Why is the sodium benzoate easily extracted into H20 while the original benzoic acid is not easily extracted into H20?

Because sodium benzoate is a salt and is soluble in water while benzoic acid is insoluble.

How do you separate benzoic acid from a mixture of CONGO RED and salt?
Dissolve the mixture in an apolar organic solvent, such as diethyl ether, and extract the acid with the addition of NaOH. The bezoic acid with ionize and go into the aqueous solution. Separate the two layers and add HCl to the aqueous layer to precipitate the benzoic acid. Wash the remaing ether solution with water and dry it with an anhydrous salt. Filter the ether solution and then remove the ether, the solvent, in order to obtain the pure benzoin.
Does Benzoic Acid react with Hypochlorous Acid in water and room temperature?
I assume that it will not react because benzoic acid cannot be oxidized easily by the hypochlorous acid. I would not try this at a large scale without appropriate safety measures though!
Is aluminum an ore explain?
yes an aluminium is an ore, it it found in a rock and can be extracted very easily
Benzoic acid is non-water soluble?
From the structure of benzoic acid, we can see that the phenyl substituent makes of most of the molecule, so we should expect it to be nonpolar with respect to water. However, if another molecule were to deprotonate the benzoic acid (ie. with a base like NaOCH3), its conjugate base -- which by the way is negatively charged -- will easily dissolve in water because it can form favorable interactions with water molecules.
What is the problem with using low-grade ores as a copper source?
The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.
A mixture of camphor and benzoic acid can be easily separated by?
Benzoic acid is more soluble than camphor in ethanol. The solution can be filtrated.
How a mixture of sand and benzoic acid which is soluble in hot water might be separated to provide benzoic acid?
Sand is insoluble in water and can be easily filtered.
Benzoic acid is unsaturated or saturated compound?
Benzoic acid is unsaturated because it has double- double carbon bonds and due to resonance those bonds can be easily move around , that's what makes benzoic acid unique. All compounds containing a benzene ring are actually unsaturated.

Why can you see the extracted with the naked eye?
When extracted from many cells in a sample, using various solvents, the DNA can easily be collected and seen with the naked eye.

Why is coal a good energy source?
It is easily found and extracted, it burns easily and gives a good thermal energy output, better than wood for example.
Can the buprenorphine in the patches be extracted?
Not easily just scrape the jelly stuff off and eat it or leave it under your tongue
