Answer: option B.olive oil.

Explanation.

The general rule of thumb when you analyze the ability of a solvent to dissolve a solute is that lke dissolves like.

That means:

1) polar solvents dissolve ionic or polar solutes

2) Non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar solutes

3) Non-polar solvents do not dissolve polar and ionic solutes 

4) Polar solvents do not dissolve non-polar solutes.


There are exceptions, but the rule is applicable in here.

<span>
A. table salt: it is NaCl, a ionic compound, so the water which is a polar solvent will dissolve the table salt.

B. Olive oil: the oils are non-polar organic compounds, so it will not be dissolved in a polar solvent.

C. Vinegar: vinegar is acetic acid, which is a polar organic compound, so it will be dissolved in water.

D. Sugar: sugar (sucrose) is a polar organic compound, so it will get dissovled in water.</span>

What is the concentration (in M) of a sample of the unknown dye with an absorbance of 0.25 at 542 nm?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

Question is incomplete, so in picture 1, you have a sample of this question with the missing data.

Now, in general terms, the absorbance of a substance can be calculated using the beer's law which is the following:

A = εlc

Where:

ε: molar absortivity

l: distance of the light in solution

c: concentration of solution

However, in this case, we have a plot line and a equation for this plot, so all we have to do is replace the given data into the equation and solve for x, which is the concentration.

the equation according to the plot is:

A = 15200c - 0.018

So solving for C for an absorbance of 0.25 is:

0.25 = 15200c - 0.018

0.25 + 0.018 = 15200c

0.268 = 15200c

c = 0.268/15200

c = 1.76x10⁻⁵ M

What is subshell and why do we use it if we have main shells already
kumpel [21]
Principal shell shows the main energy level, in that there are some more energy levels. This is how the atomic structure is defined according to the Quantum Mechanical model of atom. So exactly why do subshells exist and all i don't know

"would you expect to find sodium chloride in underground rock deposits as a solid, liquid, or gas? explain."
Sophie [7]

A sodium chloride is like most of the ionic compounds existing here on earth in which they are composed of having a high melting point and by this, if found in underground rock deposits, they are usually in a form of solid.
