Answer:

When sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is added to water (H2O), heat will be released.

Explanation:

NaOH+H2O= Na+ and OH- ions.

Sodium hydroxide is a base and can disassociate in water.

The heat released is due to the OH- ions stability. Is the result of the chemical species being brought to a lower energy state. Also as it is a very strong phenomenon, it can be used as a moisture absorber.

I hope it helps!

1. NaOH dissociates in water.
2. NaOH is a base.

That's what I get from that. NaOH must dissociate in water to raise the concentration of anything, and it must be basic, otherwise it would raise the hydronium concentration or nothing at all.

The "Bateman gradient" states that males have more variable reproductive success than do females, since males can mate with many

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

False

The Given statement of False. As The "Bateman gradient" states that males have more variable reproductive success than do females, since males can mate with many females while females are limited by the number of eggs they produce.

In nature why do sediments settle from water? The water must blank or blank

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

These benefits occur due to sediment deposition – when suspended particles settle down to the bottom of a body of water. This settling often occurs when water flow slows down or stops, and heavy particles can no longer be supported by the bed turbulence.
