In order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent,
the attractive forces between solute particles and the solvent particles must
be stronger than the attractive forces between solute-solute and
solvent-solvent particles. This is important so that the solute will remain in
solution.
<span>Colligative properties are properties of solutions that depend on the number of molecules [or ions] in a given volume of solvent and not on the properties (e.g. size or mass) of the compound. Colligative properties include: lowering of vapor pressure; elevation of boiling point; depression of freezing point and osmotic pressure.</span>
<span>Raising
the temperature of the reactants increases the reaction between the reactants.
The kinetic energy of the molecules of the reactants collides more frequently
with ach other thereby increasing its reaction. Increasing the concentration of
the reactants increases the reaction rate. Adding a catalyst to the reaction
increases the rate of reaction of a substance. The catalyst hastens the
chemical reaction. </span>
add up the mass of protons and neutrons
Answer:
In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.
\
Explanation
When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation
