<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Ions from the solute have a strong attraction to the polar solvent

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>When sodium is added to water, the sodium ions Na+ are attracted to the oxygen side of the water molecules, while chloride ions Cl- are attracted to the positively charged hydrogen side of water molecule.</u></em>
  • This causes sodium ion to split in water and dissolve into separate sodium ions and chloride ions.
  • The process can be represented by this equation.

  NaCl(s) --> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Consider the reaction H2(g) + I2(g) &lt;---&gt; HI(g) with an equilibrium constant of 46.3 and a reaction quotient of 525. Which
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The equilibrium will shift to the left to favor the reactants.

Explanation:

Remember that the reaction quotient (Qc) is derived from initial concentrations of reactants and products. Since Qc is greater than Kc, this means that initial concentrations are heavily impacted by a high product concentration ([HI]). Therefore, the reverse reaction will occur and actually create more reactants again ([H2] and [I2]). Thus, the answer is that the equilibrium will shift to the left side to favor the reactants.
