What happens to the particles of a ionic solid and a molecular solid when each mixes with water?

they desolve


When a molecular solid mixes with water the solute breaks down into individual molecules true or false?

true


When a solid dissolves in a liquid it seems to disappear into it. how is it possible?

The solid separates down to the molecular level - and they mix with the water molecules. We cannot see molecules with the naked eye !


When an ionic solid mixes with water do its ions repel water molecules?

Assuming you're talking about a solution in water, the answer is yes. However, don't think that each ion is always surrounded by a fixed number of water molecules in this case. In a liquid solution, the ions and water molecules are all in constant motion. One thing you can be pretty sure about is that ions of the same electrical charge will tend to keep away from one another, whereas the opposite charged ions attract each other. In the solution, water molecules are always in between the ions.


Can carbon dioxide attract carbon dioxide?

When carbon dioxide is a gas, the molecules repel each other. When carbon dioxide is a solid the molecules do attract each other, and bond in a crystalline structure.


When a molecular solid mixes with water do the covalent bonds within molecules break?

No, dissolving does not break covalent bonds. The molecules separate because intermolecular forces such as dipole-dipole attractions are disrupted.


The individual particles in an ionic solid are held together as a result?

The individual particles in an ionic solid are held together as a result of electrostatic attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.

Is LiBr a ionic solid?

Yes, LiBr is an ionic solid.


To dissolve an ionic solid in water, you must first disrupt the ionic bonds holding the ionic lattice together This is an endothermic process Yet many ionic solids have an exothermic heat of solutio?

More energy is released when water molecules surround the ions.
