Answer:

Structure:

Differences- A polymer is a collection of a large number of molecules whereas a monomer is a single molecule.

A monomer is a single molecule, which has the ability to chemically bond with other monomers in a long chain. A polymer is a chain that is made when monomers bind with other monomers.

Similarities- They are both molecules

Properties:

Differences- Monomers have polyfunctionality, which is the capacity to form chemical bonds to at least two other monomer molecules. Polymers are chemically unreactive, solids at room temperature, malleable, tough, and are electrical insulators.

Similarities- They both makeup larger forms of matter.

Intermolecular Forces

Differences: Polymers are held together by covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, and dispersion bonds. Monomers are only held together by hydrogen bonds.

Similarities: They can both be bonded together by hydrogen bonds.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The answer for this question depends on the type of meniscus in the cylinder. If it is an upright meniscus like in water, the reading should be taken at the bottom of the meniscus. However if it is an inverted meniscus like in mercury, the reading should be taken at the top of the meniscus.

What are hybrid orbitals?

Ann [662]

Hybrid Orbitals: are used to describe the orbitals in covalently bonded atoms sp,sp2,sp3

You can find the hybridization by adding the number of bonded atoms and the number of lone pairs.

For example in BF3. The central atom (B) is bonded to three atoms. So the hybridization is sp2

In NH3, the central atom (N) is bonded to three atoms and has one lone pair. The hybridization is sp3

If atoms are not destroyed, what happens to them

Snowcat [4.5K]

The 1st law of thermodynamics doesn't specify that matter can be created nor destroyed, but that the total amount of energy in a closed system cannot be created nor destroyed though it can be changed from one form to another.
