Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A substance is only soluble in water if it is composed of ions or polar groups which are capable of interaction with water.

Salt is composed of ions which are easily solvated by the dipoles of water molecule. Sucrose is composed of polar groups capable of interaction with water. This accounts for the solubility of sucrose (sugar) in water. Sugar is a covalent molecule but is composed of polar groups while salt is composed of ionic bonds.

Hence salt and sugar are both soluble in water for the reasons described above.

Answer:

3rd option. 1–butanamine

Explanation:

To name the compound above, the following must be observed:

1. Locate the functional group in the chain. In this case the functional group is amine.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound. In this case, the longest chain has 4 carbon i.e butane.

3. Since the functional group is amine, the parent name becomes butanamine i.e replacing the –e at the end in butane with –amine

4. Indicate the position of the functional group in the chain. In this case the functional group is at carbon 1

5. Name the compound by putting the above together.

The name of the compound is:

1–butanamine or butan–1–amine

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Accuracy of a measured value refers to how close a measurement is to the correct value. The uncertainty in a measurement is an estimate of the amount by which the measurement result may differ from this value. Precision of measured values refers to how close the agreement is between repeated measurements.
