Answer:
the wax is a nonpolar substance that will not mix with polar water
Explanation:
Water is polar by due to the uneven distribution of charge between the hydrogen and oxygen. T=This automatically eliminates options 3 and 4.
Wax on the other hand is a non polar substance. Due to this non polar characteristic, it would not dissolve in water. The correct option is;
- the wax is a nonpolar substance that will not mix with polar water

Answer:
Cd2+ : 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 4d10 or [Kr] 4d¹⁰
Explanation:
Before proceeding to write out the electron configuration of Cd2+, we have to obtain the electron configuration of Cadmium (Cd),
Cadmium has an atomic number of 48, this means that a neutral cadmium atom will have a total of 48 electrons surrounding its nucleus.
The electronic configuration of Cadmium is;
Cd: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10
The shorthand notation is given as;
Cd: [Kr] 4d¹⁰5s²
Cd2+ means that it has two less electrons, hence it's electron configuration is given as;
Cd2+ : 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 4d10 or [Kr] 4d¹⁰
Answer:
c. benzoic acid
Explanation:
The given reaction is an example of a Grignard reaction:
When chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl) reacts with Mg in ether, an intermediate is formed (C₆H₅MgCl).
Said intermediate then reacts with CO₂ producing a benzoic acid salt (C₆H₅CO₂X), this salt is then neutralized with dilute HCl producing benzoic acid (C₆H₅CO₂H).
