Paper chromatography separates compounds based on their. A polar molecule has one end that is more positively charged than the other end. Blue dye is more polar compared to red.

You find a white granular substance in a jar in your cupboard you suspect that it may be either sugar or salt how could you find out without tasting the substances?

You can perform a simple solubility test to differentiate between sugar and salt. Since sugar is soluble in water, while salt is soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol, you can dissolve a small amount of the granular substance in water and in alcohol separately. If the substance dissolves in water but not in alcohol, it is likely sugar. If it dissolves in both, it is likely salt.


How would you use alcohol and cold water to test for fat?

To test for fat using alcohol and cold water, you would first dissolve the sample suspected of containing fat in warm alcohol, which helps dissolve the fat. Afterward, you would add cold water to the alcohol solution; if fat is present, it will form a cloudy emulsion or separate out, indicating the presence of fat. This method works because fats are not soluble in water, leading to a visible reaction.


Is water soluble in mucin?

I would say backwards, mucin is soluble in water.


What type of flame would have for the combustion of amyl alcohol have?

The combustion of amyl alcohol would produce a blue flame. This is because the blue flame indicates that complete combustion is occurring, where all the fuel is burning efficiently with enough oxygen.


Is it possible to extract alcohol from an alcoholic drink if so what would be left of the drink and would it still be drinkable?

The alcohol can be removed by fractional distillation : if done carefully, the remainder of the beverage would be unchanged and drinkable, except that any alcohol-soluble solids would precipitate. Heating the liquid to about 175 degrees F (80 degrees C) will drive out the alcohol. If the drink were heated enough, the water would also evaporate, and would have to be re-added to the remaining materials to recreate the drink. The problem would be that heating the drink to remove the alcohol (without removing the water) is a destructive process to many beverages, including those that depend on carbonation or dissolved gases. When used to lower the alcohol content of drinks such as beer, it is done under controlled conditions because heat and light can affect the non-alcoholic product.

Is iron soluble in alcohol?

Iron is not soluble in alcohol. Iron is a metallic element that does not dissolve in alcohol, which is a polar solvent. If you need to dissolve iron in a solution, you would typically use an acid or other specialized solvents.


Which liquid or liquids would be most suitible for the extraction of alprazolam Is it soluble in Lemon Juice or Alcohol or Sterilized Vegetable Oil or anything else possibly?

Alprazolam is soluble in ethanol.


Is iodine more soluble in alcohol than in kerosene?

I would suspect iodine to be more soluble in alcohol than kerosene because iodine is a polar compound and so it alcohol. Kerosene is non polar. Now should you mix them? Don't think so! Iodine is a strong oxidizer and can react with the alcohol or the kerosene. This may likely cause a fire or explosion if conditions where right.


Is 1 butanol soluble in hexane?

Butanol has a short enough aliphatic chain that it is still somewhat soluble in water. As the length of the carbon chain increases, the alcohol would become increasingly insoluble in water and would be better suited for hexane as a solvent.


Is cyclohexane soluble to ethyl alcohol?

yes, at STP, as the change in gibbs free energy is negaitve for all cases. however, the mixing does require heat input to stay isothermal, as heat is required to break the hydrogen bonding of ethanol by cyclohexane


Is B6 fat-soluble?

B6 is water soluble not fat soluble. if you would look at a Lewis structure for it, you would find that it has multiple hydrogen bonds (OH) which makes it a water soluble. a fat soluble would be a non polar molecule containing hydrocarbon chains (CH3)

Will you pass a etg test after 96 hours?

No. ETG tests are extremely sensitive, and they test for alcohol metabolites, not the alcohol itself. Since ETG is fat soluble, it leaves the body much slower than the alcohol.
