Answer: Friction is a force that resists relative motion between two surfaces in contact. Depending on the application, friction may be desirable or undesirable.
Answer:
1) Oil is less dense than water so when oil spills, it spreads across the entire water surface.
2) The oil spreads very quickly with lighter oils such as gasoline.
3) Wind, Currents, and Warm Temperatures will cause Oil to spread quicker.
Answer:
Reduction
Explanation:
The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.
Oxidation:
Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
In given reaction fluorine gas gain two electron and form fluoride ions.
F₂(g) + 2e⁻ → 2F⁻(aq)
The given reaction is reduction because oxidation state is decreased from zero to -1.
Answer:
Via covalent bonds
Explanation:
Atoms in molecules are bonded together via covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are bonds that are formed by sharing of the valence electrons between two atoms.
The atoms can be of the same kind or of different kinds.
- In most molecules, the two atoms are connected by sharing of their valence electrons.
- This way, each atom can attain stability by becoming isoelectric with the nearest noble gas.
- Some molecules are monoatomic, some are polyatomic.
