Answer: option D. The attractive forces between the sodium and chloride ions are overcome by the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions.
Explanation:
<em>Solid sodium chloride</em> (NaCl) is a ionic compound formed by ionic bonds between by the positive, metallic cations of sodium atom, Na⁺, and the negative, non-meatllic anions of chlorine atom, Cl⁻ (chloride).
Ionic bonds, then, are the electrostatic attracion between oppositely charged particles (cations and anions).

<em>When solid sodium chloride dissolves in water</em>, the ions (cations and anions) are separated in the solvent (water) due to the superior attracitve forces between such ions and the polar water molecules.
<em>Water</em> (H₂O) is a molecule, formed by polar covalent bonds between two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
The polarity of water molecule is due to the fact that oxygen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen atoms, which cause that the electron density is closer to oxygen nuclei than to hydrogen nuclei. This asymmetry in the electron density conferes a partial positive charge over each hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge over the oxygen atoms.
Thus, the positively charged hydrogen atoms attract and surround the negative chloride (Cl⁻) anions, while the negatively charged oxygen atoms attract and surround the positive sodium (Na⁺) cations. It is only because the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions are stronger than the attractive forces between the sodiium and chloride ions that such ions may be kept separated in the solution. This process is called solvation and the ions are said to be solvated by the water molecules.
Answer:
Aluminium.
Explanation:
The above electronic configuration can be written in a simplified form as shown below:
1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p¹
Next, we shall determine the number of electrons in the atom of the element as follow:
Number electron = 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 1
Number of electron = 13
Next, we shall determine the number of protons.
Since the element is in its neutral state,
The number of electrons and protons are equal i.e
Proton = Electron
Number of electron = 13
Proton = Electron = 13
Proton = 13
Next, we shall determine the atomic number of the element.
The atomic number of an element is simply the number of protons in the atom of the element i.e
Atomic number = proton number
Proton = 13
Atomic number = 13
Comparing the atomic number of the element with those in the periodic table, the element with the above electronic configuration is aluminium since no two elements have the same atomic number.
Answer:
SO the awnser is 76.9 trust me
Explanation:
If there is NO wind resistance, just plain math, this is the answer.
To get the answer you would divide 800 by 650.
800/650 = 1.230769231 (exactly)
That would translate to exactly <span>1 hour 13 minutes and 50 seconds </span>
