Answer:

The ether layer will contain aniline and toluene after the extraction.

Explanation:

A solvent extraction is a method to separate compounds or metal complexes, based on their relative solubilities in two different immiscible liquids, usually water and an organic solvent (Ether, in this case).

PhCO₂H (Benzoic acid) reacts with NaOH to form benzoate ion that is very soluble in water but poorly soluble in ether. That means PhCO₂H will be in the aqueous layer.

PhNH₂ (Aniline) is very soluble in organic solvents as ether but poorly soluble in water,

PhCH₃ (Toluene) is soluble in ether but insoluble in water.

That means<em> the ether layer will contain aniline and toluene after the extraction.</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Why is specific activity used as a measurement of enzyme purity, but the turnover number cannot be used for this purpose?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Specific activity of an enzyme is defined as a measure of the rate of reaction between enzyme and substrate.

In the study of enzyme kinetics, specific activity is particularly regarded to be the amount of substrate converted by the enzyme per milligram of protein per unit of time. It is thus a reliable measure of enzyme activity per milligram of total protein.

On the other hand, the turnover number is defined as a measure of the number of conversions achieved by a substrate molecule in one second at a particular active site depending on the specific enzyme concentration.

Since specific activityof the enzyme is the ratio of the enzyme activity to enzyme concentration, then specific activity can be used as a measurement of enzyme purity.

What would be the effect on the calculated ratio (mole of copper:mole of iron) if:
kotegsom [21]

Explanation:

Since the ratio is Cu/Fe, if some Fe were lost due to spillage, the Cu/Fe ratio would INCREASE because Fe would be lower.
