After purification via extraction, any organic substance should be rigorously dried; otherwise, its further purification via recrystallization will often fail to achieve the desired result. In a typical purification of an organic unknown, a solution of crude product in an organic solvent (i.e. diethyl ether) is what will remain following extraction. Suggest a simple means to remove small quantities of water from this solution.

Need help with question 4 please
The boiling points for the compounds are 118 °C and 35 °C respectively. The solubility for both compounds is the same (8g/100g water). Explain this observation for (i) boiling point disparity; (ii) solubility similarity H-bonds form in diethyl ether; n-butyl alcohol forms H-bonds in water H-bonds form in n-butyl alcohol; diethyl ether forms H-bonds in water H-bonds in n-butyl alcohol; Both compounds form H-bonds in water O Both compounds form H-bonds; Both compounds form H-bonds in water
1. The substance to be analyzed – is white, highly soluble in water salt. Flame coloration test gives weakly-violet color. Interaction with concentrated sulfuric acid leads to evolving of reddish-brown gas with pungent odour. Mixing of salt water solution with chlorine water in presence of trichloromethane changes of color of organic layer to orange. What kind of substance is this? Explain you answer, provide chemical equations
Answer the following questions following a Solubility and recrystalization lab for organic chemisty. 1. In a solubility and recrystallization lab you are working with the following chemicals : solids (benzoic acid, acetanilide,naphthalene, and resorcinol) and three solvents (water, ethanol and petroleumether) discuss and rank the polarity of the solvents and the polarity of the compounds being investigated. 2. Briefly describe how a mixture of sand and benzoic acid (soluble in hotwater) could be separated to produce pure benzoic acid.

Kindly answer this question i & ii
Can yopu help me correcting this: NOTE:(I really did want you to state what IMFs exist between the acetic acid and water, and what happens to the number of them as the acid hydrocarbon chain grows, and that effect on solubility.)
Kindly answer question a, b, c
