Answer:

MgCl2

Explanation:

Lattice energy will be higher on ion with higher charge, or smaller size. A higher charge means it will have a stronger force. Smaller size ion will have less distance.  

Magnesium has +2 charge and located in the third row, make it strongest of these three. Natrium will be the second strongest even though its charge is +1, the same as Kalium. Natrium has smaller size as it is on the third row, compared to Kalium that was in the fourth row.

Answer: If two positive charges interact, their forces are directed against each other. The two charges repel each other.

Explanation: The same occurs with two negative charges, because their respective forces also act in opposite directions.) The electric field and resulting forces produced by two electrical charges of the same polarity.

Good luck luv.

What mass of potassium iodide is needed to prepare 5.60 L of a 1.13 M solution
MrMuchimi
Given that the question gives us concentration (M) and volume, we can use these so get moles. remember that Molarity (M)= mol/ Liters, so if we want the moles, then

moles= M x L

moles= 1.13 x 5.60= 6.33 moles KI

now to get the mass in grams, we need the molar mass of potassium iodide (KI) which can be determined using the periodic table and add the masses of each atom.

molar mass KI= 39.1 + 127= 166.1 g/mol

6.33 mol (166 g/ 1 mol)= 1050 grams KI

Why are hydrophobic molecules such as fats and oils unable to dissolve in watery solutions?
Maru [420]
Hydrophobic mplecules are unable to fissolve in watery solution becuse they dislike water.

Hydro= water
-phobic= fear

Hydrophobic= fear of water, or disliking water
*Think of it like this:
when you mix oil and water, do they mix, or does oil float at the top?

If your reply is "oil float to the top", then you're right. Oil and water DOES NOT mix together. Hope that help!
