1. Calculate the percent recovery of benzoic acid, naphthalene and 3-nitroaniline if you were able to collect 10.75 g of benzoic acid, 5.41 g of naphthalene, and 7.81 g of 3-nitroaniline from a set of extractions. The starting mass of the mixture was 25.04 g. (0.6 pt) 2. Describe why it is important to use sodium hydroxide and hydrochloride acid in this experiment. Why was it necessary to initially start off with a 5% solution of the acid or base for this experiment

Explanation:

1.)

mass = 25.04

percentage recovery

2. This experiment has these compounds, benzoic acid (which is an acid), naphthalene (this is neutral) and 3-nitroaniline (this is a base).

to extract, 5 percent of NaOH has to be used in order for benzoic acid to become with sodium hydroxide. the salt would then dissolve in H2O, the other two remaining are going to dissolve in organic layer. and this would make benzoic acid to leave the mix.

we make use of 5 percent of HCl so that the 3-nitroaniline will turn into ammonium salt with the hcl, then the ammonium salt would dissolve in water and naphtalene would become soluble in organic layer. when this happens we would then have the three compounds separated.

*tilts head* sounds more like a statement

answer

fusion: the energy source of stars. the energy released from the collapse of the gas into a protostar causes the center of the protostar to become extremely hot. when the core is hot enough, nuclear fusion commences. fusion is the process where two hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom, releasing energy.
