Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.
To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.
Answer:
C. 1 cubic foot of loose sand
Explanation:
For many objects having equal volume , surface area will be maximum
of the object which has spherical shape .
But when a sphere is broken into tiny small spheres , total surface area of all the small spheres will be more than surface area of big sphere .
Hence among the given option , surface area of loose sand will have greatest surface area . Loose sand is equivalent to small spheres .
Answer:n = PV/RT = 0.923 atm x 0.250 L / (0.082057 x 290.75 K)
. n = 0.00967. mole 0.00967 mole x 6.22x10^23 molecules/mole = 6.02x10^21 molecules of gas
Explanation:
A) mass / volume = density
m/6.00cm3 = 13.5939g/cm3
m = 13.5939g/cm3 • 6.00cm3
m = 81.6g
B) mass / volume = density
m/25.0cm3 = 0.702g/cm3
m = 0.702cm3 • 25.0g/cm3
m = 17.6g
1mL = 1cm3
Answer:
Explanation:
The covalent bond is the chemical bond between atoms where electrons are shared, forming a molecule. Covalent bonds are established between non-metallic elements, such as hydrogen H, oxygen O and chlorine Cl. These elements have many electrons in their outermost level (valence electrons) and have a tendency to gain electrons to acquire the stability of the electronic structure of noble gas.
The covalent bond between two atoms can be polar or nonpolar. If the atoms are equal, the bond will be nonpolar (since no atom attracts electrons more strongly). But, if the atoms are different, the bond will be polarized towards the most electronegative atom, because it will be the atom that attracts the electron pair with more force. Then it will be polar.
It can occur in a molecule that the bonds are polar and the molecule is nonpolar. This occurs because of the geometry of the molecule, which causes them to cancel the different equal polar bonds of the molecule.
In carbon tetrachloride the bonds are polar, but the tetrahedral geometry of the molecule causes all four dipoles to cancel out and the molecule to be apolar.
