A solvent was composed of two separate components: water and cyclohexane. If ethyl acetate was added to the solvent, into which

layer would it most likely dissolve? Explain?
Chemistry

Answer:

water

Explanation:

In chemistry, an important principle that guides the solubility of a solute in a solvent is the principle of like dissolves like.

A polar solvent will dissolve a polar solute and a non-polar solvent will dissolve a non polar solute.

Ethyl acetate is a polar solute. It will have to dissolve in water which is a polar solvent. Hence, ethyl acetate will dissolve in the water layer.

6 moles of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) are dissolved in enough water to make a 3M solution. What is the volume of the solutio
Yanka [14]

Answer:

2000 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles KMnO₄ = 6 mol

Molarity of solution = 3M

Volume of solution in mL = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Molarity  = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in L

3 M = 6 mol / volume of solution in L

volume of solution in L = 6 mol/ 3 M

volume of solution in L = 2 L

Now we convert the L into mL:

1 L = 1000 mL

2 L × 1000 mL / 1 L

2000 mL

What kind of chemical bond is an insulator most likely to have? A. covalent bonds B. ionic bonds C. hydrogen bonds D. metallic b
mars1129 [50]

Answer is:  A. covalent bonds.

Insulator most likely has covalent bonds, because it must have low electrical conductivity.

1) Substances with covalent bond not conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they not have free ions or electrons.  

2) Substances with ionic bond conduct an electric current in liquid, but not in solid state, because in liquids ions are mobile, contrary to solids where ions are fixed.

3) Substances with metallic bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons.
