Why are salt and sugar both able to dissolve in water, even though the solutes have different types of chemical bonding?

Chemistry

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.

How many liters are there in 144g of H₂O (g)?<br> What is the mass of 200L at STP of H₂O₂ (g)?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

1. 179.2 L

2. 303.62 g

Explanation:

1. Determination of volume of H₂O (g).

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 144 g of H₂O. This is illustrated below:

Mass of H₂O = 144 g

Molar mass of H₂O = (2×1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18 g/mol

Mole of H₂O =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of H₂O = 144/18

Mole of H₂O = 8 moles

Finally, we shall determine volume of H₂O (g) as follow:

1 mole of any gas occupy 22.4L at stp.

Therefore, 8 moles of H₂O (g) will occupy =

8 × 22.4 = 179.2 L

Thus, 144 g of H₂O (g) occupies 179.2 L

2. Determination of the mass of H₂O₂ (g).

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of H₂O₂ (g) that occupied 200 L at STP. this can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of any gas occupy 22.4 L at stp.

Therefore, Xmol of H₂O₂ (g) will occupy 200 L at STP i.e

Xmol of H₂O₂ (g) = 200/22.4

Xmol of H₂O₂ (g) = 8.93 moles

Thus, 8.93 moles of H₂O₂ (g) occupied 200 L at STP.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of H₂O₂ (g) as follow:

Mole of H₂O₂ (g) = 8.93 moles

Molar mass of H₂O₂ = (2×1) + (2×16) = 2 + 32 = 34 g/mol

Mass of H₂O₂ =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

8.93 = mass of H₂O₂ /34

Cross multiply

Mass of H₂O₂ = 8.93 × 34

Mass of H₂O₂ = 303.62 g
