    Base your answers to questions 8 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.

    Water, H2O, and hexane, C6H14, are commonly used as laboratory solvents because they have different physical properties and are able to dissolve different types of solutes. Some physical properties of water and hexane are listed on the table below.

    Base your answers to questions 14 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.

    Fruit growers in Florida protect oranges when the temperature is near freezing by spraying water on them. It is the freezing of the water that protects the oranges from frost damage. When H2O(ℓ) at 0°C changes to H2O(s) at 0°C, heat energy is released. This energy helps to prevent the temperature inside the orange from dropping below freezing, which could damage the fruit. After harvesting, oranges can be exposed to ethene gas, C2H4, to improve their color.

    Base your answers to questions 15 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.

    • A test tube contains a sample of solid stearic acid, an organic acid.
    • Both the sample and the test tube have a temperature of 22.0°C.
    • The stearic acid melts after the test tube is placed in a beaker with

      320. grams of water at 98.0°C.

    • The temperature of the liquid stearic acid and water in the beaker reaches 74.0°C.
