What is the relationship between the concentration of particles in a solution and the solution’s vapor pressure? As solute conce
kap26 [50]

Answer:

As solute concentration increases, vapor pressure decreases.  

Step-by-step explanation:

As solute concentration increases, the number of solute particles at the surface of the solution increases, so the number of <em>solvent </em>particles at the surface <em>decreases</em>.

Since there are fewer solvent particles available to evaporate from the surface, the vapour pressure decreases.

C. and D. are <em>wrong</em>. The vapour pressure depends <em>only</em> on the number of particles. It does not depend on the nature of the particles.

In which layer of the ocean do surface currents flow?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

ooh sorry, but will this help you now:

Ocean dynamics define and describe the motion of water within the oceans. Ocean temperature and motion fields can be separated into three distinct layers: mixed (surface) layer, upper ocean (above the thermocline), and deep ocean. Ocean currents are measured in sverdrup (sv), where 1 sv is equivalent to a volume flow rate of 1,000,000 m (35,000,000 cu ft) per second.

Surface currents, which make up only 8% of all water in the ocean, are generally restricted to the upper 4…

Why does water conduct electricity but only very poorly
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

actually pure water doesnt conduct electricity, any salts or impurities dissolved in water enable it to conduct electricity, When salts are dissolved in water, they separate into different electrically charged atoms called ions. Sodium chloride (NaCl), breaks up into positive Na ions and negative Cl ions.
