n Group 15? 
Select one:

a. The bonds in ammonia are polar

b. The size of the nitrogen atom is the smallest

c. The ammonia molecules is the smallest among the hydrides of the elements in Group 15

The correct option is D.
The hydrogen atoms that are attached to the nitrogen atom in the ammonia molecule are capable of forming hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond that exist in the ammonia molecule is the reason why it shows higher boiling point compare to the other hydrides. Hydrogen bond occur in ammonia because ammonia is one of the most electronegative elements.

A compound with a molar mass of 100.0 g/lol has an elemental composition of 24.0% C, 3.0% H, 16.0% O and 57.0%F. What is the mol
ch4aika [34]

If I made no mistake in calculation, the given answer must be correct...(tried my best)



elements   :                        carbon     hydrogen    oxygen       Fluorine

 composition [C]                     24             3                16                57

M r                                          12             1                16                19

(divide C by Mr)                       2               3                 1                  3


(Divide by smallest value)       2                3                  1                  3

(smallest value = 1...so all value remained constant)

Empirical formula : C2H3OF3


if molar mas = 100 g per mole, then

first step calculate Mr. of empirical formula:  [= 100]


Them molecular formula = empirical formula

What keeps some of the radiation from the Sun in the atmosphere?
Yanka [14]
The appropriate answer is b. greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane have the ability to trap infrared radiation or heat in the atmosphere. Without these gases the Earth would be thirty degrees cooler than it is today. Pollution today has caused more of these gases to enter the atmosphere and this is the main cause of contemporary global warming.
Ozone in the stratosphere actually blocks another form of radiation called ultraviolet radiation. Geothermal energy is derived from hot rocks inside the earth.
