Surface tension _____.

1 answer:

Trava [24]3 years ago

5 0

Answer : The correct option is, (D) Surface tension is caused by cohesion between water molecules on the surface.

Explanation :

Surface tension : It is caused by the cohesion between water molecules on the surface or we can say that it is a tension of the surface of liquid caused by the attraction of the particles which are present on the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.

And due to the surface tension phenomena the shape of the water molecule tend to assume a spherical shape to attain the minimum surface area.

Hence. the correct option is, (D) Surface tension is caused by cohesion between water molecules on the surface.

nert xenon actually forms many compounds, especially with highly electronegative fluorine. The ΔH o f values for xenon difluorid

loris [4]

Answer:

For Xenon fluoride, the average bond energy is 132kj/mol

For tetraflouride,the average bond energy is 150.5kj/mol.

For hexaflouride, the average bond energy is 146.5 kj/mol

Explanation:

For xenon fluoride

105/2 = 52.5

For F-F

159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy of Xe-F = 79.5 + 52.5 = 132kj/mole

For tetraflouride

284/4 = 71

For F-F

159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy = 79.5 + 71 = 150.5kj/mol

For hexaflouride

402/6 = 67

F-F = 159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy = 67 + 79.5 = 146.5kj/ mol

A convex security mirror has a radius of curvature of 12.0 cm. What is the magnification of a pare 3.0 m from the mirror?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

magnification will be -0.025

Explanation:

We have given the radius of curvature = 12 cm

And object distance = 3 m

So focal length $f=\frac{R}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6cm$

Now for mirror we know that $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}$

So $\frac{1}{0.06}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{v}$

$16.66-0.333=\frac{1}{v}$

v = 0.750 m

Now magnification of the mirror is $m=\frac{-v}{u}=\frac{-0.750}{3}=-0.025$

If we use 1 millimeter to represent 1 light-year, how large in diameter is the Milky Way Galaxy?

storchak [24]

Answer:

d.100 meters

Explanation:

The diameter of the Milky Way Galaxy is approximately 100,000 light years.

Here we are using 1 millimiter (1 mm) to represent 1 light-year (1 ly). So, we can set the following proportion:

$1 mm : 1 ly = x : 100,000 ly$

and by finding x, we find the diameter of the Milky Way Galaxy in the scale used:

$x=\frac{(1mm )(100,000 ly)}{1 ly}=100,000 mm = 100 m$

so the correct answer is

d. 100 meters
