1. an alpha particle
gamma rays are formally massless, positrons and electrons (beta particles) have negligible mass, but alpha particles have about 4 amu of mass
The question is incomplete, the question is;
Which drawing best accounts for the polarity of methanol, CH3OH, and the bond polarities that make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity?
A) drawing (1) B) drawing (2)
D) drawing (4) C) drawing (3)
Answer:
B) drawing (2)
Explanation:
In Chemistry, the direction of dipole is shown from positive end to negative end.
The image that contains the options in the question asked has been attached.
We can see in image 2 that the oxygen atom was correctly designated as the negative end of the dipole while the carbon and hydrogen atoms were each designated as positive ends of the dipole in accordance with the magnitude of electronegativity difference between the two atoms. The net dipole moment is now taken in the direction shown in image 2. This is the correct answer.
To satisfy the octet rule, there has to be eight electrons in phosphorus's outermost shell. Phosphorus has five electrons in its valence shell, fluorine has seven. This means that phosphorus would have to bond to three fluorine atoms in order to have eight electrons in its valence shell without breaking the octet rule in any one of the fluorine atoms.
Answer:
The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.
The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.
Explanation:
Assuming Helium behaves like an ideal gas and temperature is constant.
According to Boyle's law for ideal gases, at constant temperature,
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₁ = 26 atm
V₁ = 19.0 L
P₂ = 1 atm (the balloon is said to expand till the pressure matches the pressure of the atmpsphere; and the pressure of the atmosphere is 1 atm)
V₂ = ?
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
(26 × 19) = 1 × V₂
V₂ = 494 L (it is assumed the balloon never bursts)
The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.
The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.
Hope this Helps!!!
