What is Chromatography? |
|
Answer» Chromatography: Chromatography is an important separation technique used to separate constituent particles of a mixture of substances, to purify the compounds and check the purity of compounds. In this technique on a stationary phase (solid or a liquid) a mixture of substance is applied. The mixture of gas or the pure solvent is allowed to move slowly on the stationary phase. Due to which the components of the mixture start separating from one another. Chromatography is of two types namely Adsorption chromatography and Partition chromatography. |

|
| 5. |
What is Crystallization? |
|
Answer» Crystallization: The difference in the solubilities of an organic compound and that of the impurities present in it, in a suitable solvent, is the basis for this method of separation. A concentrated solution is prepared by dissolving the compound in a suitable solvent; the pure compound crystallizes out on cooling. The dissolved impurities are removed through filtration. The filtrate contains some amount of pure compound too. A compound containing impurities of comparable solubilities are purified by repeated crystallization. |

|
| 7. |
Under what conditions can the process of steam distillation is used? |

|
| 8. |
What is Distillation? Explain its types? |
|
Answer» Distillation: This method is mainly used for separating liquids with sufficient difference in their boiling points. It can also be used for separating volatile liquids from non-volatile impurities. There are two kinds of distillation methods widely used in the industry for purifying organic compounds. These are: (a) Fractional distillation: It is the process in which the components of a mixture are separated by heating the chemical mixture. Boiling point plays a vital role in fractional distillation. The component with lower boiling point vaporizes first and then the components with higher boiling points. In this way the components of (b) Steam distillation: In this method substances which are steam volatile and immiscible with water can be separated. It basically lowers the distillation temperature of the organic compounds which are immiscible with water having a high boiling point. |

Mrs. Sharma invests 15% of her monthly salary, i.e., Rs 4428 in Mutual funds. Later she invests 18% of her monthly salary on Pension plans; also she invests another 9% of her salary on Insurance policies. What is the total monthly amount invested by Mrs. Sharma ? (a) Rs 1,13,356.80 (b) Rs 12,398.40 (c) Rs 56, 678.40 (d) None of these |
|
Answer» (b) Rs 12,398.40 Let Mrs. Sharma’s monthly salary be Rs x. Then, 15% of x = Rs 4428 \(\Rightarrow\) x = Rs \(\frac{4428\times 100}{15}\) = Rs 29520 \(\therefore\) Total monthly amount invested by Mrs. Sharma = (15% + 18% + 9%) of Rs 29520 = 42% of Rs 29250 = \(\frac{42}{100}\) x 29250 = Rs 12398.40. |

0.39 g of hydrocarbon on combustion produces 1.32 g CO2 and 0.27 g H2O. Calculate the percentage of C and H in the hydrocarbon. |
|
Answer» A hydrocarbon is a compound which consists of carbon and hydrogen only. It undergoes combustion forming carbon dioxide and water as products. Given mass of hydrocarbon on combustion = 0.39 Given mass of CO2 = 1.32g Given mass of H2O = 0.27g Mass of carbon in 0.39g of CO2 = (12/44) x (1.32) = 0.36g CO2 Mass of hydrogen in 0.27 g of H2O= (2/18) x (0.27) = 0.03g H2O Percentage of C in hydrocarbon = (0.36/0.39) x (100) = 92.30% Percentage of H in hydrocarbon= (0.03/0.39) x (100) = 7.69% |
