Answer:

Vegetable oil will dissolve in heptane

Isopropyl alcohol will dissolve in water

Potassium Bromide will dissolve in water

Explanation:

In chemistry, like dissolves like. This implies that polar substances will dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar substances will dissolve in nonpolar solvents. This is so because, dissolution of a solute in a solvent involves adequate intermolecular interaction between solute and solvent which isn't possible between a polar and a nonpolar substance.

How many moles of solute particles are present in 1 ml of aqueous 0.020 m (nh4)2co3?
Dima020 [189]
Vs = 1.0 mL = 0.001 L
c((NH4)2CO3) = <span>0.02 M
n(</span>(NH4)2CO3) = ?

For the purpose, here we will use the next equation:

c=n/V ⇒ n=cxV

n((NH4)2CO3) = 0.02M x 0.001L 

n((NH4)2CO3) = 2x10⁻⁵ mole of (NH4)2CO3 is presented in the solution

Plastics are synthetic, organic polymers. how are plastics similar and different to polysaccharides
yawa3891 [41]
Plastics and polysaccharides are somewhat similar because they are both polymers. Polymers are a long chain of repeating units called monomers. Their difference, however, is the identity of their monomers. Plastics have hydrocarbons as monomers. Plastics with the monomer ethene is called polyethylene. For polysaccharides, their monomers are simple sugars.

A gas at a pressure of 608 mmHg is held in a container with a volume of 545 mL. What is
hram777 [196]

Answer:

441.81 mL

Explanation:

P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

V2 = P1 x V1 / P2

V2 = 608 x 545 / 750

V2 = 331360 / 750

V2 = 441.81 mL
