<span>An insect would have an easier time walking on the surface of water than on the surface of ethanol. Water's stronger intermolecular forces lead to higher surface tension. Higher surface tension allows water to support the insect. I hope this helps.</span>
Elements in the third row can break the octet rule
A homogeneous mixture is made up of multiple different substances. (You can see different parts)
Ex: Cereal in milk or ice in soda
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is mixed well. ( you can’t see the different parts)
Ex: Rain or air
The answer is C to achieve an octet of valence electrons so they become stable
