The correct answer is option B. The most dense phase of matter is the solid phase and the least dense are gases. However, there is an exception. Water is the exception. Solid water or ice is less dense than the liquid phase therefore it floats on liquid water.

Answer:

b. Solid

Explanation:

Density is a measure of how much mass, essentially particles are packed in a unit volume of a substance. So the more packed mass is in a unit volume, the higher the density of a substance. It follows then that a solid, the substance with the most packed arrangement of particles is normally the one with the highest density.

Cyclohexane (C6H12) is a hydrocarbon (a substance containing only carbon and hydrogen) liquid. Which of the following will most

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: $CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3}$

Explanation: Hydrocarbons are the compounds which contain only carbon and hydrogen as their constituent elements. These are considered to be as the non polar species as because of the less electronegativity difference between the two components.

Now as it is a non polar species thus it will dissolve only a non polar solute following the principle of 'Like dissolves Like'. Thus the most non polar species given in the options is pentane. Cyclohexane will definitely dissolve this pentane as both are non polar in nature.

$CH_{2}Cl_{2}$ , HI and NaBr are polar specie which cannot be dissolved in non polar species.
