Is C8H18 an electrolyte or non-electrolyte

C₈H₁₈ is a non-electrolyte

Why?

Electrolytes are substances that dissociate into ions when dissolved in water. In order to do that, they need to have bonds that are polar enough to be able to dissociate, and the ions formed need to be soluble in water.

C₈H₁₈ is a compound that has a low electronegativity difference between its atoms, making it to be a covalent compound where electrons are shared, and making it non-polar, and difficult to dissociate. Thus, it is a non-electrolyte.

One possible structure for C₈H₁₈ is attached below. It's called octane.

Have a nice day!

Particles that are smaller and have ____ generally dissolve faster.(1 point)
saw5 [17]

Answer:

For many solids dissolved in liquid water, the solubility increases with temperature. The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperatures allows the solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions.

Draw the Lewis structure for the Se and 2 H atoms.
fomenos
When  drawing lewis dot  diagram  structure  we  consider the  number  of  valence electrons  of  the atom.Se  has  six valence electrons since  it  is  in  group  six thus  it Lewis  dot diagram  is  as  follows
       ..
     : Se:
Hydrogen  is  in  group  one  hence  has  one  valence  electron.The  lewis dot  diagram  for  2H is  therefore

Imporance of mixture in our daily life​
garri49 [273]

Answer:A mixture is a mechanical combination of several elements or compounds. Mixtures are used in cooking, chemical manufacturing, and a lot of other processes. A good mixture with the materials evenly distributed facilitates a good after mixture process. That might be a chemical reaction or a great cake. One mixture that we see the results of a lot is the mixture of water, gravel, and Portland cement that, after a good mix, becomes concrete. Other mixtures might include the various plastics and epoxies that require two or more parts to become a finished product. There are so many possible mixtures out there I’d suggest chemical engineering books , chemistry books in general, cook books, books on construction processes, and many other possible sources of mixtures and the results of using them.
