Can you make a prediction about which ionic compounds will cause an increase or decrease in the temperature of the solution when

they dissolve in water?

Answer:

If the hydration energy is greater than the lattice energy of the solute, then the enthalpy of solution is positive(exothermic), otherwise it is negative(exothermic).

Explanation:

  • The process of dissolving can be endothermic (temperature goes down) or exothermic (temperature goes up).
  • When water dissolves a substance, the water molecules attract and “bond” to the particles (molecules or ions) of the substance causing the particles to separate from each other.
  • The “bond” that a water molecule makes is not a covalent or ionic bond. It is a strong attraction caused by water’s polarity.
  • It takes energy to break the bonds between the molecules or ions of the solute.
  • In an ionic solution, the existence of the lattice energy and hydration energy largely determines if the solution is exothermic or endothermic.

        Lattice Energy:  It is a measure of the cohesive forces that bind ions.

        Hydration energy: is the amount of energy released when one mole        of ions undergo hydration.

  • Energy is released when water molecules bond to the solute molecules or ions.
  • If it takes more energy to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes down (endothermic) i.e hydration energy is greater than the lattice energy.
  • If it takes less energy  to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes up (exothermic) i.e hydration energy is less than lattice energy.

What happens when wind sweeps up sand and throws it against a big rock?
RideAnS [48]
In deserts, wind often causes weathering by blowing sand and other material against cliffs and large rocks. This wears them down and creates more bits of sand and dust. Over time, the rock is scraped and polished away. ... When a gust of wind blows, it picks up sand and other bits of material.

What was the purpose of putting distilled water in the blank cuvette? if your unknown used ethanol as the base solvent, what wou
Margaret [11]

The purpose of using distilled water in the cuvette of the spectrophotometer is to calibrate the instrument. It is generally considered that distilled water shows zero absorbance and 100 % transmittance. So, to zero out the absorbance of compounds other than the analyte being determined, distilled water is used as a blank.

If the unknown being determined is prepared using ethanol as the base solution, the blank used must be ethanol. This is because absorbance if any from the solvent, ethanol must be zeroed out as when the measurement of the actual unknown is being made, the absorbance of the solvent does not interfere.

What occurs when potassium reacts with chlorine to form potassium chloride
nordsb [41]
Basically since potassium chloride is an ionic compound as it consists of a metal and a nonmetal, the potassium atom will donate one of its valence electrons to chlorine that will accept it and as a result produce oppositely charged ions, where the K + ion and the Cl - ion will attract forming an ionic bond. The compound that results is potassium chloride.
