The polarity of a bond depends on the difference in electronegativities of the atoms involved in bonding. Greater this difference, greater is the polarity

1) In SCl2 we have the S-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: S = 2.5, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.5 = 0.5

2) In F2 we have the F-F bond

Electronegativity value: F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0-4.0 = 0

3) In CS2 we have the C-S bond

Electronegativity value: C = 2.5, S = 2.5

Difference = 2.5 -2.5 = 0

4) In CF4 we have the C-F bond

Electronegativity values: C = 2.5, F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0 -2.5 = 1.5

5) In BrCl we have the Br-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: Br = 2.8, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.8 = 0.2

Therefore, the increasing order of polarity is

F2 = CS2 < BrCl < SCl2 < CF4

the average speeds of gas molecules in.cylinders A,b,c,d are 0.01 m/s, 0.005m/s ,0.1 m/s and 0.5 m/s, respectively .which cylind
Darya [45]
<span>The average speed of the gas is related to the kinetic energy of the gas.  The kinetic energy of the gas is also related to the temperature of the gas. If the average speed of the gas is closer to zero, it means that it has very low motion or kinetic energy. This can be inferred that the gas has a very low temperature. At absolute zero, the motion of all the gas molecules stops. This means that the kinetic energy of the gas is also zero. Zero kinetic energy means zero average speed.</span> <span>So, the answer is cylinder B. The average speed of the gas in cylinder B is closest to zero.</span>

Through an uplift under the earth crust at a dirvergent boundary a _____ is formed.
postnew [5]

<span>Out of the  following given choices;</span>

<span>a. cliff               b. fault </span>

<span>c. plateau          d. mountain</span>

<span>The answer is b.  A divergent boundary is a line at which two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. It is caused by the two magma convection currents in the mantle moving in opposing directions (one clockwise, the other anti-clockwise) hence dragging the crust with them. Therefore the biggest force at the boundary on the crust is that of pulling. This causes <span>fractures and faults on the earth’s crust.</span></span>

The molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.7kJ/mol. How much heat must be absorbed to convert 50.0 grams of liquid water at 1
EleoNora [17]
During a phase change the temperature does not change since all of the heat is being absorbed in order to break the intermolecular forces.  Due to that, the formula will not need to have T in it and is actually q=nΔH(v).
n=the number of moles (in this case 2.778mol of water since you divide 50g by 18g/mol).
ΔH(v)=the molar heat of vaporization (in this case 40.7kJ/mol).
q=the heat that must be absorbed
q=2.778mol×40.7kJ/mol
q=113.1kJ
Therefore the water needs to absorb 1.13×10²kJ.

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