Sodium and chlorine create an ionic bond, creating table salt. Fluorine and potassium bond in the same way, creating an'inedible salt. Explain in words and labeled pictures how this potassium fluoride salt is created (Hint: Think about what happens with acids and alkalines/ bases are combined.) Describe why salts are able to dissolve in water. Use words and labeled pictures to help explain what is happening.

Which of the following is true when dissolving polar covalent (molecular) compounds in a polar solvent like water? When the compound breaks apart, its positive and negative portions create electrolytes and increases conductivity The compound breaks apart, but no positive and negative portions are created and therefore conductivity increases The compound remains intact (only intermolecular forces are broken). Therefore, electrolytes are not created and conductivity doesn't increase. The compound remains intact, but since it is polar, electrolytes are created. Therefore, conductivity increases.

Sodium hydroxide is a substance that causes severe burns. It is used in many educational laboratory activities, but because of its hazardous nature, care must be taken to ensure its safe use in the lab. Select the statements that are true regarding the nature of sodium hydroxide and the safety precautions that should be used when handling it in the laboratory. Sodium hydroxide solutions with high concentration can cause severe burns. If sodium hydroxide is spilled on skin or clothing, the contaminated clothing should be removed immediately and the affected area should be drenched with plenty of water. Medical attention should be sought if a large area is affected, or if blistering occurs. Eye protection should be worn at all times when handling any form of sodium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide solutions are particularly dangerous to the eyes. If sodium hydroxide is introduced to the eyes, flush the affected eye continuously with water for at least 15 min. Get medical attention…
