BabaBlast [244]3 years ago
4 0

Thin layer chromatography(TLC) works with the principle of separation through adsorption.

It is used in the isolation and extraction of lipids through the following steps:

  • apply the lipid samples spots in the bottom of the plate.
  • also apply sample solution to the marked spot
  • pour the mobile phase into the TLC chamber and use a moist filter paper to cover it. this is done to maintain equal humidity.
  • then place the plate in the TLC chamber and close it with a lid.
  • the plate is immersed into the solvent (mobile phase) for its development. this is done, keeping in mind that the sample spot should be above the solvent.
  • once the sample spots are developed, they are removed and dried.
  • this is later viewed using the UV light chamber to see the isolation of the lipid sample.

What ion (cation or anion and charge) do the halogen group (17) form to fulfill the octet
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

option B= anion (-1)

Explanation:

The halogens are present in the P- block of periodic table. There are thirty five elements present in p-block. The halogens are present in group seventeen. Their are seven electrons are present in valance sheet. All halogens require one electron to complete the octet and form anion carry -1 charge.

Halogens include following elements:

Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.

The halogens mostly form single bond with the other elements by gaining one electron and -1 charge. These are most reactive non-metals.

Properties of some halogen elements:

Fluorine:

1. It is yellow in color.

2. It is flammable gas.

3. It is highly corrosive.

4. Fluorine has pungent smell.

5. It's reactions with all other elements are vigorous except neon, oxygen, krypton and helium.  

Chlorine:

1. It is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. Its melting point is 172.2 K.

3. Its boiling point is 238.6 K.

4. It is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. It is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

Iodine:

1. It is present in solid form.

2. It is crystalline in nature.

3. It is very corrosive and has pungent odor.

4. It can not react with oxygen and nitrogen.
