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.

Calculează cantitatea de zahăr (C12 H22 O11) în ceaiul de dimineața dacă o linguriță conține 5g de zahăr?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Translated:

Calculate the amount of sugar (C12 H22 O11) in the morning tea if a teaspoon contains 5g of sugar?

Given parameters

Mass of sugar = 5g

Unknown:

Amount of the sugar =?

Solution:

A mole is the amount of substance that contains avogadro's number of particles i.e 6.02 x 10²³

Therefore, to find the number of moles contained in the teaspoon of sugar we use the expression below:

    Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ = (12x12) + (1x22) + (16x11) = 342g/mol

    Number of moles = \frac{5}{342} = 0.015mol of sugar

or 0.015 x 6.02 x 10²³, 8.8x10²¹atoms of sugar

Which rule for assigning oxidation numbers IS correct?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

B.) Oxygen is usually -2

Explanation:

Hydrogen is usually +1.

A pure group 1 element is not always +1.

A monoatomic ion can be a range of numbers. However, it must be a charge other than 0.
