Why does salt dissolve in water act as an antifreeze?

Physics
2 answers:
aalyn [17]3 years ago

Answer:

A

Explanation:

An antifreeze is a substance which when added to a liquid reduces the freezing point of the liquid. Hence the solution can only freeze at a lower temperature compared to the solvent. Examples of antifreeze includes salt and propylene glycol. Antifreeze are used in low temperature environments to prevent water from freezing quicky. Hence the answer is A.

Answer:

Because the freezing point of a solution increases above that of the solvent as solute is added.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Ben's average speed was twice Debby's average speed.

Explanation:

Ben covered a total distance of 16 miles (10+4+2) and Debby covered 8 miles (3+2+2+1) which is half of what Ben covered. As they both reached the place in the same amount of time it tells us Ben was faster.

Use evidence to explain why glass refracted more light than air or water
agasfer [191]

Explanation:

The refraction is the change in the direction of light while travelling from the one medium to another due to having different speeds in different mediums.

To determine how much light gets refracted, it depends on the density of substance and the wavelength and the angle at which light enters the substance.

Light travels more slowly in denser medium than the rarer medium. The refractive index of glass is more than water or air. Light gets refracted more in this. When the light travels from rarer to denser then the light will get bend towards the normal. When the light travels from denser to rarer then the light will get bend away from the normal.      

Glass is more denser than air or water. Water is more denser than the air. When light travels from air to glass then the light gets bends towards the normal. When the light travels from glass to the air then light gets bends away from the normal.

Therefore, the light gets refracted more in the glass than air to water.

What conclusion can be drawn from the statement that an element has high electron affinity, high electronegativity, and a high i
amid [387]

Answer:

D) The element is most likely from Group 6A or 7A and in period 2 or 3.

Explanation:

Electronegativity of an atom is the tendency of an atom to attract shared paired of electron to itself. Electronegativity increase across the period from left to right.The ability of an atom to attract electron to itself is electronegativity. Group 7A and 6A elements can easily attract atoms to itself so they are highly electronegative. The most electronegative element in the periodic table is fluorine.Group 6A and 7A is likely to have high electronegativity.

Electron affinity of an atom is the amount of energy release when an atom gains electron . Generally, when atom gains electron they become negatively charged. Group 6A and 7A elements have high electron affinity.  

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove one or more electron from a neutral atom to form cations.  ionization energy of group 7A and 6A are usually high because the energy required to remove these electron is usually very high . The elements in this groups usually gain electron easily so the energy to remove electron is very high.
