Pls Help Me (20 Points) In one to two sentences, explain how to compare the strength of electrostatic forces between molecules in salt water to the strength of electrostatic forces between molecules in freshwater. Include a description of the data to be collected and how that data would allow one to draw conclusions about the relative strengths of the electrostatic forces in the two substances.

-Salts are composed of ions that form a tightly packed and ordered network, which is called a crystal lattice, and it is held together by ionic bonds.

Explanation: salts are ionic compounds, which are composed by oppositely charged ions (cations and anions) which are bonded each other by ionic bonds, in an ordered arrangement, often a crystalline solid.

-When a salt is added to a polar solvent like water, the ions interact with the solvent molecules via ion-dipole forces, which overcome the forces originally holding the ions together.

Explanation: the molecules of a polar solvent are dipoles because they have dipolar momentum (a difference in charge due to a electronegativiy difference). When a salt is dissolved in a polar solvent, it dissociates in ions. So, the resulting interactions between these species are ion-dipole forces.

-The ions are then isolated and stabilized in solution via these interactions, and when this occurs for most of the salt compound, it is considered soluble in that solvent.

Explanation: the ions in solution are surrounded by solvent molecules which stabilizes them. A salt which is enterely dissolved in a solvent is soluble in that solvent.

-Due to the nature of the interaction between ions and solvent molecules, a concentration of ions can be dissolved higher in water than in alcohol.

Explanation: water molecules have unique properties that make water an universal solvent. Due to these properties and its polarity, water can dissolve larger quantities of salt than other polar solvents such as alcohol.

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation

this is not my own answer, this is an answer for the same question by the user blahblahmali. i do not claim ownership of this account.
