Interpretation:Whether the stationary phase used for the GLC analysis separates the bromohexanes on the basis of their relative boiling points or some other property should be ascertained and explained.
Concept introduction:Gas chromatography technique is based on principle of separation of analytes on the basis of the different interactions with the GLC stationary phase.
Each peak that appears in the recorded chromatogram attached at the end of GC detector represents for one distinct analyte or compound. The interaction between stationary phase and solvent mixtures determines the rate of appearances of analyte peaks.

- 1 For the representative alcohols, explain the solubility behavior in water as a function of branching in the molecular structure. 2 For phenol and ether, explain the solubility behavior in water as a function of the relative proportions of hydrophilic bonds and hydrophobic bands What LOONarrow_forwardI need a short answer of the question attached. I will be appriciate if you can solve it. Thank you!arrow_forwardYou need to recrystallize compound A. You are given several solvents to choose from. Briefly describe an experiment to determine what solvent is the best choice to recrystallize compound A.arrow_forward
- Considering the stoichiometry of the reaction (balance the equation!), what is the net oxidation state difference of the carbons in benzophenone going to benzopinacol? Remember that you have to calculate the oxidation state of the carbons in the product (benzopinacol) and subtract the oxidation state of the carbons in the reactants (benzophenones). The shortcut is to only calculate the oxidation states of the carbons that seem to have changed their bonding. Give a whole number answer with no units. hv OH Ph Ph OH Ph' Ph' Ph Ph OH Answer: -1arrow_forwardWrite TRUE if the underlined word/phrase makes the statement correct. Otherwise, write the correct WORD/PHRASE that will make the statement true Addition of KMnO4 to 2,3-dihydroxycyclohexanone results in a purple solution. 2-phenylhexanol will result in the formation of brown precipitate in neutral KMnO4 and clear solution in Lucas reagent. The-CHO group stabilizes the sigma complex formed in electrophilic aromatic substitution. In the aromatic bromination using elemental bromine, using a polarizing solvent will result to a faster decolorization of solution.arrow_forward5. From the 'H nmr spectrum of dibenzalacetone (Fig. 1) can you deduce what geometric isomer(s) is (are) formed?arrow_forward
- Assuming you are a chemist and you need to extract ethanolic acid in a benzene solution. Propose and briefly discuss how to extract the ethanolic acid in the benzene solution. Include the reactions involved in each step, if any.arrow_forwardExplain why eugenol readily dissolves in dichloromethane but salts don'tarrow_forwardInterpret the acidity of alcohols on the basis of ground-state polarization and stability of the alcoholate anion(indicate and give symbols for bond polarization)! Compare the relative acidity of ethanol and 2-fluoroethanol!arrow_forward
- Under what conditions can a high grade alcohol give a low permanganate time test? Explain.arrow_forwardPlease solve question 2 and explainarrow_forwardSomeone decided to try to recrystallize the molecule biphenyl using benzene as a solvent, but although they only had a 5% impurity, they recovered less than 10% of their total product! Assuming they didn’t lose any compound to a lab mishap, explain why their yield is likely to be so low.arrow_forward
