In a thin layer chromatography experiment, a plate of length 9.3 cm was used and a horizontal line was made at 1.45 cm above the

bottom of the plate. After running the experiment (developing and drying), a spot was observed at 5.6 cm from the bottom of the plate, and the solvent front was 7.7 cm from the bottom of the plate. What is the Rf value

Answer: The R_f value is 0.664

Explanation:

Distance travelled by solvent front = (7.7-1.45)cm = 6.25 cm

Distance travelled by unknown = (5.6-1.45) cm = 4.15 cm

 The retention factor or the R_f value is defined as the ratio of distance traveled by the unknown to the distance traveled by the solvent front.

R_f=\frac{\text {distance travelled by unknown}}{\text {distance travelled by solvent}}

R_f=\frac{4.15}{6.25}=0.664

Thus the R_f value is 0.664

Which is characteristic of reliable experimental results?
storchak [24]

Answer:

B. The data were reproduced by other scientists using the same experimental methods.  

Explanation:

One of the features of reliable experimental results is their reproducibility — other scientists must be able to produce them.  

A. is wrong. An experiment that is designed to prove a hypothesis is biased.

C. is wrong. A conclusion based on a single experiment is suggestive but not conclusive. It takes a number of experiments to provide a strong statistical relation between the variables.

D. is wrong.  The data may support a conclusion that the they reached using logic and critical thinking, but there may still be a flaw in the thinking, which other scientists can point out.

10.0 g Cu, C Cu = 0.385 J/g°C 10.0 g Al, C Al = 0.903 J/g°C 10.0 g ethanol, Methanol = 2.42 J/g°C 10.0 g H2O, CH2O = 4.18 J/g°C
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Lead shows the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0 J of heat.

Explanation:

Q=mc\Delte T

Q = Energy gained or lost by the substance

m = mass of the substance

c = specific heat of the substance

ΔT = change in temperature

1) 10.0 g of copper

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the copper = c =  0.385 J/g°C

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}

=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.385J/g^oC}=25.97^oC

2) 10.0 g of aluminium

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the aluminium= c =  0.903 J/g°C

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}

=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.903 J/g^oC}=11.07^oC

3) 10.0 g of ethanol

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the ethanol= c =  2.42 J/g°C

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}

=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 2.42 J/g^oC}=4.13 ^oC

4) 10.0 g of water

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the water = c =  4.18J/g°C

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}

=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 4.18 J/g^oC}=2.39 ^oC

5) 10.0 g of lead

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the lead= c =  0.128 J/g°C

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}

=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.128 J/g^oC}=78.125^oC

Lead shows the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0 J of heat.
