Answer: D. like dissolves like

Explanation:

The solubility of substances is governed by: Like dissolves like, which states that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and non polar compounds are soluble in non polar solvents.

Hydrocarbons are non polar in nature due to less difference between the electronegativities of carbon and hydrogen and thus are soluble in non polar solvents only.

Ionic compounds which are formed by elements with high electronegativity difference are polar in nature and thus dissolve in polar solvents.

Example: NaCl in water.

What neutral element has the electron configuration described by the Aufbau diagram above.​
devlian [24]

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.

Which of the following observations would indicate that a material is a pure substance?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<span>The answer to the question is the option C. it cannot be physically broken down into different types of atoms. This means that the material is an element, which is a pure substance. Because an element is a pure substance that is formed by one only type of atoms. For example, gold is an element and all its atoms are of the same type. That is also true for any of the 118 elements of the periodic table. Compounds (other kind of pure substances) can be broken down into molecules (which contain different kind of atoms, but always in the same proportion) and mixtures (non pure substances) have different kind of substances.</span>

How many significant digits are in 89015
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Total 5 significant digits.

Explanation:

Significant digits are the numbers that give a meaningful contribution. For example, digit 013 has the 2  significant digits and zero is not a significant digit because digits 1 and 3 give meaningful contribution but digit zero does not value meaningful contribution. Similarly, the 89015 has a total of 5 significant digits and these digits are the 8, 9, 0, 1,  and 5.
