The answer is highly soluble

<h3>How does sodium hydroxide dissolve in water?</h3>

When hydroxide (NaOH) dissolved in water, it divides into positively and negatively charged sodium ions (cations) and hydroxide ions (anions). These ions move freely and independently in water, while cations prefer to be surrounded more closely by anions and vice versa.

Although sodium hydroxide is more soluble in hot than in cold water, the process of dissolving sodium hydroxide in water is exothermic.

The unknown compound's insolubility in water might be attributed to its big hydrocarbon group. Because it is dissolved in 5% Naoh, its substituent may be acidic because the interaction with NaOH produces an anion that is soluble in aqueous solution.

Describe all the relationships between pressure, volume, and temperature

hammer [34]

The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, provided that the volume does not change (Amontons's law).

 The volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is held constant (Boyle's law).

What term describes a carbon atom that has four different groups bonded to it?

oee [108]

A carbon which is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms with different environment is called as Chiral Carbon or Asymmetric Carbon.

Non-superimposable:
 The mirror image (molecule) of chiral carbon cotaining compounds are Non.Superimposable on each other. They are called enantiomers of each other.

Polarized Light and Chiral Carbon:
When a polarized light is allowed to fall on either enantiomer of chiral compound, it is rotated other clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Examples:
Below are three axamples of compounds containing chiral carbon.

How many moles of S are in 35.4 g of (C3H5)2S?

alexandr402 [8]

0.310 moles First, look up the atomic weights of the elements involved. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight sulfur = 32.065 Molar mass (C3H5)2S = 6 * 12.0107 + 10 * 1.00794 + 32.065 = 114.2086 g/mol Moles (C3H5)2S = 35.4 g / 114.2086 g/mol = 0.309959145 mol Since there's just one sulfur atom per (C3H5)2S molecule, the number of moles of sulfur will match the number of moles of (C3H5)2S which is 0.310 when rounded to 3 significant digits.
