Each substance has a unique set of properties that depends on the kinds of atoms it has and how the atoms are connected, or bond

ed. Bonding is related to the electrons in an atom, and there are different kinds of bonds. As a result, some substances can have the same atoms but different bonds. Substances that are different but have the same atoms are called allotropes. Allotropes have very different properties. Diamond and graphite are well-known allotropes. Graphite is used in pencils for writing and is sometimes called lead. Diamond is colorless and transparent, and is one of the hardest substances known. Graphite is dark gray and soft. When we write, layers of graphite easily transfer from the pencil to the paper. Although they’re different, diamond and graphite each only contain one kind of atom—carbon. How do you think the bonds between carbon atoms might be different in diamond and graphite? Use household materials to build physical models to help you develop your ideas. Describe what you learned from your models. What other kinds of allotropes are there? What kinds of properties and atomic bonds do they have? Explian.

Both diamond and graphite are allotropes of carbon. Diamond has a high tensile strength but graphite does not.

<h3>What is a molecular model?</h3>

A molecular model is used to describe the actual behavior of a chemical compound based on the kind of bonds that exists in the molecule. Now we are talking about diamond and graphite.

Graphite is composed of hexagonal rings of carbon atoms that form layers that are held together by weak Van Der Walls forces hence they can slide over each other. This is the reason why graphite does not have a high tensile strength.

On the other hand, diamond is made up of octagonal rings of carbon atoms which are rigid and form a strong covalent network solid that explains why graphite has a high tensile strength.

Is tropism the response of a plant to light, gravity, touching . or water?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

all

Explanation:

it can be from all as some plants are hydrotrophic i.e. they get attracted to water but some get away from water. Same sunflower faces sun from morning to evening but some plants get burnt while in sun.

Negatively charged Adam or group of Adams is called a(n)
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Anion

Explanation:

Anion is an atom or group of atoms that are negatively charged.

Cations are positively charged

Anode is a positively charged pole that conducts electricity (remember electrolysis)

Cathode is a negatively charged pole that conducts electricity (remember electrolysis too)

1. Describe a procedure to separate a mixture of salt, sand, and water.
Brilliant_brown [7]
1.  A filter was used to separate the sand from the salt water solution (The process of decanting was used if a filer was not available).
2.  A Bunsen burner was used to boil away the water from the salt water solution leaving only salt.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

3. 4 g of a nonelectrolyte dissolved in 78. 3 g of water produces a solution that freezes at −4. 5∘c. what is the molar mass of
enyata [817]

3. 4 g of a nonelectrolyte dissolved in 78. 3 g of water produces a solution. The molar mass of the solute will be 17.94.

<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>

Molar mass of a substance is its mass in grams in per mole of  a solution.

Freezing point: Freezing point of a substance is a temperature at which a liquid starts to solidify.

Depression in the freezing point can be calculated

[Depression in freezing point of pure solvent—Freezing point of solution] =[(0) - (-4.5)] °C =4.5 °C

molar mass = Number of moles of solute m / Mass of solvent in Kg

3.4g / M x 1/ 0.0783 kg  = 43.42

Substitute AT by 4.5°C , Kr by 1.86 °C/m, and m by 43.42 m in equation (1) as follows:

1.86 x 43.42 / 4.5 = 17.94

Therefore, molar mass of solute to be 17.94.
