A.  The compound CuCl is 500 times less soluble in sea water than it is in pure water.

pure water.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in a equilibrium reaction, the equilibrium will shift in a direction so as to minimize the effect.

Thus when a common ion is introduced to an equilibrium reaction, the equilibrium will shift in a direction where the concentration of common ion is decreasing.

When common ion such as from NaCl in sea water is introduced to an equilibrium reaction, the equilibrium will shift in a direction where the concentration of common ion is decreasing i.e. in the left side and thus solubility of CuCl further decreases.

rosa was looking for patterns to predict the products of chemical reactions. she recorded three similar decomposition reactions in the table.she should record 2licl + 3o2.

in the last row of the table. it is the thermal decomposition of chlorate lithium, hence, she should record these products as: lithium chloride ( 2licl ) and oxygen ( 3o2 )   2 > 2 licl + 3o2.
