That would be correct as stated.

Answer:- "Like dissolves like." It means, a polar compound is soluble in polar solvent and non polar compound is soluble in non polar solvent.

Mineral oil is non polar in nature as it has longest carbon chain. Hexane is also non polar solvent. Being non polar, mineral oil is soluble in hexane.

Ethanol is a polar solvent and so mineral oil is insoluble in it.

For the following chemical equation.
kotegsom [21]

Sr is the limiting reactant.

Given the reaction equation;

2Sr + O2 (g) → 2SrO

2 moles of Sr reacts with 1 mole of O2

2 moles Sr will react with x mole of O2

x = 2 ×1/2

x = 1 mole of O2

Since we have more O2 than required, it is the reactant in excess, hence Sr is the limiting reactant.

Do you think thermal expansion affects all states of matter or just the solid? Explain your thinking.
torisob [31]

Answer:

All three states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) expand when heated. The atoms themselves do not expand, but the volume they take up does.

When a solid is heated, its atoms vibrate faster about their fixed points. The relative increase in the size of solids when heated is therefore small. Metal railway tracks have small gaps so that when the sun heats them, the tracks expand into these gaps and don’t buckle.

Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids. This is the principle behind liquid-in-glass thermometers. An increase in temperature results in the expansion of the liquid which means it rises up the glass.

Molecules within gases are further apart and weakly attracted to each other. Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

However, gases that are contained in a fixed volume cannot expand - and so increases in temperature result in increases in pressure.:
