The list of the answer choices is missing.

I did some research in internet and found this is the complete question, including the answer choices:

<span>Which is true about dissolving a polar substance in water?

A. The solvent particles are all nonpolar molecules.
B. The solute particles are carried into the solution.
C. The solute particles have no attraction for the solvent molecules.
D. The solute particles are very different from the solvent molecules.

The right answer is the option B. The solute particles are carried into the solution.

Let's review each choice.</span><span>

A. The solvent particles are all nonpolar molecules.

False

The solvent is water, and water is a polar solvent. This is, due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms of H and O, the bonds form dipoles (the O atoms have a partial negative charge and the H atoms have a partial positive charge). And, since the molecule is not symmetrical those dipoles yield a polar molecule.

B. The solute particles are carried into the solution.

That is true: being the solute a polar substance the negative endings of the solute  will be attracted by the partially positive H of water, and the positive endings of the solute will be attracted by the partially negative O of water, meaning that the molecules of water will surround the particles of solute.

C. The solute particles have no attraction for the solvent molecules.

As per the explanations given above this is false.

D. The solute particles are very different from the solvent molecules.

False, because the solute particles are similar to the solvente molecules in that both of them are polar.

A coefficient is a number listed before a compound or atom, telling how many of the compounds are needed so that the Law of Cons
mezya [45]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. This implies that in a chemical reaction, we can only have the same number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction equation.

If we write  4Fe2S3 it means that we have;

4 * 2 = 8 atoms of Fe

4 * 3 = 12 atoms of S

8 + 12 = 20 atoms in all

Calculate the volume of .987 mol of gas at stp will occupy
aalyn [17]
Number of moles = volume / (molar volume)
Molar volume at stp = 22.4 dm^3
Volume = no of moles × molar volume
= 0.987 × 22.4
= 22.1088 dm^3
= 22108.8 cm^3

Hope it helped!

Do you think that participation in a Supervised Agriculture Experience (SAE) prepares a student for a career in the AFN industry
irinina [24]

Answer:

The SAE curriculum includes practical farming tasks conducted outside the scheduled classroom and laboratory period by students. SAEs offer a method for students in agricultural education to gain real-world work opportunities that they are most interested in in the field of agriculture. Supervised agricultural experience is an essential component of agricultural education, and all Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (AFNR) courses are a necessary component.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since water has a chemical formula of H2O , there will be 2 moles of hydrogen in every mole of water. In one mole of water, there will exist approximately 6.02⋅1023 water molecules.
