Why do polar substances dissolve in water?

Chemistry
2 answers:
SIZIF [17.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Polar molecules have " dipole dipole" force of attraction between the molecules consisting of partially positive ion and partially negetive ion.

Water is the best example of polar molecule, having strong "hydrogen bonding" between the atoms of Oxygen (-ve) and Hydrogen(+ve).

When any polar substance dissolved in water, it break down into +ve and -ve ions.

Because of the dipole dipole attraction polar molecules are soluble in water.

How many grams of aluminum will be deposited by 0.1F? (Al=27) a.0.3g b. 0.9. c. 9.0g. d. 2.7g<br>​
andrezito [222]

Based on the charge on the aluminium ion, 0.9 g of aluminium are deposited by 0.1 F of electricity.

<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>

Electrolysis is the decomposition of a substance known as an electrolyte when electric current is passed through it.

The mass and hence moles an electrolyte deposited when current is passed through it depends on the charge on the ion.

Aluminium ion has a charge of +3 and requires 3F of electricity to deposit 1 mole or 27 g of aluminium

0.1 F will discharge = 0.1/3 × 27 g of aluminium

mass of aluminium deposited = 0.9 g of aluminium.

Therefore, 0.9 g of aluminium are deposited by 0.1 F of electricity.

A student heats 10.52 g of sodium hydrogen carbonate in a crucible until the compound completely decomposes to sodium carbonate
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

m_{Na_2CO_3}^{theoretical}=6.636gNa_2CO_3

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the decomposition of sodium hydrogen carbonate is:

2NaHCO_3(s)\rightarrow Na_2CO_3(s)+H_2O(g)+CO_2(g)

Thus, since there is a 2:1 mole ratio between the sodium hydrogen carbonate and sodium carbonate, and the molar masses are 84.01 and 105.99 g/mol respectively, we obtain the following theoretical yield:

m_{Na_2CO_3}^{theoretical}=10.52gNaHCO_3*\frac{1molNaHCO_3}{84.01gNaHCO_3}*\frac{1molNa_2CO_3}{2molNaHCO_3}  *\frac{105.99gNa_2CO_3}{1molNa_2CO_3}\\\\ m_{Na_2CO_3}^{theoretical}=6.636gNa_2CO_3

Best regards!

If a piece of aluminum with a mass of 3.99 g and a temperature of 100.0 °C is dropped
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The final temperature of the system is 27.3°C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by aluminum = 3.99 × 0.91 × (100-T)

                                     = 3.631 (100-T)

Heat gained by water = 10 × 4.184 × (T-21)

                                    = 41.84 (T-21)

As,

                                Heat gained = Heat loss

                          or, 3.631(100-T) = 41.84(T-21)

                          or,363.1 -  3.631 T = 41.84 T - 878.64)

                          or, (41.84+ 3.631) T = 878.64 +363.1

                          or  T= \frac{1241.74}{45.47}

                         or, T = 27.3°C

Hence the final temperature is 27.3°C.

A buret was improperly read to 1 decimal place giving a reading of 27.2 mL. If the actual volume is 27.26 mL, what is the percen
Nezavi [6.7K]
Percent error can be calculated by the difference of the theoretical value and the measured value divided by the theoretical value multiplied by 100 percent. 

% error = 27.26 - 27.2 / 27.26 x100
% error = 0.22%

A value close to zero would mean that the measured value is more or less near the actual value.

Use the periodic table to select the element that best fits each of the following descriptions. which element below has properti
xenn [34]

Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.
