Answer: C. The hydrogen atoms have partial positive charges.

Explanation: The solubility of substances is governed by: Like dissolves like, which states that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and non polar compounds are soluble in non polar solvents.

Water being polar in nature dissolves NaCl by getting between the oppositely charged ions of solute and thus decreasing the forces of attraction between the ions. The positively charged Na^+ ions are attracted to positive pole of water which is hydrogen and the negatively charged Cl^- is attracted to negative pole of water which is oxygen.

What type of lens is shown -covex lens<br> -this isnt a lens<br> concave lens
sleet_krkn [62]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Lens and Ray Optics.

We must understand the Concept that,

1.) When a beam of parallel light pass through a Convex lens, all the rays get deviated and converges to a special point at the axis that is a Focus.

2.) When a beam of light passes through the Concave lens,the light beams diverge from one another forming a virtual focus in the primary side of lens,

Hence the above given diagram beam rays are diverging, it is a CONCAVE LENS

answer is C.) Concave lens
