Answer:

Sulfur dioxide (SO2)

⇒ Why is this the best option?

To determine the polarity of the molecule, there are two requirements. The first one has a variety of terminal atoms, whereas the second has a lone pair on the center atoms. The molecule is polar if one of the requirements is met; else, it is nonpolar. The oxygen atom is a terminal atom because it surrounds the sulfur atom, which is the center element in the SO2 molecule's Lewis structure. In this molecule, there are two terminal oxygen atoms. If we look at the first criterion, we can see that it is not met because it calls for the presence of two separate terminal atoms.

1. A crane lifts a 75kg mass a height of 8 m. Calculate the gravitational potential energy

koban [17]

Answer:

GP.E = 5880 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass = 75 kg

height = 8 m

Potential energy = ?

Solution:

The formula for gravitational potential energy is

GPE = mgh

m = mass in kilogram

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height in meter above the ground

Formula:

GP.E = mgh

Now we will put the values in formula.

g = 9.8 m/s²

GP.E = 75 Kg × 9.8 m/s²× 8 m

GP.E = 5880 Kg.m²/s²

Kg.m²/s² = j

GP.E = 5880 j

IRISSAK [1]

The statements that are correct about Diastereomers are:

Diastereomers are not mirror images of each other.
Diastereomers have the same molecular formula

<h3>What are Diastereomers?</h3>

Diastereomers are those compounds that have the same molecular formula but are not mirror images of each other.

Examples of diastereomers include:

cis and trans-2-butene,

D-threose and D-erythrose,

2-chloro,3-bromobutane.

Therefore Diastereomers are not mirror images of each other and have the same molecular formula.
