Many solvents expand to occupy greater volumes with increasing temperature.What happens to the concentration of a solution made with such a solvent as its temperature is increased?


A) Since concentration depends on how much mass is dissolved in a given volume,as the volume increases,the concentration decreases.
B) The concentration of a solution increases as the solute fits into the new spaces between the molecules.
C) Since it has a greater ability to dissolve more solute at a higher temperature,its concentration has decreased.
D) Since it has a greater ability to dissolve more solute at a higher temperature,its concentration has increased.

Fatty acid molecules can align to form a barrier called a bilipid layer,shown below.In this schematic,the ionic end of the fatty acid is shown as a circle and the nonpolar chain is shown as a squiggly line. Fatty acid molecules can align to form a barrier called a bilipid layer,shown below.In this schematic,the ionic end of the fatty acid is shown as a circle and the nonpolar chain is shown as a squiggly line.   From the schematic above: why do nonpolar molecules have a difficult time passing through the bilipid layer? A) The nonpolar molecules are too large for the space through which they need to pass. B) The nonpolar molecules are repelled by the polar water molecules. C) The nonpolar molecules have a difficult time getting past the ionic heads of the fatty acid molecules,which are surrounded by water molecules. D) Nonpolar molecules tend to bind with the bilipid layer,thus inhibiting their passage. From the schematic above: why do nonpolar molecules have a difficult time passing through the bilipid layer?

Account for the observation that ethyl alcohol, C2\mathrm { C } _ { 2 } H5\mathrm { H } _ { 5 } OH,dissolves readily in water but dimethyl ether,C H3\mathrm { H } _ { 3 } OC H3\mathrm { H } _ { 3 } ,which has the same number and kinds of atoms,does not.  Account for the observation that ethyl alcohol,  \mathrm { C } _ { 2 }   \mathrm { H } _ { 5 }  OH,dissolves readily in water but dimethyl ether,C  \mathrm { H } _ { 3 }  OC  \mathrm { H } _ { 3 }  ,which has the same number and kinds of atoms,does not.   A) The hydrogens on the dimethyl ether surround the molecule,shielding the inner atoms from interacting with the water. B) Because the carbons arrange themselves in a straight line,the ethanol can interact more easily with more water molecules,thus increasing its solubility. C) The high electronegativity of the carbon-oxygen-carbon bond on dimethyl ether creates a strong dipole charge on the ends of the molecule,making it highly soluble in water. D) Because dimethyl ether lacks an -OH group,it is significantly less polar than is ethyl alcohol and is not readily soluble in water.
