Answer: 1.25 miles per minute

Explanation:

Average speed is the rate of change of total distance covered per unit time.

i.e Average speed = (Total distance / Time taken)

Total distance covered = (25miles + 40 miles + 70 miles + 15 miles)

= 150 miles

Total time taken = ( 15 minutes + 30 minutes + 1 hour + 15 minutes) = 120 minutes

Since 60 minutes = 1 hour, the total time taken is 120 minutes

Now, apply Average speed = (Total distance / Time taken)

= (150 miles / 120 minutes)

= 1.25 miles per minutes

Thus, Joseph drove with an average speed of 1.25 miles per minute.

A 3.00 L flexible container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 153 kPa. If the pressure increases to 203 kPa and the temperature
dybincka [34]

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

 

P1V1 =P2V2

V2 = P1 V1 / P2

V2 = 153 x 3.00 / 203

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The answer is B. Van der Waals forces are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds.

Explanation:

In general, if we arrange these molecular forces from the strongest to weakest, it would be like this:

Covalent bonds > Ionic bonds > Hydrogen bonds > Dipole-Dipole Interactions > Van der Waals forces

Covalent bonds are known to have the strongest and most stable bonds since they go deep and into the inter-molecular state. A diamond is an example of a compound with this characteristic bond.

Ionic bonds are the next strongest molecular bond following covalent bonds. This is due to the protons and electrons causing an electro-static force which results to the strong bonds. An example would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl), which when separated is Na⁺ and Cl⁻.

Van der Waals forces, also known as Dispersion forces, are the weakest type of molecular bonds. They are only formed through residual molecular attractions when molecules pass by each other. It doesn't even last long due to the uneven electron dispersion. It can be made stronger by adding more electrons in the molecule. This kind of molecular bonds appear in non-polar molecules such as carbon dioxide.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
