6) Which of the following would travel the farthest in column chromatography?

1 answer:

8 0

The answer would be C8H18, or octane. Column chromatography is a separation technique that works off of polarity. The stationary phase, in column chromatography, are non-modified silica gels. Silica gels are normally polar. This means the solvent that will elute first are non-polar molecules...then polar molecules. The polar silica gels have a stronger interaction with polar molecules like CH3OH, and therefore will lag the solvent. Additionally, as you decrease the carbons, in hydrocarbons, the molecule becomes more polar. This is not C6H6 isn't the answer and octane is.

How do ethics affect scientific research

Stells [14]

Ethical concerns affect scientific research when scientists or groups of scientists let their personal bias or political persuasions affect the research being conducted. Scientific ethics involve doing experimentation and analysis of data without bias no matter what the conclusions point to.

Answer:

The Photosynthesis process

Explanation:

Plants, algae, and some other organisms can transform the sunlight energy into chemical energy. The photosynthesis process occur thanks to the chloroplasts. The chloroplast is an organelle found in all green plants. Inside of the chloroplast you can find the thylakoids which are arranged in stacks named grana, they have membranes with chloropyll a photosynthetic pigment, also you can find the photosystems, they are functional and structural units of protein complexes. The thylakoids capture the light and allow the reactions to transform CO2. The set of reactions that occurs in the chloroplasts are known as the Calvin cycle.

The general equation of photosynthesis is:

$6 CO_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + Energy -> C_{6} H_{12} 12O_{6} + 6 O_{2}$

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Carbon Dioxide + water + Light -> Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen

After, this glucose is transformed into pyruvate, and it allowed the release of denosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. The ATP is an organic chemical that is requires for the cell to perform any process (any kind or work).
