1. Carson completed conductivity testing on the solutions shown in the data table below and recorded his findings in the conduct

ivity column. After determining which solutions conducted electricity and which solutions did not conduct electricity, Carson needs to explain his findings so that he can make predictions about conductivity in the future without having to complete the testing. Why do some of the solutions conduct electricity and some of the solutions not conduct electricity?

Consider Carson's findings, then make a claim to answer the question. Be sure to support your claim with sufficient evidence and reasoning.

Answer:

See below :)

Explanation:

There is an evident reason why some of the solutions Carson's has listed and observed, does conduct electricity and some that do.

A flow of electrical charge is called an electric current. Ions are atoms, or sets of atoms, that contain an electrical charge. There are two types of ions, cation or a positively charged ion containing a deficiency of electrons, and anion or a negatively charged ion which contains a surplus of electrons. When a solution conducts electricity the charge is carried within by ions that move through the solution. The larger the number of ions in the solution, the better the conductivity of the solution is. Pure water does not conduct very well because it contains very few ions, but when table salt (NaCl) is dissolved in the water, this solution does conduct well because the solution contains a more abundance of ions. The majority of the ions come from the table salt, chemically names sodium chloride. Because Sodium contains its sodium ions, and these are positive charge and chloride ions which is a negative charge, it is called an ionic substance. Not every substance is made up of ions, one such example is sugar (C12H22O11). Sugar is made up of uncharged particles also called molecules. Although sugar is a substance its molecules do not hold a charge, thus when sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, due to the lack of ions in the solution.

Therefore, depending on the ions that make up the compound, the substance would or would not conduct electricity.

15.1 L N2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa and 44.3 L O2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa were transferred to a tank with a volume of 6.25 L. What is th
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C  is 1291.85 kPa.

Explanation:

For N2,

                Pressure(P₁)=125 kPa

                  Volume(V₁)=15·1 L

                Temperature (T₁)=25°C=25+273 K=298 K

Similarly, for Oxygen,

                   Pressure(P₂)= 125 kPa

                   Volume(V₂)= 44.3 L

                  Temperature(T₂)=25°C= 298 K

Then, for the mixture,

              Volumeof the mixture( V)= 6.25 L

                                     Pressure(P)=?

                Temperature (T)= 51°C = 51+273 K=324 K

Then, By Combined gas laws,

                                 \frac{P_{1} V_{1} }{T_{1} } +\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{T_{2} } =\frac{PV}{T}

                      or, \frac{15.1*125}{298} +\frac{44.3*125}{298} =\frac{P*6.25}{324}

                     or, 6.34+18.58=\frac{P*6.25}{324}

                     or, P=\frac{24.92*324}{6.25}

                        ∴P=1291.85 kPa

So the total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C  is 1291.85 kPa.

Object A at 40ºC and object B at 80ºC are placed in contact with each other. Which statement describes the heat flow between the
Arada [10]
By the second law of thermodynamics:
Heat can not spontaneously flow from cold regions to hot regions without external work being performed on a system.
Heat transfer is the passage of thermal energy from a hot ( t B = 80° C ) to a colder body ( t A = 40° C ). 
Answer:  B ) Heat flows from object B to object A.

Define and then describe the difference between a polar covalent bond, nonpolar covalent bond and ionic bond.
Romashka [77]
Polar covalent bond-  a bond where atoms are unevenly shared due to a larger difference in electronegativity of the bonded elements.

Non-polar covalent bond- These are bonds between elements with a low difference in electronegativity. Electrons are shared equally in these bonds between the elements.

Ionic bonds- have such  large difference in electronegativity that they take/give electrons to the element they are bonded to. They do not share electrons at all. Bonds between a non-metal and a metal.
