Question

Question (1) Nitric oxide is more soluble than Nitrogen and oxygen because ---------------------------- (2)compared to oxygen, Nitrogens -----------------------------------makes it more dificult for water molecules tosurround the Nitrogen molecules (3) the high solubility of sulfur dioxide can be explained by its------------------------------------- (4)compared to Nitrogen,the ------------------------------------------- of ethylene makes it more soluble in water use these choices to fill the blankes (a)larger molecular size (b)ability to react with water (c)shorter bond lenght (d)polarity

Explanation / Answer

1)Nitrogen and oxygen are diatomic so they are nonpolar, so (d): is asking about polarity. 2)Nitrogen's bond length is different than oxygen. 3)sulfur dioxide reacts with water, so that more will disappear-(b)ability to react with water 4)The larger molecular size
