Answer:

The top layer is the Aqueous layer, and the benzoic acid is contained in the non-aqueous layer/oil phase.

Explanation:

A separating funnel is a very important piece of laboratory glassware that is used to separate the components of liquid-liquid mixtures  which are immiscible. This technique is used in the extraction of the components of mixtures.

The liquids separate into two phases. The separation is based on the differences in the liquids' densities, where the denser liquid settles below and the lower density liquid stays afloat. Liquids used for this kind of separation are usually different liquids, one is the aqueous layer and the other, a non-aqueous layer.

Partition coefficient or distribution coefficient is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of a compound in two immiscible solvents at equilibrium.

Organic solvents (except halogenated organic compounds) with densities greater than that of water i.e 1g/mL ( usually called the oil phase) settle at the bottom of the aqueous phase.

Benzoic acid. will settle at the bottom layer ( i.e the lower phase).

Calculate the mass of 25,000 molecules of nitrogen gas. (1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 molecules)
Ainat [17]

Hey there!

Molar mass N2 = 28.01 g/mol

Therefore:

28.01 g N2 -------------- 6.02*10²² molecules N2

( mass N2 ?? ) ----------- 25,000 molecules N2

mass N2 =  ( 25,000 * 28.01 ) /  ( 6.02*10²³ )

mass N2 = 700250 / 6.02*10²³

mass N2 = 1.163*10⁻¹⁸ g


Hope that helps!

a gas that exerts a pressure of 215 torr in a container with a volume of 51.0 mL will exert a pressure of ? torr when transferre
zhannawk [14.2K]
To calculate the new pressure, we can use Boyle’s law to relate these two scenarios (Boyle’s law is used because the temperature is assumed to remain constant). Boyle’s law is:

P1V1 = P2V2,

Where “P” is pressure and “V” is volume. The pressure and volume of the first scenario is 215 torr and 51 mL, respectively, and the second scenario has a volume of 18.5 L (18,500 mL) and the unknown pressure - let’s call that “x”. Plugging these into the equation:

(215 torr)(51 mL) =(“x” torr)(18,500 mL)
x = 0.593 torr

The final pressure exerted by the gas would be 0.593 torr.

Hope this helps!
