Suppose you wish to extract 10g of benzoic acid that were originally present in ethyl acetate using aqueous NaHCO3

ii) what is the minimum amount of concentrated HCL (37% by w/v%) that would be needed to convert the sodium benzoate back to free acid after the extraction?

iii) Suppose you now want to re-extract benzoic acid after you re-protonated the benzoate back to benzoic acid using HCl. How many extractions do you need in order to extract at least 95% of the benzoic acid from the 45mL of Hcl with 15mL of methylene chloride? The partition coefficient for benzoic acid between methylene chloride and HCl is 3.5

    Experiment: A mixture of equal proportions of benzoic acid, ethyl 4-aminobenzoate, and 1,4-dimethoxybenzene are to be separated by extraction using the solvent diethyl ether. Day 1: Part A. Isolation of the basic component: In a small beaker, dissolve 3 g of the mixture (benzoic acid, ethyl 4-aminobenzoate, and 1,4-dimethoxybenzene) in 30 mL of diethyl ether and transfer the mixture to a 125- mL separatory funnel (see Fig. 1) using a little diethyl ether to complete the transfer. Add 10 mL...

    can you pleas help me making a Flow chart for separation a mixture of trans-cinnamic acid, 4-phenylphenol, and nicotinamide by extraction? thank you Procedure Your mission is to separate a mixture of trans-cinnamic acid, 4-phenylphenol, and nicotinamide by extraction. Start by dissolving/suspending two grams of the mixture in approximately 50 mL of diethyl ether. (Caution: Diethyl ether is extremely flammable! Extract the ether twice with -25 mL of 5% HCl and then twice with -25 mL 5% sodium bicarbonate. It...

    Construct a flow chart describing the seperation of the mixture and the isolation of each compound in this experiment. (Lab steps/procedures includes for reference) 4. Construct a flow chart describing the separation of the mixture and the isolation of each compound in this experiment. A commonly used method of separating a mixture of organic compounds is known as liquid-liquid extraction. Most reactions of organic compounds require extraction at some stage of product purification. In this experiment you will use extraction...

    Exercise 2 Separation of a Mixture Based on Acid-Base Properties One purpose of this exercise is to learn how to use a separatory funnel to extract a single component away from other compounds in solution. To do so, we will apply the principles of solubility and acid-base behavior you’re seeing in class. One of the compounds is neutral in the acid-base sense. It has no ability to either donate or accept a proton from an aqueous solution, and will remain...
