Describe fractional distillation and explain what a fraction is?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kakasveta [241]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: In a fractional distillation, a mixture of liquids is boiled and the resulting vapors travel up a glass tube called a “fractionating column” and separate. The fractionating column is placed between the flask containing the mixture and the “Y” adaptor and improves the separation between the liquids being distilled.

Acetic acid is a weak acid, so its conjugate base (CH3COO-) is a strong base.

Nitric, sulfuric, and hydrochloric acids are all strong acid. Their conjugate bases (NO3-, SO4^2-, and Cl- are all weak bases.

A compound's molecular formula must always be different than the compound's empirical formula. TRUE FALSE
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Example: CH_4 has similar molecular formula and empirical formula as the elements are already present in simplest of the ratios.

C_2H_2 has molecular formula of C_2H_2 but CH as the empirical formula.
