Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:Purpose of decolorizing carbon to poison victims should be determined.
Concept introduction:Decolorizing carbon is activated charcoal used for removal of colored impurities in process of recrystallization. It is commercially found as Darco or Norite and exists in finely divided powdered state with large surface area.
b)
Interpretation:Removal of charcoal from victim should be explained.
Concept introduction: Decolorizing carbon is activated charcoal used for removal of colored impurities in process of recrystallization. It is commercially found as Darco or Norite and exists in finely divided powdered state with large surface area.

- researchers working in a chemistry lab were examined anatomical structures of the brain using concentrated formaldehyde solutions. Once their studies concluded there remained 1.5 gallons of the substance and the researcher decided to pour this down the drain. In this case, they directly violet regulations put in place by which office?1. Office of research integrity 2. Institutional animal care and use committee3.

- Nina, Roland, and Odi tried to do a recrystallization technique to purify a crude sample of benzoic acid. However, their instructor, George, pointed out some things about their technique. Roland forgot to add charcoal to the crude sample. Nina put the hot sample in the ice bath immediately. Odi used a long-stemmed funnel. Who among the students will achieve the highest purity? a. None of the above b. Nina c. Odi d. Roland Explain why. Thank you!arrow_forward10.
