A statement that accurately describes the dissolving process of a polar solute in water

C. Water molecules surround solute molecules.

Explanation:

By description, the "solvent" is the major composite and the "solute" is the lesser compound in solution. The roles/names may be modified if the compounds are commonly miscible. Water is an outstanding solvent because its polar water molecules makehydrogen bonds with ions and polar molecules, releasing ionic and polar covalent compounds to scatter easily in water.

B. Water molecules surround solute molecules.

Explanation:

the dissociation of nickel hydroxide is follows:

the concentration of hydroxide ion is

the equilibrium constant value of nickel hydroxide is = 6.1 * 10^-^1^6 and thus equilibrium equation can be written as:

thus, concentration of ni is 0.23 * 10^-^4 mol /l
