The resistance of the copper wire is 0.1039 Ω.

In calculating the resistance of a wire, the formula below can be used.

Resistance = (Resistivity*Length of wire)/(Cross-section Area)

The resistivity of copper wire is 1.72 x 10-8 Ωm. The length of the wire is 20.0 m and the area of the wire is 3.3103x10-6 square meters. The area of the wire is calculated by using the formula below.

Cross-section area= (π/4)(diameter)^2

Cross-section area=(π/4)(2.053 mm or 2.053x10-3 m)^2

Cross-section area= 3.3103x10-6 square meters

Calculating for the resistance of the wire:

Resistance= (1.72x10-8 Ωm * 20.0 m)/( 3.3103x10-6 m2)

Resistance=0.1039 Ω

The electron pair in a C-F bond could be considered Question 3 options: closer to C because carbon has a larger radius and thus
Leokris [45]

Answer:

closer to F because fluorine has a higher electronegativity than carbon

Explanation:

Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom in a bonding situation to draw the shared electrons of the bond closer to itself.

Electronegativity increases across the period and decreases down the group. A highly electronegative atom draws the shared electron pair of a bond towards itself.

When two atoms are bonded together, the electron pair is always drawn closer to the atom that has a higher electronegativity.

Hence, the electron pair in a C-F bond could be considered closer to F because fluorine has a higher electronegativity than carbon.

Which statement describes heterogeneous mixtures?
Artemon [7]
<span>The righ answer is the option A. They are made up of two or more pure substances that are not chemically bonded. A classicall expample ot heterogeneous mixtures are sugar and salt. Sugar is a pure substance, salt is also a pure substance, when you mixe them you form mixture where salt is still salt and sugar is still sugar, that is what "they are not chemically bonded" means. So you can separate them by physical media. </span>
