Answer:

true

Explanation:

<em>The standard laboratory rule is to always add acids or bases to solvent and not the other way round.</em>

The dissolution of concentrated acids/bases in solvents (water) generates heat energy. Thus, if the solvent is added to them, a layer of hot weak acid or base will be formed and this will boil and spray around, causing an explosion.

On the other hand, if acid/base is added to solvents, they flow into the solvents and get diluted immediately without any boiling taking place. Hence, it is safe to add acid/base to solvents and not the other way round.

When an egg is boiled in a pot of water on the stove, there is more than one kind of heat transfer. Heat is transferred from the

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Stove → Pot = conduction, Pot → Egg = convection.

Explanation:

There are three ways in which heat is being transferred from one medium to the other and the means are; radiation, conduction and convection heat transfer.

Radiation is the process in which heat is being transferred through emission in form of electromagnetism. Conduction heat transfer Is the process in which heat is being transferred through contact that is two bodies touching each other. Convection heat transfer is the kind of heat that happens through gases.

Since the heat from the stove touching the pot is the conduction heat transfer.

After the water has been heated up, the gas from the water makes the convection heat transfer.

<h2>Question:</h2>

A solution that is able to dissolve additional solute is best described as _____.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>D.) Unsaturated </h2>

<u>Unsaturated</u> means the substance is poured into the solvent that can be dissolved. It is a solution (with less solute than the saturated solution) that completely dissolves, leaving with no remaining substances.

<h2>For example:</h2>

If you were to pour olive oil into a glass of water, it will dissolve, so it is <u>unsaturated</u>.
