calculate the maximum theoretical percent recovery from the recrystallization of 1.00g of benzoic acid

The maximum theoretical percent recovery from the recrystallization of 1.00 g of benzoic acid from 15 mL of water = 94.9%

Note: The question is incomplete. A similar but complete question is given below:

The solubility of benzoic acid in water is 6.80g per 100mL at 100 degrees C and 0.34 g per 100mL at 25 degrees C.

Calculate the maximum theoretical percent recovery from the recrystallization of 1.00 g of benzoic acid from 15 mL of water, assuming the solution is filtered at 25 degrees C.

Explanation:

Solubility of benzoic acid in water at 100 degrees C = 6.80g per 100mL

Solubility of benzoic acid in water  at 25 degrees C =  0.34 g per 100mL

Mass of benzoic acid to be theoretically recovered from 100 mL of water = 6.80 g - 0.34 g = 6.46 g

At 25 degrees;

0.34 g of benzoic acid is present in 100 mL of water

x g of  benzoic acid will be present in 15 mL of water

x = 0.34 × 15 / 100 = 0.051 g

Mass of benzoic acid to be theoretically recovered from 25 mL of water = 1.00 g - 0.051 g = 0.949 g

Maximum theoretical percent recovery = (mass recovered / original mass dissolved) x 100%

Maximum theoretical percent recovery =  (0.949 / 1.00) × 100% = 94.9 %

Therefore, the maximum theoretical percent recovery from the recrystallization of 1.00 g of benzoic acid from 15 mL of water = 94.9%

answer

the ions in solute supperate from eachouthere

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.
