Why is tape attracted to my skin? Give explanation

Chemistry
1 answer:
shutvik [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Since the tape has extra electrons, it has a negative charge. When you move your finger close to the tape, electrons in your skin are repelled and move away. This makes the skin on your finger tip have a slight positive charge. Since positive and negative attract, the tape moves toward your finger.

Explain why the boiling point of H2S with relative molecular mass 34 is lower than that of H2O with relative molecular mass 18​
Levart [38]

Answer and Explanation:

In H2O molecules, due to formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, there is molecular association. Large amount of energy is required to break these intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding is not possible in H2S. Hence, its boiling point is lower and is a gas.

A 15.75 g piece of iron absorbs 1097 joules of heat energy, and its temperature changes from 25°C to 177°C. Calculate the specif
vekshin1

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of iron (m) = 15.75 grams

heat (q) = 1097 J

initial temperature (t_{1}) = 25°C

final temperature (t_{2}) = 177°C

To find:

specific heat (c)

We know;

 c = q ÷ mΔT

where;

c represents the specific heat

q represents the heat

m represents the mass

t represents the temperature

c = \frac{1097}{15.75 * (177-25)}

c = 0.45 J/kg°C

<u><em>Therefore the specific heat capacity of iron is 0.45 J/kg°C.</em></u>
