Assume that your compound recrystallizes equally well from benzyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol. Which solvent is the better choice for recrystallization? a. Benzyl alcohol because it is miscible with water. b. Isopropyl alcohol is better because it has a much lower boiling point and is easier evaporate off c. A mixed solvent - benzyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol d. It doesn't matter which one if they work equally in the recrystallization process.

Why is it important to know if a substance is a molecular compound or an ionic compound before predicting its effect on the boiling and freezing points of a solvent? Ionic compounds dissociate, resulting in more particles in solution, which affects the b.p. and f.p. Molecular compounds dissociate easier than ionic compounds, thereby having a greater effect on the b.p. and f.p. Ionic compounds have higher boiling points and lower freezing points than molecular compounds Ionic compounds have the opposite effect on freezing and boiling points than molecular compounds. Molecular compounds have greater intermolecular forces than ionic compounds Molecular compounds have a greater effect on the van't Hoff factor than ionic compounds

Please answer the question at the bottom. Fractional distillation Measure 55 mL of 40% ethanol Place 50 mL of ethanol in your distilling flask taking care that no liquid enters the side arm. Place the remaining 5 mL of ethanol in a test tube and set aside for procedure 2. Add a few marble or porcelain chips to the distilling flask to prevent bumping. Bumping is a term given to irregular boiling Assemble the rest of the apparatus for a simple distillation set-up. You may ask assistance from your instructor Cover the top of the distilling flask with a cork fitted with a thermometer. Make sure that the tip of the thermometer bulb is just below the side arm of the distillation flask Check all connections for tightness Heat the contents of the flask to boiling. Adjust the flame when the sample is already boiling. Make sure that it does not boil to dryness. Note the temperature of the first drop. Collect 60 drops of distillate per test tube. You will need 5 test tubes, thus five…
