Interpretation:Reason for no direct connection of filter flask to water aspirator pump in vacuum filtration should be determined.
Concept introduction:Vacuum filtration is process that is used to separate solids from solvents after recrystallization. Recrystallization is technique that is used for purification of organic compounds. This process includes dissolution of solid in specific solvent at high temperature and then crystals are made again by process of cooling. Temperature of crystals is decreased to allow impurities to remain in solution only.

- When would it be preferable to use a plastic volumetric flask instead of a glass flask?arrow_forwardIndicate which of the two filtration techniques, gravity ( G ) or vacuum ( V ), is suitable for each of the following operations. a) Hot filtration b) Removal of decolourising carbon c) Isolation of recrystallized solute from solution.arrow_forwardBRIEFLY explain why steam distillation can be used to purify or isolate temperature-sensitive materials.arrow_forward
- For each of the following statements, answer TRUE or FALSE and explain your answer briefly. Corrections for water density, thermal expansion, and buoyancy difference are always required for the calibration of volumetric flask.arrow_forward(1) A plastic piece was being analyzed by flotation methods. The piece of plastic was suspended in a solution which had an equivalent density. 8.26 mL of this solution were placed into a measuring device that had an empty mass of 43.33 g. The new mass of the device and solution was 52.17 g. Use this information and determine the density of the plastic (i.e., same as the density of solution!). (note, i.e. stands for "id est" in Latin. It is identical to "that is" in English) thatarrow_forwardThe following are used to remove bubbles in the mobile phase, except: Ultraviolet Vacuum Pumps Vacuum Filtration Sparge with inert gas Elevated Pumpsarrow_forward
- how to use Gas Chromatography in Cosmetics Provide a procedure on how to do this example that you provided. Explain the procedure and what data would you gather?arrow_forward5. In preparation for the analyses of other types of samples that may reach your laboratory, the supervisor tasked you to research different extraction procedures for the analyses of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other related compounds so that you can purchase different extraction instruments. How will you convince him to buy a Supercritical Fluid Extraction Instrument? Carrow_forwardWhich of the three methods, (Use of Separatory Funnel, Decantation or Use of Pasteur Pipette) do you believe is most suitable for transferring large volumes of liquid mixtures and why?arrow_forward
- Why is recrystallization not applicable to samples which contain large amount of impurities?arrow_forwardWhat is the function of a desiccant in a set-up of volatilization gravimetry? To remove nitrogen from the sample To remove sulfuric acid from the sample To remove water vapor from the sample To remove carbon dioxide from the samplearrow_forward[5]arrow_forward
