1. Is the mayonnaise water soluble?

2. While making rice, a housewife adds too much salt to a pot containing rice and water and then brings the pot to a boil. Immediately realizing her mistake she decides to add more water to the pot believing this will remedy the mistake. What do you think? Will her mistake be rectified by adding more water? (hint: when making rice some of the water added is absorbed by the rice, hence becoming fluffy, the remainder is evaporated).

  • Mass assembly questions

    Note: I put the questions in bold and italics with the answers underlined. This solution is provided in 293 words in an attached .doc file. It calculates mass of water and concentration of salt to determine the mass assembly problems.

  • Concentration of Salt

    42009 Concentration of Salt What is the concentration of g salt per 100 g water of a saturated solution in which 3.82 g of salt are dissolved in 9.54 g of water?

  • Density Problems

    If we put the uncooked egg in a glass of 1/2 water and 1/2 salt water, the egg might sink and might float depending on how much salt is in the water. Does that make sense? When the egg is more dense than the surrounding water, it will sink.

  • Movement of Water Across Semi-Permeable Membranes

    Injecting pure water in a person results in water rushing into the blood cells and bursting of cells (there is salt inside cells but no salt in water). In contrast, too little water results in cells shriveling by loss of water to the blood. II.

  • fresh vs. saltwater

    Sodium and chloride ions make up salt, and when we put salt in water, these ions separate from each other (we call this dissociation) and the salt dissolves.

  • Energy Conservation

    This is the reality in nature because salt water has a much higher density than pure water so the egg can float in salt water but not in pure water.

  • Colligative Porperties : Freezing Point Depression

    Examples: i = 1 for sugar in water i = 2 for sodium chloride in water, due to dissociation of NaCl into Na+ and Cl- Therefore, depression in freezing point will be more by salt than sugar.
