Explanation:

Once solid ammonium nitrate interacts with water, the molecules of polar water intermingle with these ions and attract individual ions from the structure of the lattice, that actually will break down. E.g;-NH4NO3(s) — NH4+(aq)+ NO3-(aq) To split the ionic bonds that bind the lattice intact takes energy that is drained from the surroundings to cool the solution.

Some heat energy is produced once the ammonium and nitrate ions react with the water molecules (exothermic reaction), however this heat is far below that is needed by the H2O molecules to split the powerful ionic bonds in the solid ammonium nitrate.

Hence, we can say that the dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water is highly endothermic reaction.

What are some pros and cons of endoskeletons and exoskeletons
xenn [34]
Endoskeleton
Pros: bones do not get broken so easily
If bones broken, can heal more quick since they are inside with good blood and nutrient supply

Cons: flesh can easily get damage
no shedding of endoskeletons, so no new skeleton cannot if injuried.

Change those up for exoskeletons.. pros for cons and cons for pros

4. It is desired to prepare 0.5 L of a 0.1 M solution of NaCl
vazorg [7]

4) 0.05 L of the stock solution must be taken.

5) The osmotic pressure would be 12.23 atm

<h3>Miscellaneous calculations</h3>

4) Using the dilution equation: m1v1=m2v2

   m1 = 1M, m2 = 0.1M, v2 = 0.5L

      v1 = m2v2/m1 = 0.1 x 0.5/1 = 0.05 L

5) Using the formula: osmotic pressure = icRT

 Since sucrose does not ionize in water,  i = 1

  C = 0.5

  R = 0.0821

  T = 298

  Osmotic pressure = 1 x 0.5 x 0.0821 x 298 = 12.23 atm
