Good Morning everyone I have a Question.

Watch THIS video demonstration that shows limonene interacting with isoprene. Watch the demonstration and then read and answer the following questions.


After watching the demonstration, Angel, Kayla, and Jacob make the following statements about what they observed:

Angel says, "I think limonene molecules repelled the isoprene molecules since one kind of molecule is polar and the other is nonpolar. This repulsion caused the balloon to pop. "

Kayla says, "I think the limonene particles hit the balloon with enough force to pop it since the limonene particles are larger than the isoprene particles"

Jacob says, "I think the limonene particles dissolved the isoprene molecules since they are both nonpolar particles and ‘likes dissolves likes. ’"


Which student do you agree with and why? As part of your explanation, comment on why the rationales of the other students are not valid
