Based on what you know about matter explain why the food coloring mixes at different rates

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Matter has different densities. Different food colorings have different densities. Those with a higher density will sink to the bottom and mix much easier than one with a lower density. The higher density also contains more particles making it easier to mix or give it a fuller color.

Water is known as the universal solvent. One reason water makes a good solvent is because it is composed of polar molecules. Wha

Flauer [41]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is $H_{2}O$ .

It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.

Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other.
