Explain why NO is more soluble in water than either N2 or O2. Fill in the following blanks. a. Compared to nitrogen, the of ethylene makes it more soluble in water.
b. The high solubility of sulfur dioxide can be explained by its
c. Nitric oxide is more soluble than nitrogen and oxygen because of its
d. Compared to oxygen, nitrogen's makes it more difficult for water molecules to surround the nitrogen molecules.

1. Polarity
2. Ability to react with water
3. Shorter bond length
4. Larger molecular size

Answer the questions about this reaction: nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions: oxidation half-reaction: reduction half-reaction: based on the table of relative strengths of oxidizing and reducing agents (b-18), would these reactants form these products? write the balanced equation: answer options: a. 0/na -> +1/na+1e- b. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) c. +1/na+1e- -> 0 /na d. -1/2i -> 0/i2+2e- e. no f. 4nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + i2(g) g. 2nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(aq) + i2(g) h. 4nai(aq) + 2cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + 2i2(g) i. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) j. 0/cl2+2e -> -1/2cl- k. yes
