What happens to sodium chloride when it dissolves in water

Chemistry
2 answers:
scoundrel [369]2 years ago

When sodium chloride dissolves in water it dissociates into Na+ and Cl- ions.

NaCl + H₂O --> Na⁺+ Cl⁻

Both Na+ and Cl- ions are solvated by water molecules.

Water molecule has a dipole due the difference in electronegativity between the H and O atoms, as a result H and O atoms in water molecule acquires a partial positive and negative charge respectively.

δ⁺  δ⁻  δ⁺

H - O -H

Na⁺ and Cl⁻ gets attracted to the partial negative charge on the O atom and partial positive charge on the H atom respectively of water molecule. Thus ion dipole bonds are formed between NaCl and water.

<>"On addition to water the Na+ section of NaCl is attracted to the oxygen side of the water molecules, while the Cl- side is attracted to the hydrogens' side of the water molecule. This causes the sodium chloride to split in water, and the NaCl dissolves into separate Na+ and Cl- atoms."<>

Lake Baikal in Siberia is the largest freshwater body on Earth by volume, at 5666 mi³
Drupady [299]

largest freshwater body on Earth by volume, at 5666 mi³

1 mi³= 4.168  ×  10^12 L

5666 mi³ = 5666 × 4.168 × 10^12 L

  volume   = 2.362 × 10^16 L

  • volume is the amount of space an object take up or in other word measure of the size of a body or region in three-dimensional space occupied by an object L x W x H
  • Liquid volume metric base unit is liter(L)
  • cubic centimeters is basic unit for measuring the volume of solids and gases
  • maximum volume occupied by gases and minimum volume occupied by solid and liquid comes between them

How many grams are in 3.14 moles of PI₃?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1290 \ g \ PI_3}}

Explanation:

We want to convert from moles to grams, so we must use the molar mass.

<h3>1. Molar Mass</h3>

The molar mass is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the same as the atomic masses on the Periodic Table, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).

We are given the compound PI₃ or phosphorus triiodide. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.

  • Phosphorus (P): 30.973762 g/mol
  • Iodine (I): 126.9045 g/mol

Note that there is a subscript of 3 after the I in the formula. This means there are 3 moles of iodine in 1 mole of the compound PI₃. We should multiply iodine's molar mass by 3, then add phosphorus's molar mass.

  • I₃: 126.9045 * 3=380.7135 g/mol
  • PI₃: 30.973762 + 380.7135 = 411.687262 g/mol

<h3>2. Convert Moles to Grams</h3>

Use the molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 \  mol \ PI_3}

We want to convert 3.14 moles to grams, so we multiply by that value.

3.14 \ mol \ PI_3 *\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 \  mol \ PI_3}

The units of moles of PI₃ cancel.

3.14 *\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 }

1292.698 \ g\ PI_3

<h3>3. Round</h3>

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tens place.

  • 1292.698

The 2 in the ones place tells us to leave the 9.

1290 \ g \ PI_3

3.14 moles of phosphorous triiodide is approximately equal to <u>1290 grams of phosphorus triodide.</u>

can a light object that was hit with a small force accelerate as rapidly as a heavier object hit with a big force? why or why no
Tcecarenko [31]

The acceleration is defined by force divided by the mass of the object. So, When the smaller object is hit by a small force, it can produce equal acceleration which is same as that of the bigger body hit with large force.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Force is defined as the product of the mass of the body its applied to and the acceleration of the body in the direction of the force. So acceleration is force divided by the mass of the body.

Let the mass of the smaller body be m and that of the larger body be M.

The smaller force applied on the smaller body be f and the larger force applied on the larger body be F.

So acceleration of the larger body = F/M.

Acceleration of the smaller body = f/m.

For the accelerations to be same,

F/M = f/m.

Or F/f = M/m.

So when the ratio of the force applied on two bodies is in ratio of their masses, the acceleration becomes equal.
