Ethyl acetate is generally a good solvent for TLC. It is more polar than hexanes, but less so than acetone, alcohols, acids, and water. If you are doing a reaction for the first time and have no idea what solvent system to use for TLC, varying ratios of hexanes:ethyl acetate is always a good starting point (try 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2. 1:3, etc).

How do you make a 3M HCl solution in Ethyl acetate?
To make ethyl acetate, react ethanol with ethanoic acid in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid. Another method is by preparing industrially using the Tishchenko reaction by combining two equivalents of acetaldehyde in the presence of an alkoxide catalyst.
Is hydrogen peroxide a solvent or solute?
It depends on the other substance that you are using. A solute is something that dissolves in something else. A solvent is something that other substances dissolve in For example: Salt dissolves in water Water is the solvent Salt is the solute
How do you prepare 100mM ammonium acetate?
To prepare the buffer using solid form reagents, prepare a 0.1 M ammonium acetate solution by dissolving 7.7 g ammonium acetate in a 1000 ml water. Adjust 1 L of this solution to pH 4.5 by adding acetic acid (about 8 ml) and 5 ml of 1 M p-TSA (equivalent to 5 mM p-TSA).
Can your give me a sentence using the words tectonic plates?
The tectonic plates slide together, causing an earthquake to erupt across the southern part of the state.
Using saltwater as an example define solute and solvent and explain what happens when salt NaCl dissolves in water?
The solute is the salt.The water is the solvent.The water acts as a solvent to the solute of salt. It forms a solution when the salt has fully dissolved into the water.Get it?
How do you break down caffeine?
There are many different methods to remove the caffine. one way is below, it is a long process and not easy. It would be much easier to just buy decaf at your local market.In the direct method the coffee beans are first steamed for 30 minutes and then repeatedly rinsed with either methylene chloride or ethyl acetate for about 10 hours. The solvent is then drained away and the beans steamed for an additional 10 hours to remove any residual solvent. Sometimes coffees decaffeinated using ethyl acetate are referred to as naturally processed because ethyl acetate can be derived from various fruits or vegetables. However for the purpose of decaffeination it is not generally possible to create such a large quantity of ethyl acetate, thus the chemical is synthetically derived.WOW Gouch53 you are a brainiact i didn't even know you could.-Lovestinks10
What is Rf value of o-nitroaniline?
The Rf value will vary some depending on the exact conditions. Using a silica plate and a moderately polar solvent (dichloromethane or a mixture of toluene/ethyl acetate) you will get an Rf of 0.4-0.5.
What is the RF value for paracetamol?
That depends on many factors including the elution solvent used, the type of TLC plate used, etc.. When using .5% of acetic acid in ethyl acetate as your elution solvent and on a plastic backed plate, the Rf-value should be around 79.82%
What is the Rf value of salicylamide?
It will depend on the solvent system you are using.

How can you remove water from ethyl acetate by using inorganic salt?
It is very easy to remove water from Ethylacetate using salt such as calcium chloride flakes. cacl2 will absorb all moisture and seperates as layer in the bottom using density difference Murugavel.k
Which Solvent can dissolve Mono Ammonium Phosphate other than Water?
It does go in ethyl alcohol easily.... it can go in propanol, but you need a lot of solvent so it's not worth using it.... I goes in ethylene glycol too, but you have to be patient.....
Why it is more useful to make ethyl acetate with acetic acid and alcohol rather than using other compounds like ketene alcohol or acetamide alcohol?
because it does not react in acetic acid
Are the chemicals used to decaffeinate coffee toxic?
There are three methods involved in decaffeinating coffee. They are using chemical solvents, carbon dioxide and Swiss water method. Chemicals used in chemical solvents are ethyl acetate and methylene chloride.
What is successive extraction?
Successive extraction of any plant part involves sequential extraction ( e.g. employing soxhlet apparatus or maceration) using solvents with increasing polarity. Following each extraction, the marc (refuse matter that remains after extract has been filtered) will be dried before being extracted using solvent with higher polarity. For example, the following solvents can be used in successive order (lower to higher polarity): petroleum ether then chloroform then ethyl acetate, then methanol.
A sentence using the word solvent?
Be careful with that solvent!
