In separating mixtures is it an advantage or a disadvantage?

Chemistry

Answer:

Purpose: To become familiar with the techniques for separation of amixture of solids.

Explanation:

a mixture of pure substances. If you have a mixture of tennis ballsand marbles (not pure substances by the way), it would be easy toseparate the mixture. However, it is more difficult to separate asand (also not a pure substance) and salt mixture. Even with verygood tweezers and a magnifying glass, it would be extremelytedious. You could take advantage of the fact that salt dissolvesin water and sand does not. To separate iron powder from an ironand sand mixture you can take advantage of the magnetic propertiesof iron and separate the mixture.

To summarize a complete procedure for separating a mixture ofseveral substances, it is best to prepare a flow chart. A flowchartis a schematic representation of an algorithm or a stepwiseprocess, showing the steps as boxes of various kinds, and theirorder by connecting these with arrows. Flowcharts are used indesigning or documenting a process.

Describe an experiment to show that pressure acts in all directions in liquids.

boyakko [2]

We frequently observe kids playing with polythene bags filled with water that have little holes drilled into them at various locations so they can sprinkle water on other kids. Through this experiment, we can say that pressure acts in all directions in liquids.

<h3>Liquid's pressure</h3>

Since both liquids and gases may flow, they are both referred to as fluids. Fluids under rest pressure behave uniformly in all directions.

Weather forecasts can be made using barometers. They track the evolution of atmospheric pressure throughout time.

On weather forecast maps, pressure variations appear as an isobar pattern. Predictions are made using these changes in pressure, and they are fairly accurate when combined with wind observations.

<h3>Pressure and depth in liquids</h3>

As you go away from a liquid's surface, pressure rises. for instance: A bucket has three holes that are all the same size. Since there is more pressure at the bucket's bottom, the water spills out more forcefully. Dams are thicker at the bottom for this reason.

Give the structure corresponding to the name (s)−3−iodo−2−methylnonane.

Morgarella [4.7K]

The (s) in the chemical name of (s)-3-iodo-2-methylnonane indicates an S-configuration using the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system of stereochemical nomenclature. The S-configuration means that an "imaginary" rotation from the highest priority substituent group to the lowest priority substituent group of the chiral center moves counterclockwise (to the left), provided that the lowest priority group is oriented "towards the back" (symbolized by dashed lines).

The highest priority group (iodine in this case) is the one with the highest atomic number and the lowest priority (hydrogen in this case) is one with the lowest atomic number.

If the atoms directly beside the chiral center have the same atomic number (Carbon-2 and Carbon-4 in this case), the atoms next to them will be evaluated until a point of difference is found. Carbon-2 is connected to 2 other carbon atoms and 1 hydrogen atom, while Carbon-4 is connected to only 1 carbon atom and 2 hydrogen atoms. Thus, Carbon-2 has a higher priority, with the point of difference being the carbon atom of the methyl group attached to Carbon-2. Both Carbon-2 and Carbon-4 are connected to one carbon atom from the main nonane chain, but the other atoms connected to Carbon-4 are hydrogen atoms only. Carbon-2 has an extra carbon connected to it and carbon has a higher atomic number than hydrogen.

If there is no point of difference, the central atom is not chiral and cannot be named using the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system.

Thus, the structure of (s)-3-iodo-2-methylnonane is

The total mass of the __________________ and __________________ in an atom is the atomic mass.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

protons, neutrons

Explanation:

There are three subatomic particles in all atoms: protons, neutrons and electrons. Of these three, only protons and neutrons are considered to have enough mass to contribute to overall atomic mass of the element.
