Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.
The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.
The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.
Answer:
Elements that belong to the <em>same </em><em>GROUP</em><em> </em>of the periodic table have the most similar chemical properties.
Explanation:
A GROUP in the periodic table is a column of elements with the same number of valence electrons. Since electrons are exchanged/shared during a chemical reaction, then elements with similar valence electrons, will react similarly. Thus elements belonging to the <em>same GROUP</em> are most similar in the way they react.
For example: Sodium and Lithium are group 1 elements while fluorine and chlorine are group 17 elements. In a reaction under normal conditions, Sodium and Lithium will both try to give up their single valence electron to form cations. In doing so they will react more similarly. On the other hand, Fluorine and Chlorine who are more inclined to accept a single electron to form cations react less like the group 1 elements and more like each other.
B. The heat travels to the pan and therefore heats the water
