Mnenie [13.5K]
The answer to this question would be D. Hydrophilic.

The word hydrophilic mean attracted by water. That means the molecule has a force to attract water molecule, thus be able to dissolve in water.  The polarity of the molecule would determine whether a molecule hydrophilic or not.
Its opposite would be hydrophobic which the molecule can't dissolve in water.  One example of this would be oil or fat. That is why sometimes it is called lipophilic too.

4. A student started with a 0.032 g sample of copper which he took through the series of reactions described in this experiment.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Y=48.6\%

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can consider the following chemical reaction for the oxidation of copper which only occurs at high temperatures:

2Cu+O_2\rightarrow 2CuO

In such a way, for 0.032 grams of copper, the following grams of copper (II) oxide (black product) are yielded:

m_{CuO}=0.032gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.546gCu} *\frac{2molCuO}{2molCu}*\frac{79.546gCuO}{1molCuO}  =0.078gCuO

Therefore, the percent yield is:

Y=\frac{0.038g}{0.078g}*100\%\\ \\Y=48.6\%

Best regards.
