Answer:

Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water

Explanation:

We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.

Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.

Considering the given oxides carefully,

  • SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.

  • Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.

  • MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.

  • Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.

  • N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.

How does solubility differ between small versus large carbohydrates? Explain.
EleoNora [17]

Answer with Explanation:

Small and large carbohydrates have<em> diverse structural properties</em>. Such property allow them to have <u>different solubility.</u>

Solubility is a chemical property of a substance that allows it to dissolve in a given solvent.

Carbohydrates are made up of "monosaccharides." These are simple sugars and are considered small carbohydrates. On the contrary, "polysaccharide" is an example of a large carbohydrate.<em><u> Monosaccharides are soluble in water</u></em><em> </em>while<em><u> many polysaccharides are not soluble in water.</u></em>

The high solubility of monosaccharides is mainly due to the presence of hydroxide (OH) groups. These groups are always ready to bond with water (H₂O). Many polysaccharides are not soluble in water because of <em>intermolecular interactions</em> that prevents it from binding with water. Its dissolution process is different when compared to the smaller molecules.

So, this explains the answer.

A sample of carbon-12 has a mass of 6.00 g. How many atoms of carbon-12 are in the sample?
Bingel [31]
Carbon molar mass=12
carbon mass in the above question =6
mole=number of atoms/6.02x10²³
6/12= number of atoms/6.02x10²³
number of atoms=1/2 x6.02x10²³
number of atoms= 6.02 x10²³/2
number of atoms=3.01x10²³
