6 0

The options for given question are as follow,

1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding.
2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. 
3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. 
4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. 
5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.

Answer:
Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).

Explanation:
Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.

What magma would have formed from the partial melting of mantle material?.

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Basaltic magma is formed through dry partial melting of the mantle. The mantle lies just below the crust of the earth. Basalts make up most of the ocean’s crust; this is why basaltic magma is typically found in oceanic volcanoes. See also what substances are emitted from fumaroles? What type of melting produces most basaltic magmas?
