The dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction. With the higher temperature, the salt dissolve quickly.
<h3>What is borax?</h3>
Borax is the hydrate salt of boric acid. It is white and widely used in cleaning and in laundry detergent.
Borax is a salt that will dissolve in water at almost any temperature, with the exception of steam and ice.
However, as with any salt, the higher the temperature, the faster the salt dissolves, so speed is dependent on temperature. It will dissolve in cold water, but it will take longer.
Thus, the dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction.

The average atomic mass of the imaginary element : 47.255 amu
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
The elements in nature have several types of isotopes
Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)
Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes
Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% ..
isotope E-47 47.011 amu, 87.34%
isotope E-48 48.008 amu, 6.895
isotope E-49 50.009 amu, 5.77%

<em>From the above options, the best </em><em>Thermal insulator </em><em>will be a </em><em>Plastic cup.</em>
Option (b);
<u>Explanation</u>
Thermal insulators resist to conduct energy or reduction of heat transfer when objects come across in contact with radiation or higher heat object. To conduct energy we need metal or those materials which contain free electrons in it to move from one metal to another.
Plastic doesn't have metallic character so it will resist the heat up to some threshold. Mostly this material is used in separating two current-conducting material. There are many other examples of thermal insulator such as Rubber, fabrics, paper, wood, wool.
Answer:
1.53 atm
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Volume = constant
Initial pressure (P₁) = stp = 1 atm
Initial temperature (T₁) = 273 K
Final temperature (T₂) = 144 °C = 144 °C + 273 = 417 K
Final pressure (P₂) =?
Since the volume is constant, the final pressure can be obtained as follow:
P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂
1 / 273 = P₂ / 417
Cross multiply
273 × P₂ = 417
Divide both side by 273
P₂ = 417 / 273
P₂ = 1.53 atm
Therefore, the final pressure (i.e the pressure inside the hot water bottle) is 1.53 atm.
