Answer:
in some cases this is true a compound is a mixture of elements although it is actualy false the diffrence is actualy baced on what elements it is made of like sulfur Dioxide is when sulfur reacts with the contents of the air when burning and reacting but they arnt always diffrent most caces it is just what element you use.
Explanation:
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Chemical reaction is the process <span>that changes one set of chemicals into another set of chemicals. In a chemical reaction, old bonds are broken down forming new bonds therefore new </span>substances<span> with new properties.</span>
Answer:
IR provides structural information about a molecule. TLC and melting point analysis do not provide structural information.
Explanation:
IR gives information about the functional groups present in a molecule. The vibrational frequency of each functional group gives information about the structure of the entire molecule.
Structural features of a molecule are deduced by matching the vibrational frequencies of groups obtained from the IR spectroscopy with that of known functional groups in literature.
Melting point is a qualitative method that can only yield information about the identity of a compound and not its structure. Each compound has its unique melting point recorded in literature and any pure sample of the same compound must have the same sharp meting point.
Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a chromatography technique used to separate non-volatile mixtures. After separating the components of the mixture, it does not give any information regarding the identity or the structure of the components of the mixture.
Therefore, only IR yields structural information about a sample.
<span>The formation of a derivative being a necessary step in the experiment lies in the importance of the derived structure. Often the derived product confers to reaction pathways which uses less reactive starting materials and more easily proceeds to completion. This also allows us to take a small amount of sample. The derived product at times is a general compound allowing its easy analysis. Often we encounter a product but we find it difficult to analyse it in ways we want. Here lies the essence of forming a derivative which often are simpler compounds allowing easier analysis yet having similar functional groups and structural properties. Also sometimes we encounter problems when our desired product is unstable and forms stable degraded products. But if we somehow manage to synthesize a derivative it may be relatively stable and form no degradation products. It would be stable at least for a significant period of time making it easier to study its properties. The derived product also at times are synthesized using general reaction pathways facilitating a way of easier synthesis and helping it to correlate with other similar reaction pathways and products.So the above paragraph accounts for the need of derivatives. When we encounter problems similar to those mentioned above it becomes necessary for a researcher to form rather synthesize a derivative.</span>
