Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
As it is known that like dissolves like. So, water being a polar compound is able to dissolve only polar compounds.
Hence, a compound that is ionic or polar in nature will readily dissolve in water. Whereas non-polar compounds will be insoluble in water.
As
is a non-polar compound. Hence, it is insoluble in water.
On the other hand,
is a polar compound due to difference in electronegativity of chlorine and carbon atom there will be development of partial charges. Hence, there will be dipole-dipole forces existing between them.
Whereas
is an ionic compound and it will readily dissociate into ions when dissolved in water. Also, there will be ion-dipole interactions between sodium and nitrate ions.
Hence,
will readily dissolve in water.
Thus, we can conclude that the compounds correctly arranged in order of increasing solubility in water are
<
<
.
Explanation:
- Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.
So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.
Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.
- When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.
A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which
is positive.
- Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.
Hence, for an exothermic process value of
is negative.
Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.
- A combustion reaction is exothermic.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings,
is negative.
- For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.
