Robin and Alex are discussing how water molecules form when hydrogen and oxygen atoms combine. Robin writes the following chemic

al equation to explain the formation of water. However, Alex has a different opinion and suggests that the chemical reaction can be better represented by using the equation below. Why does Alex’s equation better represent the reaction?
A.
For every two molecules of water formed, one hydrogen atom is needed.
B.
For every two molecules of water formed, two hydrogen atoms are needed.
C.
The number of oxygen atoms is the same before and after the reaction.
D.
The amount of product formed should be more than the amount of reactants involved.

Answer:

Option C. The number of oxygen atoms is the same before and after the reaction.

Explanation:

When hydrogen combine with oxygen, water is formed. According to law of conservation of matter, matter cannot be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. So according to this law, the amount of reactants is equal to the amount of product produced after a chemical reaction and the number of oxygen atoms is the same before and after the reaction.

Answer:

C.

The number of oxygen atoms is the same before and after the reaction.

Explanation:

4H + O2 = 2H2O

The above chemical equation shows that the molecules of Oxygen at the reactant side is equal to that at the product side.

Compared to the inertia of a 1-kilogram mass, the
avanturin [10]

Answer:

D. 4 times as great

Explanation:

The inertia of an object is the resistance offered by the object to change in its motion or position.

Then concept of inertia is obtained from Newton's first law of motion which states that an object which is not subjected to any net external force will remain its position of rest or constant velocity of motion until some net external force acts on it. The object at rest will then start to move whereas the object moving at constant velocity will experience a change in its speed or direction of motion.

This reluctance to change position is greater, the more massive an object is as well as the higher the speed of motion of the object. Thus, inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object as well to the velocity of an object in motion.

From Newton's first law, inertia can be calculated as the force to be overcome to mobile an object, i.e. Inertia = F = ma

Where m is mass of object, a = acceleration of the object.

Objects on the earth's surface experience a constant acceleration, g.

Thus for a 1 kg mass, Inertia = 1 × g

For a 4 kg mass, inertia = 4 × g

The inertia of a 4 kg mass is four times as great as a 1 kg mass.

Lesson 01.04 Properties of Water
ryzh [129]

Answer:

1= In living organisms cells are composed of water or we can say that water is one of the important constituent of cells.

2= Hydrogen bonding import man properties to the water such as cohesion, high heat of vaporization, high heat capacity etc.

3= Because of high polarity, all polar substance get dissolve and make it universal solvent.

Explanation:

Solvent is the that part of solution which is present in large proportion and have ability to dissolve the solute. In simplest form it is something in which other substance get dissolve. The most widely used solvent is water, other examples are toluene, acetone, ethanol, chloroform etc.

Water is called universal solvent because of high polarity all polar substance are dissolve in it. Hydrogen is less electronegative while oxygen is more electronegative and because of difference in electronegativity hydrogen carry the partial positive charge while oxygen carry partial negative charge.

Hydrogen bond:

The hydrogen bond is the attraction between the toms which already take part in the other chemical bons. The one atom is hydrogen while other may be oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine.

The hydrogen bonding in water import man y properties in it such cohesion, high heat of vaporization, high heat capacity etc. The hydrogen bond hold the water molecules together.

Water create electrostatic interaction with other polar molecules. The negative end of water attract the positive end of polar molecules and positive end of water attract negative end of polar substance and in this way polar substance get dissolve in it.

Example:

when we stir the sodium chloride into water the cation Na⁺ ions are surrounded by the negative end of water i.e oxygen and anion Cl⁻ is surrounded by the positive end of water i.e hydrogen and in this way all salt is get dissolved.
