Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Marble is also known as calcium carbonate and its chemical formula is CaCO_{3}.

When it combines with vinegar then it results in the formation of calcium acetate which is a water soluble compound along with the release of carbon dioxide which occurs in the form of bubbles and water.

The reaction is as follows.

    CaCO_{3} + CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow Ca(CH_{3}COOH)_{2} + H_{2}O + CO_{2}

Whereas vinegar being a weak acid will not react with glass, copper and steel.

Two substances with empirical formula HNO are hyponitrous acid (M = 62.04 g/mol) and nitroxyl (M = 31.02 g/mol).(a) What is the
viva [34]

The molecular formula for hyponitrous acid is H2N2O2. and for nitroxyl is HNO.

The chemical compound HNO is also known as nitroxyl (common name) or Azanon (IUPAC name). In the gas phase, it is widely recognized. In the solution phase, the short-lived intermediate nitroxyl can develop. Nitric oxide (NO) is reduced to form the conjugate base, NO, which is isoelectronic with dioxygen.

By oxidizing hydroxylamine with CuO , HgO, and Ag 2 and by oxidizing hydroxylamine with N2O3 in methyl-alcoholic solution, we can create hyponitrous acid.

Why is it important to start at the zero mark of a ruler/meterstick + triple beam balance when making measurements?
sergeinik [125]
Because if you start at one for example you starting at a extra cm/m/mm. So when you get your measurement result it will be wrong by just one cm/m/mm. Hope this wasn't too confusing.

When an atom _______<br> an electron, it charge is negative .
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Gains

Explanation:

If it gains an electron it causes the atom to become negative since electrons are negative and an overall charge of an atom is neutral. Therefore, it would become negative.

Hope this helps :)

what are the relative strengths of intermolecular forces compared to the forces between ions in a salt or the forces between met
Sophie [7]
There are two kinds of forces, or attractions, that operate in a molecule—intramolecularand intermolecular. Let's try to understand this difference through the following example.



Figure of towels sewn and Velcroed representing bonds between hydrogen and chlorine atoms

We have six towels—three are purple in color, labeled hydrogen and three are pink in color, labeled chlorine. We are given a sewing needle and black thread to sew one hydrogen towel to one chlorine towel. After sewing, we now have three pairs of towels: hydrogen sewed to chlorine. The next step is to attach these three pairs of towels to each other. For this we use Velcro as shown above.

So, the result of this exercise is that we have six towels attached to each other through thread and Velcro. Now if I ask you to pull this assembly from both ends, what do you think will happen? The Velcro junctions will fall apart while the sewed junctions will stay as is. The attachment created by Velcro is much weaker than the attachment created by the thread that we used to sew the pairs of towels together. A slight force applied to either end of the towels can easily bring apart the Velcro junctions without tearing apart the sewed junctions.

Exactly the same situation exists in molecules. Just imagine the towels to be real atoms, such as hydrogen and chlorine. These two atoms are bound to each other through a polar covalent bond—analogous to the thread. Each hydrogen chloride molecule in turn is bonded to the neighboring hydrogen chloride molecule through a dipole-dipole attraction—analogous to Velcro. We’ll talk about dipole-dipole interactions in detail a bit later. The polar covalent bond is much stronger in strength than the dipole-dipole interaction. The former is termed an intramolecular attraction while the latter is termed an intermolecular attraction.
