Answer: Non polar solvents

Explanation:

Since with increasing the size of alkyl group hydrophobic nature increases and solubility in polar solvents decreases .

Hence Carboxylic acids with more than 10 carbon atoms, solubility is more in non polar solvents.

What is the oxidation state of an individual bromine atom in kbro2?
san4es73 [151]
The oxidation state of potassium ion K = +1
The oxidation state of oxygen ion O = -2
So, the oxidation state of O2 is = -2 x 2 = -4
Since, KBrO2 is neutral so, 
(+1) + (x) + (-4) = Zero 
-3 + X = Zero
So, X = +3 
The oxidation state of  individual bromine atom in KBrO2 is +3

Analyze: The first shell can hold a maximum of two electrons. How does this explain the valence of hydrogen
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Hydrogen has a valency of +1 or -1. Its electronic configuration is 1s1.

The 1s sub-level (first shell) is known to hold two electrons. This means that hydrogen may either loose this one electron in the 1s level to yield H^+ or accept another electron into this 1s level to form H^- (the hydride ion).

The formation of the hydride ion completes the 1s orbital.

If Mary drove 525miles in 7hours at an average speed of 75 miles per hour how much faster would her average speed need to be to
Makovka662 [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

30 miles per hour faster

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Distance that Mary drove as 525 miles
  • Time she took as 7 hours
  • Average speed as 75 miles per hour

We are supposed to determine how fast the average speed would be if she made the trip in 5 hours.

  • We know that speed is given by dividing distance by time taken.
  • In this case distance remained constant

Therefore, we can determine the speed when she took 5 hours

  • Speed = Distance ÷ time

           = 525 miles ÷ 5 hours

           = 105 hours

Thus, the new speed would be 105 miles per hours

But, initial speed was 75 miles per hour

Therefore, she would travel 30 miles per hour faster to cover the journey in 5 hours.
