Question
Chapter 3.2, Problem 34E
a)
Interpretation Introduction
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 Introduction
Interpretation:Removal of charcoal from victim should be explained.

Students have asked these similar questions
Explain and elaborate how the following purification techniques work:
a. Sublimation
b. Recrystallization
assuming that charcoal and sugar are the main impurities in a sample of crude acetanilide explain how recrystallization from water would remove each.
If a mixture is distilled rapidly, the separation of its compound is poorer than if the mixture is distilled slowly. Please explain why is that so using your own understanding. I don't need a copy-pasted answer from google.
