The correct answer is C. The water is the solvent because the green pellets dissolved in it.

Explanation:

In solutions, the are two substances involved, the solvent and the solute. The solvent is usually a liquid substance; additionally, the solvent dissolves another substance, which is known as the solute. For example, if you dissolve a spoon of salt in a glass of water, the solute is the salt which is the substance dissolved and the solvent is the water because the solute is dissolved in it. According to this, in the case presented the water is the solvent because the green pellets which are the solute dissolve in it.

Main advantages of DDT are the insecticide property and the knoledge about its chemical synthesis.

Explanation:

At that time in 1939 it was discovered that DDT have insecticide properties. It is a useful property because it allows inhibition of insects populations in large areas. Killing insects will reduce the diseases transmitted by them as typhus and malaria. More over you prevent the destruction of the agricultural crops by the harmful insects.

However the synthesis of the molecule was known way back in 1874. From that time it was plenty of time in which chemistry knowledge evolved so the synthesis at kilograms scale was implemented. High quantities of DDT molecule become available for the market so that in 1945 was available as agricultural insecticide.

It was discovered that DDT have bad effects for human health and also over time some insects developed resistance and their were not affected anymore by the molecule.

You may find the chemical structure of DDT in the attached figure.

Based on your answer in part B, arrange the five elements in order of their reactivity. Drag the most reactive element to the to

amm1812

Answer: Order of the elements from most reactive to least reactive is:

Mg > Zn > Fe > H > Cu

Explanation: Reactivity of the elements is the tendency of the elements to loose or gain electrons with ease.

As, all the given elements are metals, so the metals which will loose electrons easily will be more reactive. To study the reactivity of metals, we use reactivity series.

The metals which are more reactive are placed on the top of the reactivity series and which are less reactive are placed at the bottom.

Hence, the order of the elements from most reactive to least reactive is:

Mg > Zn > Fe > H > Cu

Reactivity series is attached below.
