Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The information regarding the experiments of shaking water with hexane, chloroform and ethanol is given and the questions based on the densities of water, hexane, chloroform and ethanol have to be answered.

Concept introduction: The density of any substance is the division of the mass of that substance with the volume. It is denoted by ρ . The expression that shows the density of any substance is,

ρ Mass Volume

To determine: The answers corresponding to the given questions based on the densities of water, hexane, chloroform and ethanol if the information regarding the experiments of shaking water with hexane, chloroform and ethanol is given.

Explain the importance of using a thermometer in the simple distillation setup. Enumerate the characteristics of a substance for it to be separated from the heterogeneous mixture by steam distillation. How does steam facilitate the distillation of essential oils? Discuss some applications of simple distillation and steam distillation. Explain why you can use each method for the chosen application. What is the most dominant intermolecular forces of attraction that exist between: a. water and limonene, the major monoterpene component of lemon essential oil? b. water and constituent ions of sodium chloride? 6. Based on your answers in number 5, which pair (water-limonene or water-sodium chloride) exhibits a stronger attraction between their molecules/ions? 7. Describe what happens during the salting-out process in terms of the intermolecular forces of attraction involved as mentioned in your previous answers.
When water is shaken with hexane, the two liquids separate into two phases. Which compound is present in the top phase, and which is present in the bottom phase? When water is shaken with chloroform, a similar two-phase system results. Again, which compound is present in each phase? Explain the difference between the two experiments. What do you expect to happen when water is shaken with ethanol (CH3CH2OH)?
