Which interactions and processes contribute to the dissolution of ionic compounds in water?

Tanya [424]3 years ago

Explanation:

Polarity is defined as the development of partial charges on the atoms of a molecule. In a water molecule, there are hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

Due to the difference in electronegativity of both hydrogen and oxygen atom there is development of partial positive charge on hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on oxygen atom.  

So, when bond between hydrogen and oxygen will break down then it will form hydrogen ions (H^{+}) and oxygen ions (O^{2-}).

Ion-dipole interactions are defined as the interactions that occur when an ion interacts with the dipole of a molecule.

When an electron is added to a neutral atom to convert it into a negative ion then the amount of change taking place in its energy is known as electron affinity.

So, oxygen atom has an affinity towards cations and hydrogen atom has an affinity for anions.

Thus, we can conclude that following interactions and processes contribute to the dissolution of ionic compounds in water:

1. Affinity of oxygen towards cations

2. Ion–dipole interactions

4. Hydration

6. Affinity of hydrogen towards anions

Stels [109]
A mixture of sand and table salt can be separated by filtration because the substances in the mixture differ in solubility. Because sand and table salt have a different ability to dissolve they can easily be separated. What can be done to separate this mixture is to add water to it and stir it thoroughly. The salt will easily dissolve in water while the sand will stay insoluble. The filtration of this mixture will result in salt being drained off with water while only the sand will remain.

Answer:

c

Explanation:

we have only distance vs time graph so c is the right answer that cart is moving with constant speed of 0.5m/s

confirmed

first calculate distance which is from 2 to 5.5

5.5-2=3.5

apply the formula of velocity

v=s/t

v=3.5/7=0.5

The point at which one drop of base turns the acid indicator into a pink color that lasts for thirty seconds in doing titration is called the end point or the equivalence point.

End point or the equivalence point is the one responsible for the pink color that lasts for thirty seconds.
