Would you recommend suction filtration for a solution where ether is the solvent?

Suction filtration is generally not recommended for solutions with ether as the solvent due to ether's low boiling point and high volatility, which can lead to evaporation during the filtration process. This can result in loss of the solvent and potentially alter the concentration of the solution. Additionally, ethers are flammable, and the suction setup could create a hazardous situation if not properly managed. Instead, gravity filtration might be a safer and more suitable option.


How does crossflow filtration work?

Crossflow filtration works by pushing the feed flow over a filter instead of through it. This lengthens the time that the filter can be used and is a continual process.


Why are stemless funnels used instead of long stem funnels to filter hot solutions through fluted filter paper?

Stemless funnels are used to prevent the filter paper from clogging and ensure efficient filtration of hot solutions. The absence of a long stem helps reduce heat transfer and allows the hot solution to flow freely through the filter paper without slowing down or cooling too quickly. This setup helps maintain the desired temperature and speed up the filtration process.


Do you use filtration in separating oil from water?

Yes, filtration is not an effective method for separating oil from water because oil molecules are much smaller than the pores in a filter. Instead, methods like centrifugation or skimming can be used to separate oil from water more effectively.


Can you separate charcoal from water using filtration?

No, filtration is not effective for separating charcoal from water due to the small particle size of charcoal. Instead, you can use techniques like sedimentation or decantation to separate the charcoal by allowing it to settle at the bottom of the container before pouring off the water.

Why is vacuum filtration faster than gravity filtration?

Vacuum filtration is used instead of gravity filtration in order to achieve a dryer product in less time. The faster process of vacuum filtration allows the slurry to remain cold and in cases such as with benzoic acid more crytals will remain formed at colder temperatures. Gravity filtration is most useful when the solid is to be discarded and the filtrate (the liquid that flows through the filter paper) kept. Vacuum filtration is often faster than gravity filtration and is most useful if the solid must be kept or if a filtration must be done rapidly. A vacuum from an aspirator or a vacuum pump is used to pull the liquid through a funnel containing a piece of filter paper, while the solid is left on the paper.


Does panadol osteo contain aspirin?

Paracetamol tablets DO NOT contain aspirin.


Can disprin be taken in case of heart attack instead of aspirin?

DIsprin is a brand name of aspirin. It can be taken in case of heart attack.


Can you substitute baby aspirin for real aspirin?

Yes, you can. Baby aspirin is the same as regular aspirin, just 1/4 of the regular amount (81mg instead of 330 mg). Since aspirin causes stomach bleeding, it is advisable to only take small amounts of it. 1-2 pills of baby aspirin usually works fine for me.


Why a vacuum filtration is avoided when crystals are isolated from a very volatile solvent?

Vacuum filtration is avoided when isolating crystals from a very volatile solvent because the reduced pressure can cause the solvent to evaporate rapidly, potentially leading to loss of the desired crystals. Instead, techniques such as simple gravity filtration or evaporation are more commonly used to isolate crystals from volatile solvents.


Is there a well water filtration casing that comes off at the top instead of the bottom?

No, there is not.


What are side affects from taking aspirin and Tylenol together?

If you take a dose of Tylenol and a dose of regular aspirin together, you would be overdosing, which could lead to death, but why would you do that when you could just take Tylenol brand aspirin, instead of a different type of Tylenol and an aspirin.


What can you take instead of aspirin?

There are many medications that can be taken in place of naproxen sodium, or Aleve. For instance, Motrin, Advil, or Tylenol can all be taken in place of Aleve.

What is the expression for specific gravity when kerosene is used instead of distilled water?

Specific gravity is the ratio of density of material to the density of water, so when we use Kerosin instead of water then the value will be multiplied by the specific gravity of kerosin to get the actual specific gravity.


Can almonds cure minor headaches?
