Answer:

The Correct increasing order of solubility is O2 < Br2 < LiCl < Methanol (CH3OH)

Explanation:

Solubility of compounds or molecules are solely dependent on its inter molecular forces or bonding present in them.

Molecules with Hydrogen bonding usually very soluble in water. Ionic compounds are also very soluble in water because they form ions in solutions. Molecules that possess van der waal forces are usually insoluble in water because they are non-polar.

  • O2 (oxygen gas) and Br2 (bromine gas) have van der waal forces in them. Van der waal forces are stronger in Br2 (bromine gas) than O2 (oxygen gas) because Br2 has more number of electrons.
  • LiCl is ionic in nature which makes it dissolve in water readily. it easily forms its ions (Li+ and Cl- ) in solutions.
  • Methanol (CH3OH) has the highest solubility in water compared to LiCl, Br2 and O2 because it contains Hydrogen bonding which is strongest of all inter molecular forces.

Explain the term contact force and give examples​
aliya0001 [1]

Answer & Explanation:

In physics, a contact force is a force that acts at the point of contact between two objects, in contrast to body forces. Contact forces are described by Newton's laws of motion, as with all other forces in dynamics. Contact force is the force in which an object comes in contact with another object. Contact forces are also direct forces. Contact forces are ubiquitous and are responsible for most visible interactions between macroscopic collections of matter. Pushing a car up a hill or kicking a ball or pushing a desk across a room are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work. In the first case the force is continuously applied by the person on the car, while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse.

What is colligative property? why does theproperty changes the way that it does when the amount of solute is increased. State an
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Colligative properties are those substances that depend on the number of substances in the solution, not in the identity of that substance. The property changes the way that it does when the amount of solute is increased because it enables the solute to be scattered more. For example, the freezing point of salt water is lower than that of the pure water due to the salt ions present in water.

Which of these charges has the greatest magnitude
Natalka [10]

Answer:

magnitude means absolute value, so the one that is greastest, like |-7| and |4| even id |-7| is a negative number, but it is still the one farthest away from 0, so |-7| is greater than |4|.

That is the way to find the greatest magnitude, but because I don't know your numbers so I can not answer your question, but this is the way to solve for it.
