The answer to this question would be D. Hydrophilic.

The word hydrophilic mean attracted by water. That means the molecule has a force to attract water molecule, thus be able to dissolve in water.  The polarity of the molecule would determine whether a molecule hydrophilic or not.
Its opposite would be hydrophobic which the molecule can't dissolve in water.  One example of this would be oil or fat. That is why sometimes it is called lipophilic too.

Give the chemical symbol for the element with the ground‑state electron configuration [ Ar ] 4 s 2 3 d 1 . symbol: Determine the
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Sc (Scandium) has the given electronic configuration.

Explanation:

The given electronic configuration is [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{1}.

The last electron enters the d-subshell and hence is a d-block element known as Scandium with chemical symbol Sc.

For 4s subshell

n=4,l=0 and m ranges from -l to +l so m=0.

For 3d subshell

n=3,l=2 and m ranges from -l to +l so m can take values -2,-1,0,+1,+2

Note:

l values for subshells:

s : 0

p : 1

d : 2

f : 3 and so on.

You have a 1.153 g sample of an unknown solid acid, HA, dissolved in enough water to make 20.00 mL of solution. HA reacts with K
seropon [69]

Answer:

HA +  KOH  →  KA  +  H₂O

Explanation:

The unknown solid acid in water can release its proton as this:

HA  +  H₂O  →  H₃O⁺  +  A⁻

As we have the anion A⁻, when it bonded to the cation K⁺, salt can be generated, so the reaction of HA and KOH must be a neutralization one, where you form water and a salt

HA +  KOH  →  KA  +  H₂O

It is a neutralization reaction because H⁺ from the acid and OH⁻ from the base can be neutralized as water

AleksAgata [21]
Hrxn = Q reaction / mol of reaction
mol of reaction = M * V = 10 * 1 = 10 mmol = 0.01 mol
Q water = m * C * (Tf - Ti)
             = (10 + 10) (4.184) (26-20) = 502.08 J
Q reaction = - Q water = -502.08 J
Hrxn = -502.08 / (0.01) = - 50208 J = - 50.21 kJ/mol
