Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Reason for preference of Pasteur filter-tip pipet over regular Pasteur pipet to transfer hot volatile solutions should be determined.

Concept introduction:Pasteur pipet consists of glass tube that is designed in such way that its one end forms tip through which liquid is allowed to enter with help of latex suction bulb. Pasteur filter-tip is modified version of Pasteur pipet; it is useful to transfer liquids with volatile components.

2. When performing the recrystallization of an impure solid, why is it advised to use the minimal amount of solvent possible? Group of answer choices To minimize the amount of pure solid lost due to its solubility. To minimize the cost of the recrystallization. To reduce the time needed to filter the pure solid from the solvent after recrystallization. To minimize the amount of hazardous materials used.
In a test tube, dissolve 10 drops of methanol in 3 ml. of water. Oxidize a copper wire spiral by passing it through a Bunsen burner. Plunge the red-hot wire into the alcohol solution several times, cooling the solution under the tap (faucet) so as not to evaporate too much of it. Next, add 1 drop of 0.5% resorcinol solution. Measure 2 ml. of concentrated sulfuric acid (CAUTION!) and pour this carefully down the sides of the test tube containing the mixture. Note the color of the zone intermediate between the acid and the solution.   RESULT:
4 litres of water obtained from a borewell in Vellore contains FeSO4 = 30.4 mg; CaSO4 = 13.6 mg; MgCl2 = 38 mg; Ca(HCO3)2 = 32.4 mg; Mg(HCO3)2 = 14.6 mg and NaCl = 11.7 mg. Calculate temporary, permanent and total hardness of the water sample in ppm. (Atomic masses of Fe = 56; Ca = 40; Mg = 24 and Na = 23)
