How does the polarity of the solute affect how well a solvent will dissolve?

1 answer:

Polarity is the ability to distinguish between the electric charge of a molecule or different chemical groups having dipoles or multipole moment. Polar molecules have polar bonds based on the difference in electronegativity between atoms bonded together. Polarity affects how solvents dissolve by following the idea that "like dissolves like" in other words, polar molecules are best dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar molecules dissolve better in nonpolar solvents. Moreover, ionic solvents dissolve polar solutes. By this the final answer is E, similar polarity makes the solvent more likely to dissolve

Hydrogen reacts with 0.771 g of carbon to form 0.90 g of a compound. What is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound

andriy [413]

Hello!

Answer: 14.3%

Explanation: In order to find the mass percent of hydrogen in this compound, you must determine how many grams of hydrogen you'd get in 100 g of compound.

In your case, you know that an unknown mass of hydrogen reacts with 0.771 g of carbon to form 0.90 g of hydrocarbon, which is a compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen.

Use the total mass of the hydrocarbon to determine how many grams of hydrogen reacted with the carbon.

Now, if 0.90 g of this compound contain 0.129 g of hydrogen, it follows that 100 g of this compound will contain.

So, if 100 g of this compound contain 14.33 g of hydrogen, it follows that the mass percent of hydrogen is 14.3%

Hope this Helps! Have A WONDERFUL Day! :)

Help please

Explanation:

1. Cross-pollination between true-breeding plant with green pods and true-breeding plant with yellow pods.

2.The yellow pods do not appear because the heterozygous dominant for the green pods. So the green is dominant while the yellow is recessive. So the green is what comes out has the result..

Where are the alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the halogens, and the noble gases located on the periodic table?

ivolga24 [154]

The Alkali Metals- (Group 1A)can be found (excluding hydrogen) in the first column of the periodic table. They all have 1 valence electron and tend to form +1 cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals.

The Alkali Earth Metals: (Group 2A) can be found in the second column/group on the periodic table. These elements form +2 positively charged cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals. They also all have 2 valence electrons.

The Halogens: are the elements that make up the second to last group on the periodic table. These elements include Chlorine, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine. These elements have 7 valence electrons. The usually form a -1 charged anion when forming ionic bonds with metals.

The Noble gases: the very last group on the periodic table. All these elements have 8 valance electrons. Due to the octet rule these atoms are already very stable and rarely react with other elements.
