Answer:
a) increases
b) decreases
c) does not change
d) increases
Explanation:
The vapour pressure of a liquid is dependent on;
I) the magnitude of intermolecular forces
II) the temperature of the liquid
Hence, when any of these increases, the vapour pressure increases likewise.
Similarly, the boiling point of a liquid depends on the magnitude of intermolecular forces present because as intermolecular forces increases, more energy is required to break intermolecular bonds.
Lastly, increase in surface area of a liquid does not really affect it's vapour pressure.
A) 1s on H and 3p on Cl
In HCl, the H atom has only one valance electron. Each share an electron an therefore a single covalent bond is formed between the two. The bond in HCl is therefore a result of an overlap between 1s orbital and ONLY ONE of the lobes of the 3p orbital of Chlorine.
Answer:
200 lb•ft/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Force (F) = 2 tons
Time (t) = 5 mins
Height (h) = 15 ft
Power (P) =?
Next, we shall convert 2 tons to pound. This can be obtained as follow:
1 ton = 2000 lb
Therefore,
2 tons = 2 × 2000
2 tons = 4000 lb
Next, we shall convert 5 mins to seconds. This can be obtained as follow:
1 min = 60 s
Therefore,
5 mins = 5 × 60
5 mins = 300 s
Finally, we shall determine the power of the pump. This can be obtained as follow:
Force (F) = 4000 lb
Time (t) = 300 s
Height (h) = 15 ft
Power (P) =?
P = F × h / t
P = 4000 × 15 / 300
P = 60000 / 300
P = 200 lb•ft/s
Thus, the power of the pump is 200 lb•ft/s
Answer: C) Non-metals can share pairs of electrons and form covalent bonds
Explanation: The principal reason why it is non-metals that can form covalent bonds is because of their electronegativities. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.
The participating atoms in a covalent bond have to be able to hold the shared electron in place & it is this attraction towards the centre of each participating atom that holds the electrons in place. Metals aren't electronegative, they don't attract electrons towards each other, they'd rather even push the electrons away from themselves (electropositive) to be stable. The closest concept of metals to shared electrons is in metallic bonding, where metals push and donate their valence electrons to an electron cloud which is free to move around the bulk of the metallic structure. But this is nowhere near the type of bonding that exist in covalent bonds.
