Answer: C) Non-metals can share pairs of electrons and form covalent bonds
Explanation: The principal reason why it is non-metals that can form covalent bonds is because of their electronegativities. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.
The participating atoms in a covalent bond have to be able to hold the shared electron in place & it is this attraction towards the centre of each participating atom that holds the electrons in place. Metals aren't electronegative, they don't attract electrons towards each other, they'd rather even push the electrons away from themselves (electropositive) to be stable. The closest concept of metals to shared electrons is in metallic bonding, where metals push and donate their valence electrons to an electron cloud which is free to move around the bulk of the metallic structure. But this is nowhere near the type of bonding that exist in covalent bonds.
The correct answer is False
The rate of entropy change:
The rate of entropy change of the working fluid during the heat addition process is 3 kW/K
What is the Carnot cycle?
- The Carnot Cycle is a thermodynamic cycle made up of reversible isothermal expansion, adiabatic expansion, isothermal compression, and adiabatic compression processes in succession.
- The ratio of the heat absorbed to the temperature at which the heat was absorbed determines the change in entropy.
The entropy of a system:
The rate of heat addition is expressed as,
Q = 
The entropy of a system is a measure of how disorderly a system is getting. The rate of entropy generation during heat addition is,
Calculation:
<u>Given:</u>
= 400K
= 1600K
W = 3600 kW
Put all the values in the above equation, and we get,
= 
= 3 kW/K
The rate of entropy change is 3 kW/K

Answer:
Option C
CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH
Explanation:
Carbonxylic acids are compounds which has the general formula
R–COOH where R is an alkyl group.
Considering the options given in the question above,
For A:
CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ is an ether compound with general formula ROR' where R and R' are both alkyl group.
For B:
CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH is an alcohol with general formula ROH where R is an alkyl group.
For C:
CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH is a carbonxylic acid with general formula R–COOH where R is an alkyl group.
For D:
CH₃CH₂C=OCH₂CH₃ is a ketone compound with general formula RC=OR' where R and R' are both alkyl group
For E:
ClCH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂Br is simply an Alkyl halide with general formula XRX where X is an halogen (i.e F, Cl, Br or I) and R is an alkyl group.
From the above illustration, only option C contains a Carbonxylic compound.
