Answer:
Explanation:
The result will be affected.
The mass of KHP weighed out was used to calculate the moles of KHP weighed out (moles = mass/molar mass).
Not all the sample is actually KHP if the KHP is a little moist, so when mass was used to determine the moles of KHP, a higher number of moles than what is actually present would be obtained (because some of that mass was not KHP but it was assumed to be so. Therefore, there is actually a less present number of moles than the certain number that was thought of.
During the titration, NaOH reacts in a 1:1 ratio with KHP. So it was determined that there was the same number of moles of NaOH was the volume used as there were KHP in the mass that was weighed out. Since there was an overestimation in the moles of KHP, then there also would be an overestimation in the number of moles of NaOH.
Thus, NaOH will appear at a higher concentration than it actually is.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
<em>(1) It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent. </em>
Explanation:
The process of recrystallization is important to eliminate the impurities and to obtain better crystals of the solid. The solvent used to perform the recrystallization must have a high dissolution power of the substance to be recrystallized and a low dissolution power of the impurities. This is in order to eliminate most impurities. Furthermore, <em>It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent </em>because this should be easy to remove after the recrystallization and the crystal should form easily when the solution cools. Also, it is better to add the hot solvent to solubilize the crystals and keep the impurities insoluble, instead of adding the cold solvent and heating the solution. Additionally, the process of cooling the solution must be done slowly to obtain large and fewer crystals. A fast ice-cooling will form smaller crystals.
It is on a plate boundary so there are a lot of volcanoes in that area. All the volcanoes form a "ring" around the plate boundary.
