Answer:

D) NaO2CC6H4CO2K

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent and tends to solvate polar molecules. This allows solute molecules to interact with the solvent and that is why the solubility of a molecule in water increases with the increase in its polarity. So, the salt of phthalic acid is more soluble in water than phthalic acid itself. Although the monosodium and monopotassium salts are also more soluble than phthalic acid, the dialkali phthalate salt (NaO2CC6H4CO2K) is the most soluble due to the highest polarity.

In redox half-reactions, a more positive standard reduction potential means I. the oxidized form has a higher affinity for elect
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The 1st and 4th options are correct

I.the oxidized form has a higher affinity for electrons

IV. the greater the tendency for the oxidized form to accept electrons

Explanation:

Half reaction can be described as the oxidation or reduction reaction in a redox reaction.it is In the redox rection there is a change in the oxidation states of Chemical species involved. the oxidized form in the redox has a higher affinity for electrons and the greater the tendency for the oxidized form to accept electrons.

Standard reduction potential which is also referred to as standard cell potential can be described as the potential difference that exist between cathode and anode of the cell. In the standard reduction potential most times the species will be reduced which is usually analysed in a reduction half reaction.

(Standard Hydrogen Electrode) is utilized when determining the Standard reduction or potentials of a chemical specie. this is because of Hydrogen having zero reduction and oxidation potentials, as a result of this a measured potential of any species is compared with that of Hydrogen, the difference helps to know the potential reduction of that particular specie.
