Salt hydrates are an important class of PCMs. An inorganic salt hydrate (hydrated salt or hydrate) is an ionic compound in which the ions attract a number of water molecules, which are then trapped inside the crystal lattice. A hydrated salt has the generic formula MxNy. nH2O.
Answer: The correct answer is option (A).
Explanation:
Polar molecules are molecules in which formation of partial charges takes place due to which dipole moment gets created in a molecule. Molecules with polar bonds that s bond with partly ionic character. And water is of the example of polar molecule.
Electronegative oxygen atom in water molecule attracts the electron bond pair towards itself which generates partial negative charge on oxygen atom and partial positive charge on both hydrogen atoms.
Where as water has higher value surface tension due to strong intermolecular association of the water molecule due to presence of hydrogen bonding.And it is more denser is liquid state than in its solid state.
Hence,the correct answer is option (A).
The d subshell has 5 orbitals (with each being able to hold two electrons. As such, the d orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons.
<span>The "d" subshell can hold a maximum of _TEN_ electrons.</span>
<u><em>Latitude</em></u><em> - </em>Many factors influence the climate of a region. The most important factor is latitude because different latitudes receive different amounts of solar radiation. The maximum annual temperature of the Earth, showing a roughly gradual temperature gradient from the low to the high latitudes.
