Answer:

It is related to certain common meanings.

Explanation:

The word diffusion comes from the Latin diffusio (wide, dilated, scattered, something that is not appreciated correctly). The term diffusion is related to its Latin word because it is used to refer to the idea that something is scattered, scattered or spread. For example, the word diffusion is used to refer to the idea of the dissemination of news, culture or knowledge.

it means basically the same thing but can be used in different context. like if someone says, "lets diffuse the situation." it means lets separate it and find out what's going on with it. Like if you don't understand a sentence when you were younger your teacher would tell you to break down the sentence, and try to use context clues. What you are doing is diffusing the sentence so that your not looking at it as one big confusing sentence, your "breaking it down" and that helps you a lot. I hope I helped you, if not let me know and I can diffuse the topic a little more to make it more approachable and easy to understand. :)

A polar bond is formed with atoms having different electronegativities. The bonding electrons are attracted more towards the atom with greater electronegativity resulting in unequal sharing of electrons. Therefore the molecule develop partial charges and becomes polar. Polar molecules have dipole moment that is the partial charge on molecules due to differences in electronegativity between atoms.

A non-polar bond is formed with atoms having the same electronegativity, hence the bonded pair of electron is shared equally between atoms. Non-polar molecules have no moment.
Note that: symmetrical molecules having polar bonds are non-polar because the dipoles of the bond exert equal and opposite effect. Hence the dipoles cancel the charges.

Example: HCl
In HCl, Cl is more electronegative therefore Cl atom pulls the electron pair of the covalent bond towards itself and develops a partial negative charge. Consequently H develops a partial positive charge. This therfore leads to the formation of a dipole.

IrinaK [193]
  • The difference between single displacement reaction and double displacement reaction are:

Explanation:

in the chemical reaction an atom in a molecule is replaced by another atom forming the end product .this type of chemical reaction involved only two reactants for example zinc + copper sulphate give us copper sulphate + copper.double displacement reaction is the reaction in which two compounds react together to form two other compounds by mutual exchange of other ions is called double displacement reaction.this type of reaction is involved two or more than two reactants.for example AG and O3 + NaCl give us agcl + nano3
