Interpretation: The reason of performing a simple distillation needs to be determined from the given options.
Concept Introduction: Solvent extraction method is also called as liquid-liquid extraction. It is the method that is used to separate compounds on the basis of their relative solubility in two different immiscible solvents.
Here, the immiscible solvents cannot get mixed up together therefore they make two separate layers. In the extraction of a solute from one liquid, another immiscible solvent must be used. Usually water is used with certain organic solvent as organic solvent and water are immiscible into each other. At equilibrium the ratio of concentration of solute is constant in each layer that can be represented by partition coefficient or distribution coefficient. It is the ratio of the concentration of a substance in one medium (C1) to the concentration in a second medium (C2) at equilibrium.

- Explain and elaborate how the following purification techniques work: a. Sublimation b. Recrystallizationarrow_forward52. In an extraction using two-solvent system, methanol can be used to decrease the solubility of the non-polar component. This technique in reducing the solubility of organic solutes by saturating the mixture is called "Salting-out effect". O "Saturation Process" O "Distillation Process"arrow_forwardCREATE A SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM FOR THIS PROCEDURE: C. Preparation and storage of standard solutions 1. Use the weighed and transferred NaCl powder in procedure B. Dissolve it in about 10 mL distilled water. Use a stirring rod to gently stir the solution until it has been dissolved to an extent. Make sure you will not incur any noise while stirring. 2. When the NaCl powder is partially dissolved, transfer the resulting solution into a 100 mL volumetric flask. Use a stirring rod and funnel. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until no NaCl remains in the beaker and until you are almost at the mark of the volumetric flask. 4. Rinse the last portion of the solution from the stirring rod into the volumetric flask with a stream of water from the wash bottle. Rinse the funnel and remove it. Dilute the solution in the flask using a Pasteur pipette until the bottom of the meniscus is even with the graduation mark. 5. Put a stopper on the volumetric flask.

- A. Measure 0.400 g of KMNO. using a 50-mL beaker as the sample pan. Make sure to press the tare button before placing KMN04. Do not return any excess chemical in the reagent bottle. B. Dissolve the KMNO, with 20.0 mL of distilled water. Stir gently to avoid any loss. c. Transfer the solution to a 100-mL volumetric flask fitted with a small funnel. To avoid spilling, use a stirring rod in transferring the solution. To remove the last drop, place the stirring rod on the sprout of the beaker. Wash the remaining potassium permanganate in the beaker by adding more water to the beaker, stir and transfer it again in the volumetric flask following the same procedure. Repeat this washing until no trace of the color of potassium permanganate remains. Record the number of washings made. D. Rinse the stirring rod, allowing the rinse water to flow into the volumetric flask. Finally rinse the funnel and remove it from the flask. Use the wash bottle in rinsing. E. Dilute the solution in the…arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true when preparing solutions? a. Make sure that the solvent and reagents are contaminated. b. When diluting to the mark using a volumetric flask, the upper meniscus and mark should be at eye level. c. If amount added is over the mark, you cannot just take out the excess liquid and preparation must be repeated. d. After mixing the contents of the flask and the level of the meniscus seems lower than the mark, add more diluent.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT TRUE about simple distillation? a. The greater the difference in the boiling points of the components, the better the separation. b. The less volatile component boils first and travels along the condenser. c. It can be applied to mixtures with components boiling below 150°C. d. A sand bath can be used in place of a water bath to provide even heating of the flask.arrow_forward
- ………… is usually used only to separate liquids whose boiling points differ greatly or to separate liquids from involatile solids or oils. which option is correct?a. distillation b. simple distillation c. fractional distillationd. steam distillation e. vacuum distillationarrow_forwardA student is trying to perform a single solvent recrystallization of compound X using methanol. He observed that compound X is insoluble in methanol at room temperature and also insoluble at boiling temperature. Is methanol a good recrystallization solvent? A. Yes, you want to only dissolve the impurities and the sample should remain undissolved. B. No, you need a solvent which fully dissolves the sample only at room temperature so that it can crystallize in the ice bath. C. No, you need a solvent which dissolves the sample only at boiling temperature for selective crystallization upon cooling. D. Yes, you don't want the solvent to fully dissolve the sample at both temperatures so that it will crystallize in the cooling step.

Suppose you have a mixture of saturated aqueous sodium chloride (brine) and your 2-chloro-2-methylbutane product in a separatory funnel. Use densities to predict which phase will be the top layer in the funnel. a. 2-chloro-2-methylbutane (organic phase) b. saturated sodium chloride (aqueous phase) c. hard to predict since densities are both very close to 1.18 g/mL d. there would only be one phase since the substances are misciblearrow_forward
