Not be soluble in water

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A substance in which bond forming between the combining atoms is due to the sharing of electrons is known as a covalent bond.

For example, bond present in a Cl_{2} molecule is a covalent bond.

Some covalent bonds are non-polar in nature whereas water is a polar solvent. As it is known that like dissolves like.  

Therefore, covalent molecules will not be soluble in water as water is a polar molecule.

Thus, we can conclude that if a substance is covalent, then it likely will not be soluble in water.

Represent the formation of cations for the following metal atoms using electron dot structures. (a) Al (b) Sr (c) Ba​
vagabundo [1.1K]

the formation of cations by using electron dot structures are :

a) Al

.

Al .    losing the three valence electrons makes the Al³⁺

.

b) Sr :  

  Sr :  losing the two valence electrons makes Sr²⁺

c) Ba

: Ba , losing the two valence electrons makes it Ba²⁺

A Lewis electron dot diagram is a representation of the valence electrons of an atom that employments specks around the image of the element. The number of dots equals the number of valence electrons within the molecule. These dots are arranged to the right and left and over and underneath the symbol, with no more than two dots on a side. Cations are the positive ions shaped by the loss of one or more electrons. The foremost commonly shaped cations of the representative elements are those that include the loss of all of the valence electrons.

Which is the average kinetic energy of the individual particles of a substance?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: Temperature

Explanation: Temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy of particles in an object. The hotter the substance, higher is the average kinetic energy of its constituent particles. When we heat a substance, the particles that constitute the substance gain some energy and begin to move faster.
