What happens to the rate of dissolution as the temperature is increased in a gas solution?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The rate decreases

Explanation:

When we dissolve a gas in a water, the process is exothermic. This implies that heat is evolved upon dissolution of a gas in water.

Recall from Le Chateliers principle that for exothermic reactions, an increase in temperature favours the reverse reaction. The implication of these is that when the temperature of the gas is increased, less gas will dissolve in water.

Hence increase in temperature decreases the rate of solubility of a gas in water.

What is true about protons within an atom?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
It defines the element. If you change the protons, you change the type of element. A proton is positively charged and is most of the mass of the atom, next to the neutron. Neutrons have a very very very slightly higher mass.

Explain how the concept of the “survival of the fittest” relates to the theory of evolution.
Vinvika [58]
The fittest species for a certain biome will adapt and change so as to keep living. This process is evolution and an example can be giraffes. If they had smaller necks, they couldn't reach the tree tops where food is, so only the fittest one with large necks survived, and they evolved by having the entire species grow up with large necks.
