Answer:
I think the answer is boiling
Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.
To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.

There are 19.5 g Na in 71.4 g NaHCO₃
Calculate the <em>molecular mass of NaHCO₃</em>.
1 Na = 1 × 22.99 u = 22.99 u
1 H = 1 × 1.008 u = 1.008 u
1 C = 1 × 12.01 u = 12.01 u
3 O = 3 × 16.00 u = <u>48.00 u
</u>
TOTAL = 84.008 u
So, there are 22.99 g of Na in 84.008 g NaHCO₃.
∴ Mass of Na = 71.4 g NaHCO₃ × (22.99 g Na/84.008 g NaHCO₃) = 19.5 g Na
You can know the metal with low reactivity and the metal with high reactivity from the periodic table, as in metals the Chemical reactivity increases by going down a group, because of the farther down group we go the easier of lose and gain of electrons or the easier the electrons to be given or taken, this caused the chemical reactivity be higher.
- and the chemical reactivity decreases as we go across the period because they want to give away valence electrons, they need more energy to get rid of them.
