Does benzoic acid dissolve in ligroin?
yes it does with heat, although it might take a super long time when heat up.
Can benzoic acid dissolve in acetone?
Yes, benzoic acid can dissolve in acetone because both are polar compounds. Acetone is a polar aprotic solvent that can effectively dissolve polar molecules like benzoic acid.
How do you separate benzoic acid from a mixture of benzoic acid and toluene using extraction?
Make a solution of Sodium Hydroxide or Sodium Carbonate and do three to four solvent solvent extractions using the aqueous base and the mixture o benzoic acid and toluene. Because benzoic acid reacts with base to form the water soluble carboxylate ion, it will react and the dissolve in the aqueous solution. Upon separation of the two phases acidify the aqueous extract with dilute HCl, a white needle-like precipitate of benzoic acid will form when the solution becomes acidic. Simply filter the crystals, wash with cold water, and then recrystallize using a mixture of 50/50 water and methanol or some other suitable solvent.
What is the RF value of benzoic acid in a specific chromatographic experiment?
The RF value of benzoic acid in a chromatographic experiment is a measure of how far the compound traveled compared to the solvent front. It is calculated by dividing the distance the compound traveled by the distance the solvent front traveled.
In liquid -liquid extraction what factors you consider to choose select the proper solvent as an example consider the extraction of benzoic acid from water?
When choosing a solvent for liquid-liquid extraction, factors to consider include the solubility of the target compound in the solvent, the selectivity of the solvent to the target compound, the density difference between the two phases to aid in separation, and the cost and toxicity of the solvent. For extracting benzoic acid from water, a suitable solvent might be ethyl acetate, as it has a good solubility for benzoic acid and can be separated easily due to its density difference with water.
How much water should be used for the recrystallisation of benzoic acid?
depends on how much benzoic acid you use. if you have 0.5g of benzoic acid , you need 30ml of water as a solvent.

How pure benzoic acid may be separated form a solution of sand and benzoic acid?
To separate benzoic acid from a solution of sand and benzoic acid, you can use solvent extraction. Benzoic acid is soluble in organic solvents like diethyl ether, while sand is not. By adding diethyl ether to the solution, the benzoic acid will dissolve in the ether, allowing you to separate it from the sand by decanting or filtration. Then, evaporate the diethyl ether to recover the pure benzoic acid.
How do you determine the partition coefficient of benzoic acid between benzene and water?
To determine the partition coefficient of benzoic acid between benzene and water, you would first measure the concentrations of benzoic acid in each solvent layer after equilibrium is reached. Then, calculate the partition coefficient by dividing the concentration of benzoic acid in benzene by the concentration in water at equilibrium. This ratio represents how the compound distributes between the two solvents.
Why can not benzoic acid be dissolved in water at room temperature?
To be soluble a solution must be capable of being dissolved in a solvent, usually water. The HCL cannot ionize into H+ with the COOH ring in the Benzoic acid. Benzoic is hydrophobic in this solution.

Is benzoic acid soluble in kerosene.?
Benzoic acid is soluble in kerosene.
What is the solubility of Benzoic acid in acetone?
Solubility of benzoic acid in acetone is 1.350 M
In liquid liquid extraction what factors you consider to choose select the proper solvent as an example consider the extraction of benzoic acid from water?
In choosing a proper solvent for liquid-liquid extraction of benzoic acid from water, factors to consider include solubility of the solute in the solvent, density difference between the solvent and water for easy phase separation, and the ability of the solvent to form a distinct phase with water. In this case, a non-polar solvent like diethyl ether or ethyl acetate could be suitable as they have good solubility for benzoic acid and can form a separate layer with water for easy separation.
