Answer:

A. Vegetable oil

Explanation:

Solubility is determined by the principle , "like dissolves like" .

i.e. , if a compound is polar then it will dissolve in a polar compound only , and

if a compound is non - polar then it will dissolve in a non - polar compound only .

Hence , from the question ,

A. Vegetable oil is a non polar compound ,

B. Polar compound

C. ionic compound , is a polar compound .

Since , wate is polar in nature , hence it will get dissolved in a only polar compound ,

Therefore ,

Water will not get dissolved in vegetable oil , being it a non - polar compound .

What is buffers and mention its importance?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Buffer is the chemical substance that addition of acids and bases, maintaining constant environment,its called Buffer.

Explanation:

  • Buffers are use in the system to maintain the value of pH, and the contain the pH value is not to change.
  • Buffer maintain the body of pH for the optimal activity,and they are solution of pH constant.
  • Buffer in used in the lab and that to maintain growth of the micro tissues and the culture media.
  • Buffer are used in maintain necessary optimal reaction activity,determine the indicator of solution with pH.
  • Buffer capacity is that concentration to the buffering agent, is the very small increase,buffer capacity to the pH is 32% , of the maximum value of pH.
  • Buffers in a acid regions to the desired of that value to the particular buffer agent.
  • Buffers can be made from that a mixture of the base and acid, buffer can be a wide range of the obtained.
  • Buffers that the pH  calculation and they required to performed in the critic acid that the overlap over the buffer range.

Our good friend and pseudo scientist, homer simpson, attempts to analyze 300 mg of an unknown compound containing only c and h b
iragen [17]
C_{x}H_{y} + O_{2} --\ \textgreater \  x CO_{2} + \frac{y}{2} H{2}O

540mg H_{2}O* \frac{1 mmol H_{2}O}{18 mg H_{2}O} =30 mmol H_{2}O

\\ \\30 mmolH_{2}O   -have  -  60 mmol H
\\  \\ 60 mmol H* \frac{1mg H}{1 mmol H}    =60 mg H
\\ \\300mg C_{x}H_{y} - 60 mg H= 240 mg C
\\ \\ 240 mgC* \frac{1mmol}{12mg} =20 mmol C

20 mmol C: 60 mmol H=1 mol C : 3 mol H
