The answer requures the application of the knowledge of electrostatics to solve the problem successfully. The solution can be found in the attachment below.
Explanation:
Electrostatic repulsion is the force between two charges having the same sign, that tends to separate them further. The force is proportional to the product of the charges, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Water<span> can </span>dissolve salt<span> because the positive part of </span>water<span> molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of </span>water<span> molecules attracts the positive sodium ions. The amount of a substance that can </span>dissolve<span> in a liquid (at a particular temperature) is called the solubility of the substance. So the solute is the salt and the solvent is the water. I believe that is correct.</span>
I'm fairly sure that is true.
