Q

why would you heat something under reflux

A

to prevent vapours escaping, and to allow extended heating. more efficient.

Q

Describe fully the procedure required to obtain results that
would allow a calibration graph to be drawn

A

Standard/accurate/solutions or
solutions of known concentration
(are prepared/used).
A suitable filter/wavelength/colour
used.
Mention of a blank or solvent only
measurement.
Absorbance/transmittance of each
solution is measured/plotted.

16
Q

what causes d orbital splitting in octahedral complexes

A

repulsion from lone pair

17
Q

how is a colour arising when something is oxidised

A

movement from HOMO to LUMO which means the complementary colour is absorbed

18
Q

why may two different molecules be able to bind to the same receptor

A

they have the same structural fragment - have a common functional group

19
Q

what steps would be used to separate molecules

A

use a separating funnel. shake molecules. leave to separate into layers. run off the lower layer.
