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.

Characteristics of an atom
Doss [256]

Answer:

It is composed of protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge. Protons, neutrons, and the electrons surrounding them are long-lived particles present in all ordinary, naturally occurring atoms. Other subatomic particles may be found in association with these three types of particles.

Explanation:

Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).

jeka94

Answer:

0.875 time.

Explanation:

The length of plastic water bottles are bought in the United States every day = (the no. of plastic water bottles are bought every day)(length of each bottle) = (140.0 million bottle)(0.25 m) = 35.0 million meter.

The length of the equator of the earth = 40.0 million meter.

∴ The times can the Earth's equator be circled by a line of plastic bottles used in the United States every day = (The length of plastic water bottles are bought in the United States every day)/(The length of the equator of the earth) = (35.0 million meter)/(40.0 million meter) = 0.875 times.
