Why is cold ethanol used instead of room termperature ethanol?
Cold ethanol is most likely used instead of room temperature ethanol in order to prevent the ethanol from evaporating. When the temperature of something decreases the molecules speed decreases as well making it less likely to evaporate.
Why ethanol is used in recrystallization of benzanilide?
The identity of the solvent that is used in recrystallization is very important because only if the correct solvent is used, will the product be purified and recrystallized as desired. The product, benzanilide, is soluble in hot ethanol, but not in cold ethanol. Any impurities that are expected to arise from the reaction are not soluble in hot ethanol and soluble in the cold ethanol, and thus it is the perfect solvent for the recrystallization process, as only benzanilide is soluble in it and when it is cooled only benzanilide will crystallize out, while any impurities will be left behind in the solution.
What solution can you use to recrystalize a Mn-salen complex?
You can try usind cold ethanol. In seems to work with the other Salen complexes.
Explain why during the recrystallization of p-dibromobenzene the turbidity of the hot solution was used as an indicator for the ratio of ethanol to water used?
ethanol alone is not a good solvent for this substance recrystallization and the compound has a very low solubility in hot or cold water.so ethanol and water are mixed together as solvent for crystallization of p-dibromobenzene that is soluble in the hot solvent mixed.so the turbidity of the hot solution shows the good mixture of ethanol and water as solvent.
Does shell vpower have ethanol in Michigan?
Michigan has removed it's law requiring fuel pumps to display whether the gas contains any ethanol. So it cold contain 10 or 15% ethanol. As for Premium, it depends on the station's owner. Some will purchase their fuel ( all gas pumped into all the stations......be it shell, mobil, BP, Citgo etc) comes from only a few distributors. The only difference between them is their additives. That being said, Assume all gas has ethanol UNLESS the STATION itself advertises they're selling ETHANOL FREE. So does VPower contain Ethanol......... PROBABLY. Ask the station owner or operator if it does. That's the only way to be sure
Why is cold ethanol better than room temperaure for DNA isolation?
DNA does not dissolve on Alcohols. It is better to store it in cold temp. for it not to denature
What is the purpose of ice-cold ethanol?
In an experiment to extract DNA from something like an onion or strawberry, the last step is to slowly pour ice cold ethanol into the test tube. This causes the DNA to precipitate out of the solution and white stringy material appears a the boundary of the ethanol and prepared DNA solution. The reason why it happen is because ethanol solution break down the nuclear membrane and cell membrane.
Why fats is soluble in cold ethanol and not soluble in cold ethanol?
Have another go at writing the question.

Why is ethanol cold?
It is not cold, the reason u feel ur hand cold when some ethanol reaches it is that it starts vaporizing so it absorbs the heat of ur hand so u feel it cold,
Why does ethanol need to be cold?
To increase yield of DNA
Why does a few drops of ethanol poured on your arm feel very cold?
Ethanol is an alcohol-based liquid. Alcohols evaporate when warmed - the heat from your arm causes the ethanol to evaporate - taking the heat from your arm as it does, which makes your skin feel cold.
Function of isopropanol and ethanol in plasmid isolation?
Cold ethanol or isopropanol is used to precipitate the plasmid DNA, DNA is insoluble in alcohol and clumps or clings together. Centrifuging will cause the precipitate to form a pellet which can be decanted from the unwanted supernatant. Where as if compared with RNA isolation isopropanol is less efficient in precipitating RNA, where in presence of Lithium chloride or ammonium ions can give a good yield
In cell isolation why must cold buffer and centrifugation be carried in cold temperatures?
TO STOP ENZYME ACTIVITY
What happens when ethanol is added to soap?
From the experiment, why is a mixture of ethanol and water instead of simply water itself used for saponification? ... Ethanol is the catalyst in saponification C. Ethanol would help the soaps obtained from saponification reaction become more soluble in water D.
