Answer:

The top layer is the Aqueous layer, and the benzoic acid is contained in the non-aqueous layer/oil phase.

Explanation:

A separating funnel is a very important piece of laboratory glassware that is used to separate the components of liquid-liquid mixtures  which are immiscible. This technique is used in the extraction of the components of mixtures.

The liquids separate into two phases. The separation is based on the differences in the liquids' densities, where the denser liquid settles below and the lower density liquid stays afloat. Liquids used for this kind of separation are usually different liquids, one is the aqueous layer and the other, a non-aqueous layer.

Partition coefficient or distribution coefficient is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of a compound in two immiscible solvents at equilibrium.

Organic solvents (except halogenated organic compounds) with densities greater than that of water i.e 1g/mL ( usually called the oil phase) settle at the bottom of the aqueous phase.

Benzoic acid. will settle at the bottom layer ( i.e the lower phase).

How are energy and work related? A. Energy is the force needed to do work B. Work times energy is force C. Energy is the capacit
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

I believe the answer is A

Explanation:

Work and energy are related because when you work, you cause displacement in the object you are exerting upon. While this happens, you transfer energy between the systems. Both work and energy share the same SI unit, called the joule.

To get out the iron filings put everything in to a container and then put the magnet to the side to attract them. Pull them out of the container. Then, I don’t know how to separate the sand and salt. Maybe evaporate the salt? I joke you can figure it out. Best of luck! :)

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore

  1. salt is not chemically bonded to water
  2. the ratio of salt to water may vary
  3. salt and water retain their own chemical properties

<u>Explanation:</u>

Salt (sodium chloride) is formed from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water particles attracts the negative chloride ions of salt. The water particle effects to be charged negatively near the atom of oxygen and positively near the atom of hydrogen.

Since contrasts attract, the water molecules tend to join collectively like magnets. Water is called the universal solvent since it can solve more substances than any other liquid. The salt and water retain their unique chemical properties.

Identify the solute and solvent in a solution made from 15 mL of oxygen and 5 mL of helium.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Oxygen is solvent and Helium is solute.

Explanation:

Helium is a complety inert gas which do not react with other compounds whereas, oxygen can take part in chemical reaction with many compounds.

  • if we mix 15 mL of oxygen and 5mL of helium then the oxygen is the solvent and helium is solute.
  • In a mixture the compound with the greater volume is solvent and the compound with lwss volume is solute.
  • in this case, oxygen has greater volume than that of helium so oxygen is solute and helium is solvent here.
