Hydrophobic in simple terms is the "fear" of water.
In chemistry, Ionic salts are technically hydrophilic as they will dissolve in water.
most fats and oils or triesters won't why?
salts are made from ions and their structure contain polar bonds Na+ and Cl-
Fats and oils tend to not have these.
Fats and oils contain many carbon covalent bonds which are non-polar which tend to make the molecule non-polar as a whole, therefore, it can't dissolve in water and is said to be hydrophobic.
Hope that heps :)
NB included a diagram to help.
Answer: conversion of ice to steam
Explanation: Endothermic process is one in which energy is absorbed by the system.
Conversion of ice to steam is change of solid phase to gaseous phase, thus energy is required to break the strong inter molecular forces of attraction in solids to convert it into gaseous phase.
Conversion of steam to ice, conversion of steam to water and conversion of water to ice releases energy and are examples of exothermic processes.
Answer:
A) Cations
Explanation:
a) Cations have a positive charge and are larger than their neutral counterparts!
b) Anions have a negative charge and are smaller than their neutral counterparts
c) Metals can have either a positive or negative charge making it either a cation or an anion
d) Carbon is an element and it can have a charge anywhere from +4 to -4
A good way to remember that cations are positive is to think that CATions are always PAWSitive! ^-^
Answer:
pressure
Explanation:
you have to use energy to apply pressure, so i mean....
