When copper chloride is put into water, it starts dissociating. The molecule of copper chloride breaks up to give a cuprous ion(Cu2+) and 2 Chloride ions(Cl-). The water molecules weakly dissociate to give hydrogen ions(H+) and Hydroxyl ions(OH-). The oppositely charged ions interact and form a weak bond known as hydrogen bond. This interaction results in the copper chloride dissolving in the water.

Describe what happens at the particle level when copper chloride is put into water?

When copper chloride is put into water, the ionic compound dissociates into its constituent ions: copper ions (Cu2+) and chloride ions (Cl-). These ions then become solvated by water molecules, forming a solution. The copper ions form a blue color in solution due to their electronic transitions.

What happens to cobalt chloride paper when its left in open air?

Cobalt chloride paper will gradually turn pink when left in open air due to the absorption of moisture. Cobalt chloride is a chemical compound that acts as a humidity indicator, changing color depending on the level of moisture in its environment.


Explain what happened at the particle's level when a solid dissolves in a liquid?

The particle's level raise a bit higher than usual. The solid gives more weight to the liquid, causing the solid and liquid to have a much larger particle level!!!!!


How does heat travel by conduction?

Heat, on a molecular or atomic level, is kinetic energy; fast moving particles are literally hotter. So, if a fast moving particle collides with a slower particle, there will be an exchange of energy. We know from basic physics that force equals mass times acceleration, so when a force is applied to a particle, that particle will accelerate. That is how heat is transferred particle by particle. All of this happens on such a small, sub-microscopic scale, that we do not see the mechanics of it, we just see heat being conducted.
