Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. ... This allows the water molecule to become attracted to many other different types of molecules.

Which pair of elements is most apt to form an ionic compound with each other?
sweet [91]
Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed together by a cation and an anion. A cation is an ion with a positive charge. For example, Na+ and Ca2+. An ion has a negative charge, like Cl- and OH-. There is a greater chance of forming an ionic compound when they have a great difference in electronegativity, the ability to attract electrons toward itself. In the periodic table, elements that are opposite to each other, more likely found in opposite sides, would be more apt to form an ionic compound. Example would be NaCl and CaCl2 or Ca(OH)2.

Answer 1) Option D : Discrete


Explanation : As in the example the scientist studies about the effects of growing human populations on the biodiversity which is found in a region, and where each region was selected had a different population density of humans from 1 to 10 million per 10 square miles. Then in each region the number of different species that can be found was recorded. So here the numerical data was collected for different regions. So, we can conclude it as discrete because when the variable takes on a countable number of values it is called as discrete.


Answer 2) Option D : The entertainment industry


Explanation : When people had enough time and money with them there was no need of creating the communications industry as it was a need not a luxurious thing. With the creation of Internet industry it is somewhat irrelevant. They had enough of time and money so building a labor industry seems to be a lame choice. So, the option of entertainment industry suits the best.

A helium balloon has a volume of 2.00L at 101kpa. As the balloon rises the pressure drops to 97.0kPa. What is the new volume?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

2.08L

Explanation:

V1 = 2.00L

P1 = 101kPa

P2 = 97.0kPa

V2 = ?

from Boyle's law,

P1V1 = P2V2

101 × 2 = 97 × V2

V2 = 202/97 = 2.08L

Therefore, the new volume is 2.08L
