temperature affects the solubility of a substance..benzoic is poor in cold water because it is only slightly soluble in water..in order for it to reach the point of saturation, heat must be applied..heat acts as a catalyst..

According to the published solubility what is the minimum amount of water in which 1 gram of benzoic acid can be dissolved?

Benzoic acid is sparingly soluble in water, with a published solubility of approximately 3.4 g/L at room temperature. To dissolve 1 gram of benzoic acid, you would need at least around 0.29 L or 290 mL of water.


Which of These compound does not form a clear solution with the cold water.. a.benzoic acid b.sugar c.backing power d.caustic soda?

Benzoic acid does not form a clear solution with cold water. It tends to remain as a suspension or may partially dissolve, causing cloudiness in the solution.


What is the solubility of salicylic acid in hot and cold water?

Salicylic acid does not dissolves very easily in hot and cold water. This acid is widely used in acne medicine. It is derived from the bark of the willow tree.


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 solubility of hypophosphorus acid in cold water?

The hypophosphorus acid is miscible with water.


What results from a mixture of benzoic acid to and HCL?

You will get benzoic acid as a result. The benzoic salt will gain a Hydrogen from the HCl; thus, becoming benzoic acid, and the Cl shall remain by itself in suspension if you're mixing the two together in an aqueous solution.


Which chemical is addied which prevent spoilage of cold drink?

What is the solubility of recorcinol in cold water?

Resorcinol is sparingly soluble in cold water, with a solubility of about 5 g/L at room temperature. Heating the water can increase the solubility of resorcinol.


What is the solubility of toluene in cold water and hot water?

Toluene has low solubility in cold water but is more soluble in hot water due to its nonpolar nature. In cold water, the interaction between water molecules is stronger than the interaction between water and toluene molecules, resulting in limited solubility. In hot water, increased kinetic energy disrupts these interactions, allowing for better mixing and increased solubility of toluene.


Why wait till crude benzoic acid is cold to add charcoal?

Safety. It will bubble vigorously if charcoal is added when hot.


How does cold water affect the solubility of the Milk of Magnesia?

The solubility of magnesium hydroxide in water is very low; and in cool water is even smaller.
