False

Explanation:

Electron affinity is negative when energy is absorbed and it is positive when energy is released.

Electron affinity is defined as the energy released in adding an electron to a neutral atom in the gas phase.

It is a measure of the readiness of an atom to gain an electron.

In a reaction where energy is released, electron affinity is usually positive. These reactions are called exothermic reactions.

Endothermic reactions in which energy is absorbed have negative electron affinity values.

Water vapor is condensed steam. <br><br> True <br> False
adelina 88 [10]

False, because water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor, is the gaseous phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Unlike other forms of water, water vapor is invisible.

The lab procedure mentions that not all of the oxone may dissolve after being added to the water because the water may be satura
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is (C) There are more solute molecules than water molecules.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved or disintegrated into the solvent. When or if the ozone  stops being dissolved in the water, it implies that the water has already taken on more ozone molecules than it can contain, meaning there are more solute molecules (ozone molecules) than there are solvent molecules (water molecules).
