Nacl is an ionic solid. the na+ and cl− ions in nacl are bonded through an electrostatic force of attraction commonly known as t

he ionic bond. water is a polar solvent. the oxygen atom, being more electronegative, attracts the electron cloud toward itself. as the electron cloud is pulled by the oxygen atom, it carries a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen atoms carry a partial positive charge. this partial separation of charges in the water molecule makes it polar. which intermolecular forces contribute to the dissolution of nacl in water?

NaCl is the poster-compound for ionic bonding. The bonds in NaCl have approximately 70% ionic character, making the bonds highly polar. It's an exaggeration to say that there are real ions in NaCl with +1 and -1 charges, but the real charges of Na and Cl are certainly close to the expected +1 and -1, correspondingly. Since NaCl is as a network of extremely charged particles, and not separate molecules, NaCl does not display intermolecular forces. 

Water molecules conversely do display London dispersion forces, Keesom forces and hydrogen bonding. 

The polar water molecules are involved to the polarized Na and Cl atoms. This is what permits NaCl(s) to dissolve and ionize in water. Consequently, the kind of attraction accountable for the ionization of NaCl is ion-dipole attraction.

The ion - dipole attractions between the Na+ and the polar water molecule and the ion - dipole attractions between the Cl- and the polar water molecule contribute to the dissolution of sodium chloride in water.

Further Explanation:

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. The electrostatic attraction between its positive charged ions (Na+) and negatively charged ions (Cl-) holds the crystal lattice together.

Water is a polar molecule. Polar molecules have a net dipole moment due to the differences in electronegativity of the atoms in the molecule and the geometry of the molecule as well. Since oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, it pulls the shared electrons towards itself. The part of the molecule where oxygen is, gains a partial negative charge, since the shared electrons spend more time in this region than near hydrogen. The hydrogen side of the molecule, then becomes mostly electron-deficient giving it a partial positive charge.

In the dissolution of sodium chloride in water, the ion - ion attractions of the salt is weakened as it absorbs heat. Then, polar water molecules start to surround individual Na+ or Cl- ions by orienting themselves accordingly: the partial negative side of water are attracted to the Na+ and the H side of the water molecule is attracted to the Cl- ions. With enough water molecules surrounding the each ion, the ion - dipole attractions formed overcome the ion - ion attraction of the salt.

Which change happens when a fan is turned on?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

D. Electrical energy is changed into mechanical energy

Explanation:

When you turn on the fan, the electricity that is given through the power outlet allows the fan to have the available energy to spins the fan blades. By the fan's blades spinning, this is a movement that can be described as mechanical energy.

5. Which of the following has variable composition<br>A. Water<br>B. sugar<br>C, soil<br>D. Salt​
erica [24]

Answer:

C. Soil

Explanation:

The choice with variable composition is the soil. Soil have many different composition.

  • Soil is made up of minerals, organic matter , water and soil air.
  • Soil minerals are derived from weathered bedrock materials that have been broken down into small pieces.
  • Organic matter is derived from dead and decaying materials from plants and animals.
  • All these materials combine together to form a soil.

The solubility of copper chloride at 20 °C is 73 g/100 g of water. Kiera adds 100 g of copper chloride to 100 g of water and sti
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

m_{undissolved}=27g

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information of the solubility of copper chloride, as the maximum amount of this salt one can dissolve without having a precipitate, we infer that since just 73 grams are actually dissolved, the following amount will remain solid as a precipitate:

m_{undissolved}=100g-73g\\\\m_{undissolved}=27g

Best regards!
