Based on observation of polar and non-polar molecules, polar molecules would attract each other more strongly.

<h3>What are polar and non-polar molecules?</h3>

Polar molecules are those molecules that can ionize or dissociate into their respective positive and negative ions when in an aqueous solution.

Nonpolar molecules, on the other hand, are not ionic i.e. not dissociating into ions when dissolved in water.

Polar molecules like water (H2O) contains an uneven distribution of cations (+) and anions (-), hence, would be more attracted to one another than nonpolar molecules that have an even distribution of ions.

Determine the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene. Benzene has a boiling point of 80.1°C and a boiling point
xeze [42]

Answer: The boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is 89.5^0C

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point:

\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m

where,

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for benzene which is a non electrolyte )

k_b = boiling point constant = 2.53^0C/kgmol

m = molality = 3.70

T_{solution}-T_{solvent}=i\times k_b\times m

T_{solution}-80.1^0C=1\times 2.53\times 3.70

T_{solution}=89.5^0C

Thus  the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is 89.5^0C

What is true for the energy involved in an explosion?
Sladkaya [172]
The correct answer is this one: "The amount of energy before and after the explosion depends on the type of reaction." The energy involved in an explosion is that t<span>he amount of energy before and after the explosion depends on the type of reaction, how strong and how weak; how destructive or less destructive.</span>

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

An oil spill is a catastrophic event in the environment. It can negatively affect both plants and wildlife while causing human suffering and economic losses. An oil spill needn't be on the scale of the Exxon Valdez or Deepwater Horizon disasters. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that 200 million gallons of used oil are disposed of improperly each year.

Spilled oil floats on the surface of the water, blocking the sunlight, from reaching the plants within the body of water. Spilled oil may also directly coat the leaves of plants -- where most of the work of photosynthesis occurs -- reducing or blocking out sunlight. Without sunlight, plants lack the energy needed to undergo photosynthesis.

An oil spill can impact photosynthesis by reducing water quality. Not only does the presence of oil directly poison the water, but the spill can kill sea life, birdlife and other wildlife that uses an aquatic habitat. A large die-off can increase bacteria levels and lower the pH of a body of water. The reduction in water quality can stress plants, essentially halting photosynthesis.
