You can prove this by letting the water evaporate or using a instrument that can measure the solids in a liquid.

Explanation:

A solution is defined as the substance formed due to addition of two or more number of substances. A solution is a homogeneous mixture.

And, homogeneous mixtures are always clear solution. Particles of a homogeneous solution never combine chemically with each other.

For example, when we dissolve baking soda in water then it will completely dissolve in water forming a clear solution.

So, in order to determine that it is a solution we can let the water from the solution to evaporate.

This will leave behind the solute, that is, baking soda in the vessel. This will show that it is a solution.

Whereas a compound is defined as the substance in which different elements are chemically combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.

For example, MgSO_{4} is a compound and elements are present in 1:4 ratio.

Components of a compound can only be separated by chemical means and not by any physical means.

Types of osmosis...in 50 words​
ICE Princess25 [194]

<h3>Types of Osmosis</h3>

Osmosis is of two types:

Endosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypotonic solution, the solvent molecules move inside the cell and the cell becomes turgid or undergoes deplasmolysis. This is known as endosmosis.

Exosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypertonic solution, the solvent molecules move outside the cell and the cell becomes flaccid or undergoes plasmolysis. This is known as exosmosis.

Cracking the periodic table code why aren't the elements listed in alphabetical order answer key
finlep [7]

The elements in the periodice table are not listed in alphabetical order, because the arragement in rows (periods) and columns (groups or familes), in increasing order of atomic number (number of protons of the atoms) permits to explain similarities among the elements, trend in some properties, and even predict properties of unknown elements.


For example, the elements of the first group (family), called alkaline metals, all have 1 valence electron, have similar physical properties (ductibility, malleability, luster, thermal and electricity conductivity), react in similar way with water, show a trend in the atomic radii and in the ionization energy.


You can tell similar stories for other groups like, alkalyne earth metals, halogens and noble gases.


You can also tell trends in electroneativities, and atomic radii, for a row of elements, as per the order they are in the row.


So, the current array resulted very helpul for chemists to explain and predict the behavior and properties of the elements.

Which of these compounds would you expect to be most soluble in water? ch3ch2cl ch3ch2ch2ch3 ch3ch2ch2f ch3ch2ch2oh?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer : The compound that would be most soluble in water is CH3CH2CH2OH

Explanation :

Water is a polar solvent and can dissolve polar molecules. This is based on the principle "Like dissolves like".

Among the given molecules, CH3CH2CH2CH3 is a hydrocarbon known as butane. All hydrocarbons are non polar. Therefore this compound will not be soluble in water.

The remaining compounds are polar, but Ch3CH2CH2OH shows greater solubility in water owing to presence of hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that gets formed when a compound has hydrogen atom directly attached to highly electro-negative N, F or O atom.

When CH3CH2CH2OH is dissolved in water, it forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Due to this hydrogen bonding, the molecule shows greater solubility.

Therefore CH3CH2CH2OH is the most soluble compound in water
