Do dipole orient themselves toward other dipole molecules?

Dipole molecules, those having a negatively charged pole and a positively charged pole, if they are in a liquid medium such as an aqueous solution, will orient themselves according to Coulomb's Law, with negative poles close to positive poles and distant from other negative poles.


Does soil gets attracted toward magnet?

No, soil is not magnetic and does not get attracted to magnets. Magnetic materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt are attracted to magnets due to their inherent magnetic properties, but soil does not contain enough magnetic materials to exhibit this behavior.


Why do ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in solution?

the solvent has to be water and the compounds have to be soluble. google solubility rules for more information on those. but they conduct electricity because of the positive and negative ions that are floating around in the water. these negative ions can make a light bulb glow when connected to the device in different levels of brightness depending upon the strength of the ions. also: strong acids(HCl) and bases (bleach) conduct electricity as well


When an acid solution is mixed with a basic solution?

When an acid solution is mixed with a basic solution, there will be a neutralization reaction in which hydrogen ions from the acid will combine with hydroxide ions from the base, to form water.


The hydrophobic phospholipid tails in the plasma membrane bilayer point toward?

The hydrophobic phospholipid (HPhoPL) tails in the plasma membrane bilayer points toward the other mirrored HPhoPL tailfrom the other side of bilayer. The polar sides point to the outside: the 'water'side of the cel content.

What do sodium ions move toward in an aqueous solution?

Sodium ions move toward the cathode in an aqueous solution during electrolysis. This is because the cathode is negatively charged, attracting the positively charged sodium ions.


Do satellites have gravity?

Gravity is a characteristic of space. Because of it, every material object encounters a force of attractiontoward every other material object. That leads to some interesting consequences:-- A satellite is attracted toward the earth.-- You are attracted toward the earth.-- The earth is attracted toward a satellite.-- A satellite is attracted toward you.-- The earth is attracted toward you.-- You are attracted toward a satellite.-- Two satellites are attracted toward each other.-- You are attracted toward Mars.-- The sun is attracted toward you.-- The sun is attracted toward a satellite.-- The sun is attracted toward my dog.-- You are attracted toward my dog, and also toward the sun.-- My dog is attracted toward Pres. Obama's golf balls....etc.


If only positive electrodes are placed in the solution, do the positively charged particles necessarily move away from the electrodes(For example, putting only a 0.5V vs. Ag/AgCl electrode)?

Yes, if only positive electrodes (anodes) are placed in a solution, positively charged particles (cations) in the solution would generally move away from the electrodes. This movement occurs due to electrostatic attraction and repulsion forces. When a positive electrode is placed in a solution, it carries a positive charge. Cations in the solution, which are positively charged ions, are attracted to the negative charge of the electrode. As a result, cations migrate towards the positive electrode, moving away from the solution. It's important to note that the specific behavior of particles in a solution can depend on various factors, including the concentration of ions, the nature of the electrolyte, and the presence of other electrodes or external electrical fields. However, in general, if only positive electrodes are present, cations will tend to move away from them.


Can sodium chloride conduct electricity when dissolved in water?

Yes. The ions from sodium chloride separate a sufficient average distance from one another when the salt is dissolved in water that the solution conducts electricity by motion of the cations toward a cathode and anions toward an anode.

Are tornadoes attracted to heat?

Tornadoes aren't exactly attracted to heat (i.e. the won't necessarily turn toward a warmer area), but they do form better when it is warm.


How do you know if your boyfriend is attracted to other men?

What is a cation and how do you get them?

= cation =An ion or group of ions having a positive charge and characteristically moving toward the negative electrode in electrolysis.An atom, or group of atoms with a positive charge. Cation exchange is the process whereby a cation in solution is absorbed by a solid, replacing a different cation. Thus, in soil science, if a potassium salt is dissolved in water and applied to a soil, potassium cations are absorbed by soil particles, and sodium and calcium cations are released.

Which of following is the first step toward finding a solution?

The first step toward finding a solution is defining the problem or issue clearly. This involves understanding what the problem is, why it is a problem, and what the desired outcome or solution should look like.
