Answer: pour an ionic solid into water and see if it vanishes.

Explanation: The solubility of substances is governed by: Like dissolves like, which states that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and non polar compounds are soluble in non polar solvents.

Ionic compounds are formed by combination of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions which are held by strong coloumbic forces.When ionic compounds are dissolved in water, the ions are dissociated due to high dielectric constant of water and thus dissolve in water.

Water being a polar solvent is able to dissolve ionic or polar compounds in it.

To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine
Sindrei [870]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

A resistance force is also known as friction. And the efficiency of a machine is affected by friction.

A machine of lower efficiency has higher magnitude of friction than a machine of higher efficiency.

Therefore, To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine of higher efficiency. This is true
