<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)

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

5.6 L

Explanation:

We can apply Charles' Law here since our pressure is constant (will not change inside the refrigerator) and we are relating change in volume with change in temperature:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ where V₁ and T₁ are initial volume and temperature, and V₂ and T₂ are final volume and temperature. Let's plug in what we know and solve for the unknown:

28.0 L / 25 °C = V₂ / 5 °C => V₂ = 5.6 L

5.6 L is our new volume (at 5 °C).

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquids, molecules are held by slightly less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids.

Hence, molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other as they have more kinetic energy than the molecules of a solid.

As a result, liquids are able to occupy the shape of container in which they are placed. Also, liquids have fixed volume but no fixed shape.

Thus, we can conclude that liquids have a variable shape and a fixed volume.

This chemical reaction can also be written as

2C2H6+7O2-->4CO2+6H2O

This is a chemical reaction because reactants are converted into products. This is the combustion of ethane where ethane and oxygen have been converted into carbon dioxide and water
