After recrystallization, the final weight of biphenyl is found to be 0.02 g. Assume that all steps were carried out correctly, n

o spillages occurred, and the student lost minimal solid on the glassware or in transfers. Why is the recovery so low?

Explanation:

From the source, The student recrystallized biphenyl by using benzene. Biphenyl is non polar and so is benzene. Biphenyl is very soluble in benzene at low as well as high temperature. Thus, it do not recrystallize as like dissolves like and gives a very poor yield.

The good recovery of the product is dependent on compound having high solubility at the high temperatures and having low solubility at the low temperatures.

Which of the following compounds would be most effective in lowering the melting point of ice on roads? a) CaCl2 b) NaCl C) K3PO
Mrac [35]
I'm not 100% sure on this, but I would go with C) NaCl. 
NaCl is a salt, and that is used to melt the ice on the roads. Hope this helps!

A species has the following MO configuration: (σ1s)2(σ1s*)2(σ2s)2(σ2s*)2(σ2p)2(π2p)2. This substance is:_______.
Goshia [24]

Answer :  The correct option is, (a) paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons.

Explanation :

According to the molecular orbital theory, the general molecular orbital configuration will be,

(\sigma_{1s}),(\sigma_{1s}^*),(\sigma_{2s}),(\sigma_{2s}^*),(\sigma_{2p_z}),[(\pi_{2p_x})=(\pi_{2p_y})],[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)

As there are 14 electrons present in the given configuration.

The molecular orbital configuration of molecule will be,

(\sigma_{1s})^2,(\sigma_{1s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2s})^2,(\sigma_{2s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2p_z})^2,[(\pi_{2p_x})^1=(\pi_{2p_y})^1],[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)^0=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)^0],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)^0

The number of unpaired electron in the given configuration is, 2. So, this is paramagnetic. That means, more the number of unpaired electrons, more paramagnetic.

Hence, the correct option is, (a) paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons.

The chemical equation below shows the burning of magnesium (Mg) with oxygen (O2) to form magnesium oxide (MgO). 2Mg + O2 Right a
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

64.0

Explanation:

2Mg+O2 ---> 2MgO

use dimentional analysis to find the amount of moles of O2 needed first

4.00molMg x 1.00mol O2/ 2.00 mol Mg=. 2.00 mol O2

using the coefficients you can see the mole ratio for O2:Mg the mole ratio is 1:2 which is why there is 1 mole on the top for 2 moles on the bottom. The Mg would cancel and multiply 4 by 1 then divide by 2, or multipy 4 by 1/2

Now that you have the moles of O2 you use the molar mass to find the grams in 2 moles of O2

2.00 mol O2 x 32.0g/1.00 mol = 64.0 g

multiply 2 by 32

A solution contains 90 milliequivalents of HC1 in 450ml. What is its normality?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Normality N = 0.2 N

Explanation:

Normality is the number of gram of equivalent of solute divided of volume of solution, where the number of gram of equivalent of solute is weight of the solute divided by the equivalent weight.

Normality is represented by N.

Mathematically, we have :

\mathbf{Normality \ N = \dfrac{Number \ of \ gram \of \ equivalent\  of\  solute }{volume \ of \ solution}}

Given that:

number of gram of equivalent of solute = 90 milliequivalents 90 × 10⁻³ equivalent

volume of solution (HCl) = 450 mL 450 × 10⁻³ L

\mathbf{Normality \ N = \dfrac{90 \times 10^{-3}}{450 \times 10^{-3}}}

Normality N = 0.2 N
