In a salt-water solution, which statement correctly identifies the solvent and solute?

  1. A

    Sodium chloride is the solvent because it is dissolved in water.

  2. B

    Water is the solvent because it dissolves the sodium chloride.

  3. C

    Both substances are solvents because they form a solution.

  4. D

    Neither substance is a solvent because dissolving is not a chemical reaction.

A sealed soda bottle is opened at constant temperature. Which explanation best accounts for some dissolved carbon dioxide escaping?

  1. A

    Opening the bottle lowers the pressure above the liquid, allowing some dissolved gas to escape.

  2. B

    Opening the bottle raises the pressure above the liquid, forcing more gas to escape.

  3. C

    Opening the bottle changes stirring, which increases the gas solubility.

  4. D

    Opening the bottle makes the liquid saturated by adding more dissolved gas.

    For most solid solutes in water, solubility usually increases as temperature rises.

  2. B

    For all solid solutes in water, solubility always increases as temperature rises.

  3. C

    For gases dissolved in liquids, solubility usually decreases as temperature rises.
