Answer:

a. polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents.

Explanation:

Polarity is a phenomenon that has to do with the positive and negative electric (ionic) charges of a molecule. A molecule with distinct positive and electric charge is said to be POLAR. However, water is said to be a universal solvent because it dissolves more substances than any other solvent can.

This solvent property of water is a function of its POLARITY. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents. Hence, only polar solutes can dissolve in water (a polar solvent). Hence, in this case, CH3OCH3 (ether) will dissolve in water because it is a POLAR molecule/solute.

<h3>What are elements?</h3>

Elements are pure substances which are composed of similar atoms.

Elements are defined as substances which cannot be split into simpler substances by an ordinary chemical process.

Elements have different physical and chemical properties and can be classified into:

  • metals
  • semi-metals
  • non-metals

In conclusion, the physical and chemical properties of the elements vary from metals to non-metals.

At the same temperature, steam burns are often more severe than water burns because of water's high
MrRa [10]
At the same temperature, steam burns are often more severe that water burns because of water's high HEAT OF VAPORIZATION.
Water possesses high heat of vaporization. The heat of vaporization refers to the amount of heat that is needed to convert a unit mass of water to gas. After getting to the boiling point, a lot of heat is still needed to be absorbed by a boiling water before it can be converted to the gaseous form. Thus, the heat that is inherent in the steam is greater than that which is found in the boiling water, that is why the steam causes more damages.
