Prepare a flow sheet for the preparation of benzoic acid. Using your knowledge of the physical properties of the solvents, reactants, and products, show how the products can be purified. Indicate which layer should contain the product in the liquid/liquid extraction steps.

Magnesium is the limiting reactant in this experiment. calculate the theoretical yield of mgo for each trial. trial 1: trial 2: data mass of empty crucible with lid trial 1: 26.688 trial 2: 26.681 mass of mg metal, crucible, and lid trial 1: 26.994 trial: 2 26.985 mass of mgo, crucible, and lid trial 1: 27.188 trial 2: 27.180
