(a)
To determine: The pairs of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation.
Interpretation: The pair of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation is to be stated.
Concept introduction: If two compounds have same molecular formula, but the spatial arrangement of atoms is different, then they are known as stereoisomers. Stereoisomers are further divided into two categories: optical isomers and geometrical isomers. The two different forms in which a single chiral carbon can exist is referred as enantiomers. The class of diastereomers includes stereoisomers that are not enantiomers. They are not the mirror images of each other. There are two or more chiral centers generally present in diastereoisomers.

- 18-17 Hexanoic (caproic) acid has a solubility in water of about 1 g/100 mL water. Which part of the molecule contributes to water solubility, and which part prevents solubility?arrow_forwardCarboxylic acids are acidic enough to dissolve in both 10% NaOH and NaHCO3. Phenols, ArOH, are weak acids and most phenols will not dissolve in 10% NaHCO3. How would you separate a mixture of a carboxylic acid (RCOOH), an amine (RNH2), a phenol (ArOH) and a hydrocarbon (RH) using chemically active extraction? Draw a flow chart to illustrate your separation. Show each species in the aqueous and organic layers.arrow_forwardBriefly describe how you could separate the components of a mixture of benzoic acid and Na2SO4 and recover the two separated substances.arrow_forward
