The characteristic of water that is responsible for frost wedging is that it expands as it freezes and is denoted as option A.

<h3>What is Frost wedging?</h3>

This is referred to a type of physical weathering  which is characterized by rocks being broken down into smaller particles through the freezing and thawing process.

This is possible because water is known to expand as it freezes thereby resulting in the expansion of the rocks which forms cracks as a result of frequent freezing and thawing processes.

This is therefore the most appropriate characteristic of water which makes it possible for frost wedging to take place.

What is the reason for the low solubility of LiF (0.27 g
Brut [27]

Answer:

The answer is C. The high solvation energy for LI+

Explanation:

LiF has lower solubility because of the high solvation energy of Li+ ion. This is due to the smaller  size and very big charge compared to Cs+ ion which has a bigger size and solvent molecules easily surround it.

Solvation energy is simply the amount energy that is required to make a solute dissolve in a solvent.
