The liquid-liquid extraction is the classical technique in chemistry to isolate a target component from a mixture. Organic Solvent is the usual solvent being used along with water. TRUE or FALSE
Please answer all 5 questions (it could be short answers). 5-1. What is the main barrier to separating liquid mixtures of less than 500 mL by distillation? 5-2. A sample mixture of ethyl benzoate (bp 212 Celsius) and dodecane (bp 216.2 Celsius) is injected on two GC columns. Column A has DC710 silicone oil as the stationary phase, and column B uses polyethylene glycol as the stationary phase. Which substance would be certain to elute first from column A and would the same material be expected to elute first from column B? Which column, A or B, would be expected to give the better separation of these two substances? 5-3. Question 5-2 refers to separating a mixture of two high boiling liquids by gas chromatography. These materials have similar boiling points. List several GC variables and conditions that would make it easier to separate thesesubstances by gas chromatography 5-4. Capillary GC columns have better resolution than packed columns even though the enormous surface area…
Why is the Refractive Index of hexane closer to the refractive index of heptane in both simple and fractional distillation?
1a. Use the given table to construct a temperature-composition diagram for cyclohexane Toluene mixture. Based on the plot, what is the composition of the distillate obtained by Simple distillation 20 mole percent cyclohexene and 80 mole percent toluene? Show your Work on the plot. 1b. Estimate the composition of the distillate of 20 mole percent of cyclohexane if the Distillation column had three theoretical plates.
List and describe two methods that can used to improve the separation of a liquid mixture by fractional distillation
6.0 mL of cyclohexanol, 8 mL of 85% phosphoric acid, and 10 drops of sulfuric acid are added to a 50-mL round-bottom flask with boiling chips, and the mixture is distilled into an ice-cooled receiver. The distillate is in the form of a colorless bi-phasic mixture. The cyclohexene upper layer is removed from the water layer, and dried over anhydrous calcium chloride. Isolated is cyclohexene as a clear and colorless foul-smelling liquid. Weighing data is given below. Gross mass: 51.24 g Tare mass: 48.04 g Product mass: 3.2g Question: Calculate the theoretical mass of the cyclohexene product, bearing in mind that the cyclohexanol starting material was measured by volume, not by mass (so you must use the density of cyclohexanol to convert milliliters to grams, before calculating the number of moles). Calculate the percent yield of cyclohexene obtained.
10g coffee 4g sodium carbonate 40m dichloromethane 160ml distilled water coffee filter What are the principles behind caffeine being extracted from coffee using the above items? 1st sodium carbonate mixed with coffee then brought to a boil for 20min then solution/grinds are filtered. Then solution is added to a separatory funnel with 15ml of dichloromethane and two layers are observed so the bottom layer with DCM contains the caffeine, then this layer is collected in a beaker and dried out using molecular seeds. Then the solvent is brought to a boil with crude caffeine remaining and recystallized using 95% ethanol and brought to a boil again. Then the contents are vaccum filtered and allowed to dry resulting in 30mg caffeine.
Why the Refractive Index of hexane and heptane from simple distillation closer to the refractive index of hexane and heptane from fractional distillation?
A tea bag containing 15 grams of tea leaves with 0.7% of caffeine was used in solid-liquid extraction with 200ml of distilled water followed by liquid-liquid extraction using DCM. If 50.0mg of caffeine requires 10 ml of water and 3.0ml of DCM to be dissolved, how much caffeine can be extracted using 70.0ml of DCM? a. 4.8 x 10^-2 b. 5.7 x 10^-2 c. 3.8 x 10^-3 d. 5.8 x 10^-3
