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 to the buoyant force on an object as it is lowered into water?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
The buoyant force is the upward force or thrust...Simply, consider immersing your hand into a bucket of water. What happens to it? It raises (a little). The raising is due to the buoyant force. Basically it is the upward force/thrust that acts on any object immersed into a fluid. Hence why things float when out in water. Hope this helped!!

A ball was massed in a dish. The total mass was 15.6 grams. Treball was placed in a
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

14.57g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of dish + ball  = 15.6g

Initial volume of water in the cylinder  = 26.7mL  

Final volume of water in the cylinder  = 38.9mL

Mass of dish = ?

Unknown

Mass of the ball = ?

Solution;

 Since the mass of ball and dish is 15.6g,

 Mass of the ball  =Mass of ball + dish  - mass of the dish

 Insert the parameters and solve;

 Mass of the ball  = 15.6g  - 1.03g  = 14.57g
