The electronegativity of the element affects the ability of its compounds to dissolve in different solvents.
<h3>What is the meaning of electronegativity?</h3>
Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons to itself.
Polar bonds have a positive and negative side to them, and therefore can attract water dipoles and dissolve in water.
If the polarities of the solvent and solute match (both are polar or both are nonpolar), then the solute will probably dissolve.
If the polarities of the solvent and solute are different (one is polar, one is nonpolar), the solute probably won't dissolve.
Hence, option D is correct.

Answer: C. ethanol
The enthalpy of combustion is the amount of heat produced when one mole of ethanol undergoes complete combustion at 25 ° C and 1 atmosphere pressure, yielding products also at 25 ° C and 1 atm.
<u>The enthalpy of combustion of the unknown compound is</u>
ΔH = - 320 kJ / 0.25 mol = - 1280 kJ / mol
<u>To choose a probable compound according to this combustion enthalpy, we must evaluate the deviation in relation to the values reported in the literature for the three probable compounds</u> (methane, ethylene and ethanol). The deviation (e%) will be calculated according to the following equation,
e% = ( | ΔHx - ΔH | / ΔHx ) x 100%
where ΔHx is the enthalpy of combustion of the probable compound.
The following table shows the combustion enthalpies of the probable compounds and their deviation in relation to the enthalpy of ΔH = - 1280 kJ / mol
Compound Enthalpy of combustion (kJ/mol) Deviation
Methane - 890.7 43.8%
Ehylene -1411.2 9.3%
Ethanol -1368.6 6.5%
According to the previous table, we can say that the most probable compound is ethanol, since it has the smallest deviation in relation to the experimental enthalpy value of combustion.
A. Tolerance range is different for different organisms.
No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.
Answer:
Cu(NO3)2(aq)+Pb(s) ⇌ Pb(NO3)2(aq)+Cu(s)
Explanation:
If we look at the both reactions closely, we will quickly discover that the reaction CuSO4(aq)+Pb(s) ⇌ PbSO4(s)+Cu(s) involves PbSO4.
The compound PbSO4 is insoluble in water and sinks to the bottom of the reaction vessel. When this occurs, the concentration of Pb^2+ becomes low. This will bring about a low voltage in the cell.
On the other hand, Pb(NO3)2 is soluble in water hence the cell voltage in this case is higher than the former.
