Answer: Non polar solvents

Explanation:

Since with increasing the size of alkyl group hydrophobic nature increases and solubility in polar solvents decreases .

Hence Carboxylic acids with more than 10 carbon atoms, solubility is more in non polar solvents.

List the number of each type of atom on the left side of the equation 2C10H22(l)+31O2(g)→20CO2(g)+22H2O(g)
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: There are 20 carbons atoms, 62 oxygen atoms and 44 carbon atoms on the left side of the equation.

Explanation:

In the given chemical reaction:

2C_{10}H_{22}(l)+31O_2(g)\rightarrow 20CO_2(g)+22H_2O(g)

Reactants side = Left side

Number of atoms =

Coefficient × Number of atoms of an element in a unit molecular formula

Number of carbon atoms = 2 × 10 = 20

Number of oxygen atoms = 31 × 2 = 62

Number of hydrogen atoms =  2 × 22 = 44

What kind of chemical bond is an insulator most likely to have? A. covalent bonds B. ionic bonds C. hydrogen bonds D. metallic b
mars1129 [50]

Answer is:  A. covalent bonds.

Insulator most likely has covalent bonds, because it must have low electrical conductivity.

1) Substances with covalent bond not conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they not have free ions or electrons.  

2) Substances with ionic bond conduct an electric current in liquid, but not in solid state, because in liquids ions are mobile, contrary to solids where ions are fixed.

3) Substances with metallic bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons.
