Matt, Erin, and Lauren were having a challenge to see who could dissolve a one-pound cube of sugar the quickest. Matt puts his s

Generally speaking, <u>there are three factors</u> that affect how fast a solid dissolves in a liquid:

  1. Stirring (this is also called convection)
  2. Temperature (the higher the temperature the faster the solid dissolves)
  3. Surface area (the higher the surface area the faster the solid dissolves)

Matt uses the first one, while Erin uses the first two. In order to win, Lauren has to use all three, that is: Heat up the water, stirr it with a wooden spoon, and break up the cube of sugar into smaller portions (or a fine dust).

HOW TO KNOW THAT A BOND IS IONIC OR COVELENT BY JUST LOOKING AT IT ?
adelina 88 [10]
Ionic bonds are made up of a metal and a nonmetal elements while covalent bonds are are made up of two metal. So, you can just look at the periodic table and identify which compounds have two metals and which have one metal and one nonmetal. Also, those compounds with high electronegativity difference are very likely to be ionic while the opposite is covalent. HOWEVER, some compounds can be both covalent and ionic. For instance, if HCI gas is at higher temperatures, then it is ionic while it would be covalent at room temp. 

Hope I've helped.

Reducing agent is an compound/atom, that loses an electron and is oxidized.

0.........+I.............+II............0
Ca + 2HCl ----> CaCl₂ + H₂

Calcium is oxidized --- it's reducing agent (reductant).
Hydrogen is reduced --- HCl is oxidizing agent.
