Describe how thin layer chromatography is used in the isolation and extraction of lipids​

Chemistry

BabaBlast [244]3 years ago

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.

An iron block of mass 18 kg is heated from 285 K to 318 K. If 267.3 kJ is required, what is the specific heat of iron? A. 450.00
valkas [14]

Answer:

  • <u>Option A. 450.00</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) m = 18 kg

b) T₁ = 285 K

c) T₂ = 318 K

d) Q = 267.3 kJ

e) S = ?

<u>2) Principles and equations</u>

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed to increase the temperature of certain amount (gram, kg, or moles, depending on the definition or units) of the substance in 1 ° C or 1 K.

The mathematical relation between the specific heat and the heat energy absorbed is:

  • Q = m × S × ΔT

Where,

  • Q is the heat absorbed,
  • S is the specific heat, and
  • ΔT is the temperature increase (T₂ - T₁)

<u>3) Solution:</u>

<u>a) Substitute the data into the equation:</u>

  • 267.3 kJ = 18 kg × S × (318 K - 285 K)

<u>b) Solve for S and compute:</u>

  • S = 267.3 kJ / (18 kg × 33 K) = 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K)

The options have not units, but I notice that the first answer is 1,000 times the answer I obtained, so I will make a conversion of units.

<u>c) Convert to J /( kg . k):</u>

  • 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K) × 1,000 J / kJ = 450 J / (kg . K)

Now we can see that the option A is is the answer, assuming the units.

Answer:

Sulfur would gain electrons

Explanation:

Atoms want to have a complete out valence shell and because sulfur only needs 2 more electrons to complete the outer shell it would take 2 more.

Decide whether a chemical reaction happens in either of the following situations. If a reaction does happen, write the chemical
sineoko [7]

Explanation:

A strip of solid palladium metal is put into a beaker of nicl2

Palladium (Pd) + Nickel Chloride (NiCl2)

To answer this question properly you must refer to the reactivity series.

The activity series is a chart of metals listed in order of declining relative reactivity. The top metals are more reactive than the metals on the bottom.

In this series, Nickel is higher than Palladium. This means that if a Palladium strip is placed into a solution of a Ni salt, then a reaction will not take place, nothing would happen.

Because Pd is lower than Ni in the reactivity series.

There is no reaction so no equation.
