Explanation:
Adhesion means the ability to stick on the surface of another substance.
Water exhibits adhesive forces due to which it is able to stick to the glass. Due to adhesive forces water spreads over the surface of glass and sticks to it.
These adhesive forces between the glass and water enough that it deforms the spherical shape of water molecules and help them stick to the surface of glass. As a result, adhesive forces overcome the repulsion between like molecules.
Hence, water is able to “stick” to the side of glass due to strong adhesive forces.
The word elliptical refers to an Oval.
Density is Mass divided by volume.
Answer:
55.9 g KCl.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the definition of molality for the 0.500-molar solution, we need to divide the moles of solute (potassium chloride) over the kilograms of solvent as shown below:

Thus, solving for the moles of solute, we obtain:

Since the density of water is 1 kg/L, we obtain the following moles:

Next, since the molar mass of KCl is 74.5513 g/mol, the mass would be:
