In a solution the solute is the substance present in the greatest amount true or false

Chemistry
2 answers:
emmasim [6.3K]4 years ago

Answer: False

Explanation:

Binary Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two components called as solute and solvent.

Solute is the component which is present in smaller proportion and is solid for solid in liquid solution and solvent is the component which is present in larger proportion and is liquid for solid in liquid solution.

For example: NaCl in water will have NaCl as solute and will be lesser in amount and water will be solvent and will be greater in amount.

Thus the statement that in a solution the solute is the substance present in the greatest amount is false.

Solute is something that is being dissolved { ex : sugar , salt} 

Solvent is something that has ability to dissolve things { ex : water}

False because the solvent is present in larger amounts...

Which statement correctly describes the actual yield and the theoretical yield of a reaction? (1 point)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Group 17 is called the halogen family, and the group to its right is called the noble gases. How are these elements alike and ho
Vesnalui [34]

Explanation:

The halogen family and noble gases are similar in just one particular way, they are groups of non-metals. All members of these two groups are categorized as non-metals.

Here are some of the differences between them;

  • Halogens have 7 electrons in their outermost shell whereas noble gases have 8 electrons in theirs.
  • Halogens are highly reactive elements, noble gases are non-reactive.
  • Halogens are made up of electronegative elements where as noble gases are neither electropositive nor electronegative.

Given the chemical formulas of the following compounds, name each compound and state the rules you used to determine each name.
Svetlanka [38]
When naming an ionic compound, write the name of the cation, which is the metal first. Then, write the name of the anion, which is the nonmetal. However, you remove the last 2-3 letters and replace suffixes. 

1. RbF --> Rubidium Fluoride
Change fluorine to fluoride
2. CuO --> Copper (II) Oxide
Change oxygen to oxide. Oxide has a charge of -2. Since no subscripts are written, it means they have the same opposite charge. So, we use Copper (II).
