Salt water, distillation

Place 45 g. (43 ml.) of benzal chloride (Section IV,22), 250 ml. of water and 75 g. of precipitated calcium carbonate (1) in a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask fltted with a reflux condenser, and heat the mixture for 4 hours in an oil bath maintained at 130°. It is advantageous to pass a current of carbon dioxide through the apparatus. Filter off the calcium salts, and distil the filtrate in steam (Fig. II, 40, 1) until no more oil passes over (2). Separate the benzaldehyde from the steam distillate by two extractions with small volumes of ether, distil off most of the ether on a water bath, and transfer the residual benzaldehyde to a wide-mouthed bottle or flask. Add excess of a concentrated solution of sodium bisulphite in portions with stirring or shaking stopper the vessel and shake vigorously until the odour of benzaldehyde can no longer be detected. Filter the paste of the benzaldehyde bisulphite compound at the pump...

The acidic double salt of ammonium acetate and acetic acid [25007-86-7], CH COONH CH COOH, is made by dissolving the neutral salt in hot acetic acid or by distilling the neutral salt. During distillation the acid salt is formed as a heavy oil that solidifies on cooling. It crystallizes as long, dehquescent needles that melt at 66 °C. Acid ammonium acetate is readily soluble in both water and alcohol. 

Magnesium oxide is a typical acid scavenger for chlorinated mbbers. Compounds containing zinc oxide or magnesium oxide may tend to swell upon immersion in water. These inorganic salts have some water solubiHty and osmotic pressure causes the vulcanizates to imbibe water to equalize pressure (8,9). As such, vulcanizates tend to sweU more in fresh (distilled) water than in salt water. To minimize water sweU, insoluble salts such as lead oxides can be substituted. Because of the health concerns associated with lead, there is much mbber industry interest in other acid acceptors, such as synthetic... 

Reagents such as water, ammonia, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, perchloric acid, and sulfuric acid can be purified via distillation (preferably under reduced pressure and particularly with perchloric acid) using an allglass still. Isothermal distillation is convenient for ammonia a beaker containing concentrated ammonia is placed alongside a beaker of distilled water for several days in an empty desiccator so that some of the ammonia distils over into the water. The redistilled ammonia should be kept in polyethylene or parafrin-waxed bottles. Hydrochloric acid can be purified in the same way. To ensure the absence of metal contaminants from some salts (e.g. ammonium acetate), it may be more expedient to synthesise the salts using distilled components rather than to attempt to purify the salts themselves. 

According to the literature, the product obtained in this manner may contain ethyl adipate. To remove this, the product is cooled to 0° and run slowly into 600 cc. of 10 per cent potassium hydroxide solution maintained at 0° with ice-salt. Water is added until the salt which separates has dissolved, and the cold alkaline solution is extracted twice with 200-cc. portions of ether. The alkaline solution, kept at 0°, is run slowly into 900 cc. of 10 per cent acetic acid solution with stirring, the temperature remaining below 1° (ice-salt). The oil which separates is taken up in 400 cc. of ether, and the aqueous solution is extracted with four 250-cc. portions of ether. The ether extract is washed twice with cold 7 per cent sodium carbonate solution and dried over sodium sulfate. After removal of the ether the residue is distilled, b.p. 7g-8i°/3 mm. The recovery is only 80-85 per cent, and in a well-conducted preparation the ethyl adipate eliminated amounts to less than one per cent of the total product. Unless the preparation has proceeded poorly the tedious purification ordinarily is best omitted. 

Suppose we compare two liquid samples, one of distilled water, and one of salt water. Each sample is a homogeneous system consisting of a single phase. However, one of the liquids is a pure substance whereas the other is a solution. We cannot tell, merely by visual observation, which of these clear liquids is the pure substance and which is the solution. True, there are differences—for example, the salt water has a greater density than the pure water—but even this property does not indicate which is the pure substance.

Half-life is 8.5 min in distilled water at 25°C and 60 min in salt water at 25 °C. Mustard on or under water undergoes hydrolysis only if dissolved. It is only slightly soluble in water as a result mustard may persist in water for long periods. Alkalinity and higher temperatures increase the rate of hydrolysis.

Place each of the nails in a separate beaker. Add distilled water to one of the beakers containing a copper-wrapped nail and one of the beakers containing a magnesium-wrapped nail. Add enough distilled water to just cover the wrapped nails. Add salt water to the other two beakers. Record your observations for each of the beakers. 

Describe the difference between copper-wrapped nails in the distilled water and salt water after standing overnight. 

Measurements for pH determinations in a mixture of aqueous and organic solvents should be described as apparent pH. The true pH value can only be measured in aqueous solutions. In general, the apparent pH of a buffer solution increases as the proportion of organic solvent in the aqueous mixture increases. When preparing an eluent, it is usually best to dissolve the required buffer salts in distilled water at the appropriate concentration, adjust the pH, then mix this solution with the required organic solvents. 

Bromine is the 62nd most abundant element found on Earth. Although it is not found uncombined in nature, it is widely distributed over the Earth in low concentrations. It is found in seawater at a concentration of 65 ppm. This concentration is too low for the bromine to be extracted directly, so the salt water must be concentrated, along with chlorine and other salts, by solar evaporation, distillation, or both.
