A chemistry student wishes to extract 2.34 g of compound X from 15 mL of an aqueous mixture. She has two solvents available with the following characteristics: Solvent Solubility of X in 100 mL of solvent Hexane 36.92 Chloroform 28.33 Water 16.52 However, the student only has enough hexane (exactly 10 mL) for one extraction. On the other hand, she has enough chloroform (exactly 20 mL) to perform either 1 extraction with 20 mL or 2 sequential extractions with 10 mL each.

A solution contains equal amounts (in moles) of liquid components A and B. The vapor pressure of pure A is 100 mmHg and that of pure B is 200 mmHg. The experimentally measured vapor pressure of the solution is 180 mmHg. What are the relative strengths of the solute-solute, solute-solvent, and solvent-solvent interactions in this solution? The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are stronger than those between particles of A and those between particles of B. The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are weaker than those between particles of A and those between particles of B. The intermolecular forces between particles A and B are the same as those between particles of A and those between particles of B. Nothing can be concluded about the relative strengths of intermolecular forces from this observation.
