4. Which of these can be used to remove colored impurities during the recrystallization process? C. Norit Norit is a brand name for activated charcoal, which is commonly used as an adsorbent to remove colored impurities from solutions during recrystallization. 5. Why is it necessary to remove the stopper from a separatory funnel when the liquid is drained through the stopcock? To _____ D. prevent the formation of a vacuum Removing the stopper allows air to enter the separatory funnel, preventing a vacuum from forming above the liquid as it drains. This ensures a smooth and continuous flow of liquid. 6. Which of these visualizing techniques is non-destructive? B. UV detection UV detection is a non-destructive method because it relies on the compound's ability to absorb UV light or fluoresce, without chemically altering the compound itself. Concentrated H₂SO₄ and Ninhydrin are destructive as they react chemically with the compounds. 7. The boiling point of a compound does not depend upon the _____ D. Solubility of the compound in water The boiling point of a compound depends on the strength of its intermolecular forces (like hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, and London dispersion forces), which are influenced by factors such as molecular size and polarity. Solubility in water describes how a compound interacts with water, not the energy required to overcome its own intermolecular forces to change from liquid to gas. 8. Fractionating columns are used when the _____ C. boiling point difference of the composition is less than 5°C Fractionating columns are used in fractional distillation to separate liquids with close boiling points, typically when the difference is less than 25°C, and often specifically for differences less than 5-10°C for effective separation.
