Explanation:

Soaps attach to both water and grease molecules.

The grease molecules are attracted more strongly towards each other as compared to water molecules. Also, water molecules are smaller in size hence, strong intermolecular force is required to break the hydrogen bonds of water molecule so that grease or oil molecules can enter the water molecule.

A soap molecule goes in between water and grease molecule and helps them to bind. The force for linkage between water and grease molecule through the soap molecule is weak london dispersion force.

The soap molecule has its salt end as ionic and water soluble. When grease or oil is added to the soap and water solution then the soap acts as an emulsifier. The soap forms miscelles of the non-polar tails and grease molecules are trapped between these miscelles. This miscelle is easily soluble in water hence, the grease is washed away.

Thus, it can be concluded that the nonpolar end of a soap molecule attaches itself to grease.

Answer: The non-polar end of a soap molecule attaches itself to grease.

Explanation:

Soap molecule that is <em>miscelle </em>has two parts:

  • Polar part or hydrophilic part : This part interacts with polar water molecules.
  • Non-polar or hydrophobic : This part interacts with the non-polar molecules that is grease.

By the interaction of non-polar part with grease and interaction of  polar part with water due to which grease get easily dissolved in water.

Hence,the correct answer is : 'The non-polar end of a soap molecule attaches itself to grease'.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is "Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction".

Explanation:

It applies a rate of reaction to the balance, a forward response dominates until it reaches a constant. This process is balanced before 52 mmol of the reactantHC  H_{3} \ CO_2, to which 3 is added. In balance, that rate of the forward reaction was its rate with forwarding reaction, both of which are higher than 0 as the response has achieved balance so that both species get a level greater than 0.

Anthracite coal d) is the most abundant grade of coal e) is very soft and burns at high temperatures a) causes the most air poll
forsale [732]

Answer: The correct option is C ( is very hard and burns cleanly).

Explanation:

COAL is a form of rock that is made up of mostly carbon amongst other elements which includes sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. There are different types of coal which include:

--> anthracite ( 90% carbon)

--> bituminous coal ( 70-90% carbon)

--> lignite ( 60- 70% carbon) and

--> peat (60 % carbon).

Anthracite is the type of coal that contains the highest carbon content ( 90% carbon). This makes it very hard and is often a times referred to as HARD COAL. Anthracite is a higher quality coal for domestic and open fire heating. This is because it contains less impurities than other type of coal and thereby making it to BURN CLEANLY avoiding atmospheric pollution.

Explanation - The mean deal with science is that it allows people to carry on research in an organized manner to find or make new discoveries and inventions.  

The basic purpose of science is to try new things or ways to get an outcome by constant perseverance on research and negating the ways that don't work thus giving and improving knowledge of what is correct and what is not to make a new Discovery or invention.
