Answer:

C. Grinding the solute down into tiny particles.

Explanation:

The dissolution of a solute has something to do with particle size. The size of solute particles usually determines how quickly a solute dissolves in a solvent. When large solute particles are introduced into the solvent, the large solute particles do not easily interact with solvent particles hence preventing easy dissolution in the solvent.

However, when the solute is ground into tiny particles, smaller solute particles interact more effectively with solvent particles hence dissolution is faster.

Therefore, tiny solute particles will dissolve faster in a solvent than a lump of solute. Summarily, small particle size enhances dissolution of a solute in the appropriate solvent.

RSB [31]

To separate oil from water, add a solution of soluble ionic salt to the solution. Distillation, which involves boiling and condensing the water, is another option, as well as partially freezing the oil and water combination and discarding one-fourth to one-third of the unfrozen water.

How many moles of aluminum are needed to make 9 moles of molecular hydrogen? given the reaction: 2 al + 6 hcl → 2 alcl3 + 3h2 6

sergiy2304 [10]

1) Chemical equation

2Al + 6 HCl ---> 2Al Cl3 + 3 H2

2) molar ratios

2 mol Al : 3 moles H2

3) Proportion

2 mol Al / 3mol H2 = x / 9 mol H2

4) Solve for x

x = 9 mol H2 * 2 mol Al / 3 mol H2 = 6 mol Ag

Answer: 6 moles
