Question

1. Which property describes a material's ability to dissolve?A. SolubilityB. SaturationC. Boiling pointD. Volume2. Which of the following reasons explains why electrical cords are plastic coatings with metal wires on the inside?A. Both plastic and metal have high electrical conductivity.B. Both plastic and metal have low electrical conductivity.C. Plastic has high electrical conductivity, and metal has low electrical conductivity.D. Plastic has low electrical conductivity, and metal has high electrical conductivity.

Answer 1

A solubility is the answer

Answer 2

1. The answer is: A) Solubility. Regents Chemistry defines “solubility” as “the maximum quantity of a solute that may be dissolved in a given quantity of solvent at a given temperature to make a saturated solution.”

2. The answer is: D) Plastic has low electrical conductivity, and metal has high electrical conductivity. Plastic is classified as an “insulator” and metal is considered a “conductor”.
