Mary could do two types of experiments

<em>Type 1</em>. She could <em>hold the cation constant and vary the anion</em>.

She could try solutions of NaCl, NaBr, NaI, Na₂SO₄, Na₃PO₄, etc.

These experiments would tell her which <em>anions</em> are the best conductors.

<em>Type </em>2. She could <em>hold the anion constant and vary the cation</em>.

She could try solutions of NaNO₃, KNO₃, Mg(NO₃)₂, Ca(NO₃)₂, Al(NO₃)₃, etc.

These experiments would tell her which <em>cations</em> are the best conductors.

Suppose that NaCl is added to hexane (C6H14) instead of water. Which of the following intermolecular forces will exist in the sy
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Ion-ion force between Na+ and Cl− ions

London dispersion force between two hexane molecules

Explanation:

"Ion-dipole force between Na+ ions and a hexane molecule " does not exist since hexane has only non-polar bonds and therefore no dipole.

"Ion-ion force between Na+ and Cl− ions " exists since both are ions.

"Dipole-dipole force between two hexane molecules " does not exist since hexane molecules do not have a dipole.

"Hydrogen bonding between Na+ ions and a hexane molecule " does not exist since the hydrogen in the hydrogen bond must be bonded directly to an electronegative atom, which hexane does not have since it is a hydrocarbon.

"London dispersion force between two hexane molecules" exist since hexane is a molecular compound.

How many H2O molecules are in 183.2 grams of H20 gas?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: There are 61.24 \times 10^{23} molecules present in 183.2 grams of H_{2}O gas.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 183.2 g

Number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass.

As molar mass of water is 18 g/mol. Therefore, moles of H_{2}O are calculated as follows.

Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{183.2 g}{18 g/mol}\\= 10.17 mol

According to the mole concept, there are 6.022 \times 10^{22} molecules present in one mole of a substance.

Hence, molecules present in 10.17 moles are calculated as follows.

10.17 mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\\= 61.24 \times 10^{23}

Thus, we can conclude that there are 61.24 \times 10^{23} molecules present in 183.2 grams of H_{2}O gas.

Name 3 things that rainforest and deserts have in common
Arturiano [62]
Some similarities between deserts and rainforests are that they support complex ecosystems, are powered by the sun/photosynthetic plants, are dangerous/mostly uninhabitable for humans, due to both conditions and wildlife, and are found mostly in the tropics

olasank [31]

Answer:

An experiment is a research method performed within a completely controlled environment that uses groups of individuals ( subjects), one of which the factors being tested are not spplied on, an independent factor of the hypothesys ( to be tested ), for example the resilience of a group of teenagers) and a dependant factor that is applied to check how it varyes depending on the tested factor ( for example, the most challanging experience of their generation)
