Question

Identify whether the following terms belong to the macroscopic domain or microscopic domain of solutions:

a) Boiling point elevation
b) Henry's law
c) Hydrogen bond
d) Ion-dipole attraction
e) Molarity
f) Nonelectrolyte
g) Nonstoichiometric compound
h) Osmosis
i) Solvated ion

Answer 1

Boiling point elevation and osmosis are macroscopic properties, while molarity, nonelectrolyte, solvated ion, Henry's law, hydrogen bond, ion-dipole attraction, and nonstoichiometric compound are microscopic properties of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Boiling point elevation and osmosis are part of the macroscopic domain of solutions, as they can be observed and measured directly.

Molarity, nonelectrolyte, solvated ion, Henry's law, hydrogen bond, ion-dipole attraction, and nonstoichiometric compound are part of the microscopic domain, as they involve the interactions and behavior of particles at the molecular level.
