Answer:
A non-polar liquid.
Explanation:
Whether a substance dissolves quickly or not depends on how strongly the molecules (or atoms of an element) of a substance are attracted to one another. These interactions between atoms and/or molecules are called intermolecular forces, or IMFs for short. There are several different ones, and these are distinguished from <em>intra</em>molecular forces which are the bonds holding atoms in the molecule together. Attached is a nice little summary of these forces to consider. Our decision lies within the fact that we must pick the substance that experiences the strongest IMF (the one with the most energy). As it turns out, a dipole in a molecule confers some charge distribution on the molecule which makes slightly positive and negative ends. These can attract each other, and it's called dipole-dipole interactions. It can technically happen in a mixture, but let's assume we're dealing with pure substances. Dipoles can only form in polar compounds however, so a non-polar liquid (which is composed of non-polar molecules), will lack these dipoles and therefore cannot form dipole-dipole interactions between the molecules. This results in only having something called dispersion forces (which really every molecule attraction has - so this is the only one). It is very weak, and since the attraction between these molecules is weak, they will tend to come apart, and evaporate. You can think of the IMFs like glue, and a weak glue will not hold the molecules together well, and they will evaporate away.
On the other hand, polar (from dipole interactions) compounds can have general dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen-bonding interactions (which is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction). H-bonding requires a Hydrogen bonded to either a Nitrogen, Oxygen, or Fluorine to do this. The main thing, is the non-polar ones don't have a dipole, and so they can't form a good intermolecular bond and evaporate quickly.
Water can H-bond, which is why it takes so long to dry and for it to evaporate in general. Nail polish, which is really a solution of acetone, has considerably weaker dipole-dipole bonds (compared to H-bonds), and evaporates quicker than water. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Explanation:
They gave us the masses of two reactants and asked us to determine the mass of the product.
This looks like a limiting reactant problem.
1. Assemble the information
We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.
Mᵣ: 239.27 32.00 207.2
2PbS + 3O₂ ⟶ 2Pb + 2SO₃
m/g: 2.54 1.88
2. Calculate the moles of each reactant
3. Calculate the moles of Pb from each reactant
4. Calculate the mass of Pb
Answer:
The correct answer is 2.1
Explanation:
The neutralization reaction involved in the titration is between a strong acid (HCl) and a strong base (NaOH), as follows:
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
According to this, 1 equivalent of HCl reacts with 1 equivalent of NaOH. The equivalence point is the point at which the amount of NaOH added reacted completely with the amount of HCl.
moles of acid = moles of base
moles HCl = moles NaOH
Ca x Va = Cb x Vb
Ca = (Cb x Vb)/Va = (0.16 M x 17 mL)/(350 mL) = 7.8 x 10⁻³ M
Since HCl is a strong acid, we calculate the pH of the solution directly from the concentration of acid:
[H⁺]= Ca = 7.8 x 10⁻³ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log (7.8 x 10⁻³ M) = 2.11
Therefore, the pH of the HCl solution is 2.1

I don't know how to get the answer sorry
Explanation:
db
The "mitochondria" produces ATP which is essential for active transport so it determines the rate of active transport
hope that helps
