Answer:

Detergents must have polar parts in their chemical structures.

Explanation:

Detergents and soaps are, in general, organic salts that contain a polar part capable of interacting and dissolving in water, which is why it is said to be a hydrophilic part, and the other apolar part, which is hydrophobic or lipophilic, that is, with a tendency to interact with fats and other nonpolar organic compounds.

What is the best example of a cyclic event?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

A cyclic event is one that happens repeatedly.

The appearance of Hailey's Comet is a cyclic event because it has happened in various occasions in the past on a regular schedule as predicted. We have every reason to believe that the appearance of Hailey's Comet every 75 years will continue to be happen until the comet ceases to exist.

A sample of a solid labeled as NaCl may be impure. a student analyzes the sample and determines that it contains 75 percent chlo
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The sample must contain impurity that is lower in atomic mass to sodium and since potassium has higher atomic mass to sodium, the answer is the sample contains NaCl and LiCl. We are sure already that the sample is not pure which rules out  option a and option b contains sodium iodide which cannot contribute to the increase in chlorine

Write an equation for the formation of bf3(g) from its elements in their standard states.
blagie [28]
In nature, boron is monoatomic. Therefore, its formula is B.
On the other hand, fluorine is diatomic. Therefore, its formula is F2

Now, the basic unbalanced equation is:
B + F2 .........> BF3

Now, we need to balance this equation. As you can see, we have two fluorine moles entering the reaction and 3 formed in the products.
Balancing the equation, we will reach the following balanced reaction:
2B + 3F2 .......> 2BF3
