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: In photosynthesis, producers combine carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce oxygen and sugar (their food). Other organisms get energy by eating producers. ... It cannot directly use the Sun's energy to make food. As a consumer, it has to eat— or, consume— other organisms for energy.
Explanation: Thats how both producers and consumers get energy
The biological compounds that are nonpolar and insoluble in water are lipids. It is a group of molecules that are naturally occurring which includes sterols, waxes, fats, fat-soluble vitamins and the like. These molecules are nonpolar molecules so basically the cannot be dissolved in a polar solvent like water.
Answer:
-608KJ/mol
Explanation:
3 C2H2(g) -> C6H6(g)
ΔHrxn = ΔHproduct - ΔHreactant
ΔHrxn= ΔHC6H6 - 3ΔHC2H2
ΔHrxn = 83 - 3(230)
ΔHrxn = -608
