You have 100 mL of a solution of benzoic acid in water; the amount of benzoic acid

The extraction with four 20-mL extractions with ether is more efficient.

Explanation:

We are given the following parameters which are going to help in solving this particular Question.

=> The volume of the solution of benzoic acid in water = 100mL, the estimated amount of benzoic acid in the solution = 0.30 g and the distribution coefficient (approximately ) = 10 = 1/ 10 = 0.1

Therefore, the amount of acid that would be left in the water solution after four 20-mL extractions with ether = 0.3( 0.1 × 100 ÷ 10 + 20)^4 = 0.0037 g.

Also, the amount of acid that would be left in the water solution after one 80-mL extractions with ether = 0.3( 0.1 × 100/ 10 + 80)^1 = 0.033 g.

Since 0.033 g > 0.0037 g, the extraction with four 20-mL extractions with ether is more efficient.

Explanation:

1 ) Al has physical and chemical properties, similar to Boron, because It's also part of group 13, also called the boron group. The elements are characterized by having three valence electrons.

2) Lithium is in group 1. This means it has 1 valence electron.

Nitrogen has 7 electrons. The first shell can only have 2 electrons, so the second and outer shell has 5 electrons. Those 5 electrons are the 5 valence electrons;

Neon is a noble gas, it's in the stable noble gas configuration. This means it has 8 valence electrons.

Oxygen = non-metal because it's a gas

Silicon = metalloid

Helium = non-metal because it's a gas

Arsenic = metalloid

Sodium = it's an (alkali) metal, It is physically silver colored and is a soft metal of low density. Pure sodium is not found naturally on earth because it is a highly reactive metal

Chlorine = non-metal

Tin = Is a soft,  ductile and highly crystalline silvery-white metal

Boron = it does conduct electricity. Its chemical properties are mostly, but not entirely, and non-metallic

lead = is a heavy metal that is denser than most common materials

Radon = metalloid

Cesium = It is a soft, silvery-golden alkali metal

Carbon = non metal

Period
