In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions), which affects lattice energy (a measure of the force need to pull ions apart), which affects the enthalpy of solution. based on ion sizes, rank these compounds by their expected heats of solution. most exothermic to most endothermic. substances are kf kl kbr kcl

Iknow the answer is a but i don't know why

Problem #3 (ch. 1, problem 15)the ideal gas law provides one way to estimate the pressure exerted by a gas on a container. the law isí‘ťí‘ť=푛푛푛푛푛푛푉푉mo re accurate estimates can be made with the van der waals equationí‘ťí‘ť=í‘›í‘›í‘›í‘›í‘›í‘›í‘ ‰í‘‰â’푛푛푟푟â’푞푞푛푛2í‘ ‰í‘‰2where the term nb is a correction for the volume of the molecules and the term an2/v2is a correction for molecular attractions. the values of a and b depend on the type of gas. the gas constant is r, the absolutetemperature is t, the gas volume is v, and the number of moles of gas molecules is indicated by n. if n = 1 mol of an ideal gas were confined to a volume of v = 22.41 l at a temperature of 0â°c (273.2k), it would exert a pressure of 1 atm. in these units, r = 0.0826.for chlorine gas (cl2), a = 6.49 and b = 0.0562. compare the pressure estimates given by the ideal gas law and the van der waals equation for 1 mol of cl2 in 22.41 l at 273.2 k. what is the main cause of the difference in the two pressure estimates, the molecular volume or the molecular attractions?

This question is about electrolysis. metal spoons can be coated with silver. this is called electroplating. suggest one reason why spoons are electroplated?
