Moving from Ethanol through Propanol to Butanol the physical properties like boiling points, surface tension and viscosity increases because of the increases in intermolecular interactions between the molecules of given compounds.

Explanation:
                   Ethanol, propanol and butanol all have hydroxyl groups in common, means all have hydrogen bond intractions between their molecules. So, taking the hydrogen bonding interaction constant we are left with only the difference in the number of carbon atoms.
                    Butanol has the greatest physical properties than other two because it has four carbon atom chain. So, as we know the London Dispersion forces or Van der Waal forces increases with increase in molecular size and chain length of hydrocarbon.
                    Therefore, the strength of London forces is greater in butanol than other two while ethanol has the smallest chain comparatively hence, lowest physical properties.

Which is a polar molecule?
Sloan [31]
A polar molecule is when the arrangement of the atoms in molecules are unequal where one end of the molecule has a positive charge while the other end has a negative charge. Examples of a polar molecule are water, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. The opposite is called a nonpolar molecule.

Please help, thank you! Match each organism with the correct description.
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

1. A

2. D

3. E

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Plants are known as producers since they produce energy for themselves through photosynthesis.

2. The rabbit is a primary consumer since it’s herbivore and only feeds on producers for energy.

3. The tiger is a carnivore, and preys on other consumers for energy.

4. A human is an omnivore since it can gain energy from both producers and consumers.

5. Bacteria are know as decomposers since such category of organisms break down other organisms to gain energy.

2H2 + O2 2H2O
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

c ) 8

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of water produced = ?

Moles of hydrogen react = 8 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂     →     2H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen and water.

         H₂          :         H₂O

          2          :            2

         8           :           8

Thus, 8 moles of water will produced.
