What is the minimum amount of solvent needed


1. A mixture of benzoic acid, and benzyl alcohol is spotted ona silica gel TLC plate and developed in adichloromethane-cyclohexane solvent mixture. Predict the relative Rf values for the three components in the sample?

2. The solubility of phenacetin in water is 0 degrees celsius is 0.54 g per 100 mL and 5.0 g per 100mL at 100 degrees celsius.

a) What is the minimum amount of solvent needed to recrystallize 0.200 g of phenacetin? How much would be lost in the recrystallization?

b) What is the maximum mass of phenacetin that can be recovered when the chilled solution is suctionfiltered?
