Answer:

Both oil and gasoline molecules are nonpolar, while water is polar. Nonpolar solvents have a tendency to dissolve other nonpolar molecules.

Explanation:

Molecules may be categorized as "polar" or "nonpolar" according to <em>difference in the atom's electronegativity.</em>

<u>Water is polar</u> because it consists of two types of atoms that<em> do not cancel out each other.</em> It is made of two atoms of Hydrogen and only one atom of Oxygen. This makes the Oxygen<u> partially negative</u> and the Hydrogen <u>partially positive.</u> This allows them to readily bond with other polar molecules like sugar. However, it cannot mix freely with oil and gasoline because<em> both of these are nonpolar. </em>Nonpolar molecules do not have much difference when it comes to their atoms' electronegativity. <em>Therefore, they have the tendency to dissolve molecules which are nonpolar as well. </em>This explains why oil molecules can mix freely with gasoline.

When particles that attract each other are allowed to come to together, energy is ______
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Released

Explanation:

When particles that attract each other come together, energy is usually released. The combination of the two particles is expected to result in a lower energy system. This lower energy system will be more stable than the different individual particles.

Hence, as this lower energy system is formed, the excess energy originally possessed by the particles is evolved hence energy is released when particles that attract each other are allowed to come together.

What volume of 18.0 m sulfuric acid is required to prepare 16.5 l of 0.126 m h2so4?
Blababa [14]

this is a dilution question where a certain volume is taken from a more concentrated solution and diluted to make a solution with a lower concentration.

the dilution forumla is as follows

c1v1 = c2v2

where c1 is concentration and v1 is volume of the more concetrated solution

c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of the diluted solution

substituting the values in the equation

18.0 M x V = 0.126 M x 16.5 L

V = 0.1155 L

volume of 115.5 mL is taken from the 18.0 M solution and diluted upto 16.5 L solution.
