Answer:
What forms of energy does a burning candle give out?
- The burning candle is converting chemical energy—stored in the hydrocarbon bonds in the wax—into thermal (heat) and radiant (light) energy.
What questions do you have about energy?
- Can momentum be hidden to human eyes like how kinetic energy can be hidden as heat?
- Can you go fast enough to get enough mass to become a black hole?
- How can a material at a certain temperature have all of its molecules at the same energy?
- How can we travel to the past?
Answer:
a) If the solvent-solute interactions in a mixture are <u>stronger than</u> the solvent-solvent interactions and the solute-solute interactions, a homogeneous solution forms.
b) If the solvent-solute interactions in a mixture are <u>weaker than</u> the solvent-solvent interactions and the solute-solute interactions, the formation of a homogeneous solution is uncertain.
Explanation:
The solubility of solute in given solvent mainly depends upon the intermolecular interactions between the solvent and the solute. If the solute is surrounded and solvated by the solvent then the solute will dissolve in that solvent. Therefore, in order to dissolve the solute must form stronger interactions with the solvent as compared to the solute solute interactions or solvent solvent interactions.
Example:
When NaCl is added to water the partial negative oxygen of water is attracted to Na⁺ of NaCl and the partial positive hydrogen of water is attracted to Cl⁻ of NaCl. These new interactions between the NaCl ions and water are stronger than the interactions between water molecules and NaCl molecules themselves hence, results in solubility of NaCl in water.
On the other hand, if NaCl is added to Hexane (C₆H₁₄) it fails to make strong interactions with the solvent molecules resulting in insolubility of NaCl in hexane.
Answer:
The correct answer is - brand of floor wax.
Explanation:
The independent variable is the variable or the factor in an investigation which is manipulated or change in the experiment and affects the dependent variable and produces a various result.
In this investigation, there are different brands of the floor was are the independent variable as they are changed to see the effect on the scratches on the floor on 20 tiles for each brand.
