Answer:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent and it is likely to dissolve polar molecules.

KCl is ionic in nature and is completely polar and the solubility of the salt, potassium chloride is the highest.

Butanol can form hydrogen bonding with the water despite having a carbon chain. Thus, butanol will be at second.

Taking about, ethane and propane, both are non polar and least likely to dissolve in water. But, the extent of the London forces increases with the increase in the molecular weight. So, propane will dissolve faster than ethane.

The order is:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

Ivanshal [37]
The correct answer to your question would be B) Loess, or <span>Aeolian deposits , reasoning to your question is because, loess is a german word but in english means loss or loose. So given that clay and small particles that are not combined together are loose particles. moves freely. Hope this helps you out.

Benzene can be nitrated with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids. How do we do that?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

We can do the nitration of benzene by treating the benzene with a mixture of nitric acid and sulphuric acid by not extending the temperature of 50°C

Explanation:

Nitration of benzene takes place by treating the benzene with a mixture of nitric acid and sulphuric acid at low temperatures such as the temperatures below 50°C

The nitration of benzene takes place through electrophilic substitution reaction

In this reaction the electrophile is nitronium ion (NO2+) which performs an electrophilic substitution reaction on the benzene ring and during the reaction an intermediate will also be formed in which there will be positive charge distributed in the benzene

These electrophile is generated when nitric acid is treated with sulphuric acid

As nitric acid is a strong oxidising agent, here in this case the oxidation state of nitrogen will change from +5 to +3

The reactions regarding the nitration of benzene is present in the file attached
