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 difference in the atom's electronegativity.

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

Calculate the number of formula units in 2.50 mol NaNO

marta [7]

The number of formula units in 2.50 mol of the compound is 15.1 * 10^23.

The question is unclear whether NaNO2 or NaNO3 is implied. However,in either case, the solution applies equally.

6.02 * 10^23 formula units of the compound are contained in 1 mole

x formula units are contained in 2.5 moles of the compound

x = 6.02 * 10^23 formula units * 2.5 moles/ 1 mole

x = 15.1 * 10^23 formula units of the compound.

Which of the following (with specific heat capacity provided) would show the smallest temperature change upon gaining 200.0 J of

Brut [27]

Answer: The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

$q=mC\times \Delta T$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

Option a: 50.0 g Fe, $C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC$

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

Option b: 50.0 g water, $C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC$

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

Option b: 25.0 g Pb, $C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC$

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

Option d: 25.0 g Ag, $C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC$

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

Option e: 25.0 g granite, $C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC$

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Which sample contains the largest number of oxygen atoms? Select one: a. 8.0 g of carbon dioxide b. 8.0 g of potassium chlorate

adell [148]

The sample with the largest number of oxygen atoms will be calcium perchlorate.

<h3>Number of atoms in a compound</h3>

Since we are not looking at the number of moles, the mass of the compounds has no bearing on the number of atoms of oxygen.

The chemical formula for carbon dioxide is $CO_2$ . Thus, it has 2 atoms of oxygen.
The chemical formula for potassium chlorate is $KClO_3$ . Thus, it has 3 oxygen atoms.
The chemical formula for calcium perchlorate is $Ca(ClO_4)_2$ . Thus, it has 8 atoms of oxygen.
The chemical formula for sodium hydroxide is NaOH. Thus, it has 1 atom of oxygen.

Therefore, the compound with the largest number of oxygen atoms is calcium perchlorate.
