Polar molecules exhibit an unequal balance of charges between the individual elements of the compound. This is brought about by the large difference in their electronegativities. The H atom has the least amount of electronegativity. Then, it is a known periodic trend, that as you go downwards in a group, electronegativity decreases, and increase as you go from left to right. Thus, you can deduce that the most electronegative elements are found in the upper right corner which includes O, N and F atoms. Any bond created between Hydrogen and any of O, N and F atoms is a polar bond.
Answer:
Silicon is the basic material used to make computer chips, transistors, silicon diodes and other electronic circuits and switching devices because its atomic structure makes the element an ideal semiconductor.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, when two substances at different temperature are put in contact and an equilibrium temperature is attained, we can evidence that the heat lost by the hot substance (metal) is gained by the cold substance (water) and we can write:
Which can be also written as:
Thus, since we need the specific heat of the metal, we solve for it as shown below:
Best regards.
