For example, ionic compounds, which are very polar, are often soluble in the polar solvent water. Nonpolar substances are likely to dissolve in nonpolar solvents. For example, nonpolar molecular substances are likely to dissolve in hexane, a common nonpolar solvent.

Answer:

Solvents composed of polar molecules, such as water, dissolve other polar molecules, such as table salt, while nonpolar solvents, such as gasoline, dissolve nonpolar substances such as wax.

Explanation:

In chemistry, a common rule for determining if a solvent will dissolve a given solute is "like dissolves like." Solvents composed of polar molecules, such as water, dissolve other polar molecules, such as table salt, while nonpolar solvents, such as gasoline, dissolve nonpolar substances such as wax.

Calculate the enthalpy of formation of butane, C4H10, using the balanced chemical
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

-125.4

Explanation:

Target equation is 4C(s) + 5H2(g) = C4H10

These are the data equations for enthalpy of combustion

  1. C(s) + O2(g) =O2(g) -393.5 kJ/mol * 4
  2. H2(g) + ½O2(g) =H20(l) = 285.8 kJ/mol * 5
  3. 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) = 13/2O2 (g) + C4H10 - 2877.1 reverse

To get target equation multiply data equation 1 by 4; multiply equation 2 by 5; and reverse equation 3, so...

Calculate 4(-393.5) + 5(-285.8) + 2877.6 and you should get the answer.
