Which method of separation would be most appropriate for separating a mixture of water and alcohol?

To separate a mixture of alcohol and water, you can use a process known as fractional distillation. This technique relies on the fact that the compounds in the mixture have different boiling points.

Answer:C. distillation

Explanation:

Compounds having different boiling points when mixed can be separated by Fractional distillation.

Now when there is a mixture of water and alcohol, Upon heat, we would see that the alcohol will boil at a lower temperature than water for eg, ethanol will boil at 78.5 degrees Celsius, vaporizes and distills into the fractionating columns leaving the water which we know boils at 100 degrees Celsius.

CaO + H2O -> Ca(OH)2

yawa3891 [41]

The % yield of Ca(OH)₂ : 62.98%

<h3>Further eplanation </h3>

Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated

General formula:

Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%

An actual yield is the amount of product actually produced by the reaction. A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients

Reaction

CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

mass CaO= 4.2 g

mol CaO(MW=56,0774 g/mol) :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{4.2}{56,0774 g/mol}\\\\mol=0.075$

mol Ca(OH)₂ based on mol CaO

mol ratio CaO : Ca(OH)₂,= 1 : 1, so mol Ca(OH)₂ = 0.075

mass Ca(OH)₂(MW=74,093 g/mol) ⇒ theoretical

$\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=0.075\times 74,093 g/mol\\\\mass=5.557~g$

% yield :

$\tt =\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\=\dfrac{3.5}{5.557}\times 100\%\\\\=62.98\%$

How much time would it take to distribute one avagadro's number of wheat grains if 10^10 grains are A)1.9*10^2 years B)1.9*10^10

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

It takes 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$ years to distribute all the grains.

Explanation:

In one second, $10^{10}$ grains of wheat are distributed.

We are supposed to find the time it would take to Distribute Avogadro number of grains.

1 avogadro number = 6.022 $\times 10^{23}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 day = 86400 $\times 10^{10}$

= 8.64 $\times 10^{14}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 year= 8.64 $\times 10^{14} \times 365$

= 3.1536 $\times 10^{17}$

Time taken = $\frac{Number of grains to be distributed}{grains distributed in 1 year}$

= $\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23}}{3.1536\times 10^{17}}$

= 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$

How many moles in 30.0 grams of h3po4

jok3333 [9.3K]

Molar mass H₃PO₄ = 98.0 g/mol

1 mole ----- 98.0 g
? mole ------ 30.0 g

moles = 30.0 * 1 / 98.0

= 0.306 moles

hope this helps!
