Question
Chapter 3.2, Problem 34E
a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Purpose of decolorizing carbon to poison victims should be determined.
Concept introduction:Decolorizing carbon is activated charcoal used for removal of colored impurities in process of recrystallization. It is commercially found as Darco or Norite and exists in finely divided powdered state with large surface area.
b)
