Answer:

Dissolves in water: Acetone, 1-propanol, Methanol

Do not dissolve in water: Hexane, Decane

Explanation:

From the principle that like dissolves like,polar substances will dissolve in polar solutions, while non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar substances.

Water is a polar solution, therefore, polar substances will dissolve in it.From the given options:

Acetone is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

1-propanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Hexane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water.

Methanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Decane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water

A student was assigned the task of determining the identity of an unknown liquid. The student weighed a clean, dry 250-mL Erlenm
LiRa [457]

Answer:

248.4 mL

Explanation:

Erlenmeyer = 78.649 g

Erlenmeyer + Water = 327.039 g

Water = (Erlenmeyer + Water) - Erlenmeyer

Water = 327.039 - 78.649

Water = 248.4 g

if the density of water is 1 g/mL, we can say that each mL of water weigh 1 g, so we have 248.4 mL of water in the Erlenmeyer Flask.

23492u undergoes alpha decay. what is the atomic number of the resulting element.
mash [69]
Alpha decay involves the loss of an alpha particle, aka a helium nucleus. This results in the mass number of the original element decreasing by 4 and the atomic number decreasing by 2. Assuming 23942u is uranium (92), the resulting element's atomic number is 90, making it thorium.

How do you find a theoretical mass? Is there a difference between theoretical mass and theoretical yield?
swat32

Theoretical yield is the quantity of a product obtained from the complete conversion of the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction. It is the amount of product resulting from a perfect chemical reaction and thus not the same as the amount you'll actually get from a reaction.
