42 Compared to a 10-mole sample of NaCl(s), a 10-mole sample of NaCl(l) has a different (1) number of ions (2) empirical formula (3) gram-formula mass (4) electrical conductivity | 4 | link | electricity requires "moving charge"
solids have ions that can't move |
43 Which property of an unsaturated solution of sodium chloride in water remains the same when more water is added to the solution? (1) density of the solution (2) boiling point of the solution (3) mass of sodium chloride in the solution (4) percent by mass of water in the solution | 3 | more water does not change the mass of NaCl in the water. | |
