11*2 +1 = 23

oxygen. atomic number = 8 so mass = 8*2 = 16

carbon atomic number = 6 so mass = 6*2 = 12
