What is meant by solvation? a. nonpolar solute surrounded by polar solvent b. polar solute surrounded by nonpolar solvent c. ionic solute surrounded by nonpolar solvent d. ionic solute surrounded by polar solvent

D. Ionic solute surrounded by polar solvent

Explanation:

Solvation is the process by which solvent molecules surrounds solute ions or molecules.

The general rule for solvation is that like dissolves like. Like solutes and solvents would readily dissolve one another.

Polar solutes cannot dissolve non polar solvent when they surround them.

Nonpolar solutes surrounded by polar solvent

would not dissolve becausea they don't have the same properties. Non polar solutes do not have charges for polar solvent to surround and attract.

ionic solute are polar, when surrounded by nonpolar solvent they cannot be dissolved.

Ionic solutes like NaCl are easily and readily dissolved by water because both are polar substances. There is easy sepration of charges. Water is a polar covalent compound.

pure water does not conduct electricity very well. however, when certain substances are dissolved in water, the solution does conduct electricity. you can make a simple device that shows how well a solution conducts electricity. this device uses a flashlight bulb to indicate how well the solution conducts electricity. the better the solution conducts electricity, the brighter the bulb will glow.

explanation:

8 m/s because for him to get the same amount of energy as ray is putting out, bobby, who weighs half as much as ray, needs to run twice as fast.
