Answer: option D. The attractive forces between the sodium and chloride ions are overcome by the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions.
Explanation:
<em>Solid sodium chloride</em> (NaCl) is a ionic compound formed by ionic bonds between by the positive, metallic cations of sodium atom, Na⁺, and the negative, non-meatllic anions of chlorine atom, Cl⁻ (chloride).
Ionic bonds, then, are the electrostatic attracion between oppositely charged particles (cations and anions).

<em>When solid sodium chloride dissolves in water</em>, the ions (cations and anions) are separated in the solvent (water) due to the superior attracitve forces between such ions and the polar water molecules.
<em>Water</em> (H₂O) is a molecule, formed by polar covalent bonds between two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
The polarity of water molecule is due to the fact that oxygen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen atoms, which cause that the electron density is closer to oxygen nuclei than to hydrogen nuclei. This asymmetry in the electron density conferes a partial positive charge over each hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge over the oxygen atoms.
Thus, the positively charged hydrogen atoms attract and surround the negative chloride (Cl⁻) anions, while the negatively charged oxygen atoms attract and surround the positive sodium (Na⁺) cations. It is only because the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions are stronger than the attractive forces between the sodiium and chloride ions that such ions may be kept separated in the solution. This process is called solvation and the ions are said to be solvated by the water molecules.
Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A mixture is defined as a substance that contains two or more different substance that are physically mixed with each other.
If solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent then it is known as a homogeneous mixture.
For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
If solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.
For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement a mixture must contain at least two different substances, is correct about mixtures.
Ultrasound is sound or vibrations, having an ultrasonic frequency, particularly as used in medical imaging. Ultrasound is more commonly used in medical terminology than in industry. Infrasound is sound waves with frequencies below the lower limit of human audibility.
pH is an important parameter for many reactions to take place in solution and in biological systems. It is related to the concentration of H⁺ ions through the following expression:
pH = 1/[H⁺] = -log [H⁺]
Wanting to know the pH of a solution is equivalent to knowing the amount of hydrogen ions present. But the pH scale is more convenient than the concentration scale because pH usually takes values between 0 and 14.
- When pH < 7 the solution is acid.
- When pH = 7 the solution is neutral (like pure water).
- When pH > 7 the solution is basic.
Answer : The temperature of liquid is, 369.9 K
Explanation :
The Clausius- Clapeyron equation is :
where,
= vapor pressure of liquid at 373 K = 681 torr
= vapor pressure of liquid at normal boiling point = 760 torr
= temperature of liquid = ?
= normal boiling point of liquid = 373 K
= heat of vaporization = 40.7 kJ/mole = 40700 J/mole
R = universal constant = 8.314 J/K.mole
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Hence, the temperature of liquid is, 369.9 K
