How many hydrogen bonds can CH2O make to water

Chemistry

VladimirAG [237]3 years ago
5 0
Hydrogen bonds are not like covalent bonds. They are nowhere near as strong and you can't think of them in terms of a definite number like a valence. Polar molecules interact with each other and hydrogen bonds are an example of this where the interaction is especially strong. In your example you could represent it like this: 

<span>H2C=O---------H-OH </span>

<span>But you should remember that the H2O molecule will be exchanging constantly with others in the solvation shell of the formaldehyde molecule and these in turn will be exchanging with other H2O molecules in the bulk solution. </span>

<span>Formaldehyde in aqueous solution is in equilibrium with its hydrate. </span>

<span>H2C=O + H2O <-----------------> H2C(OH)2</span>

Answer :

During diffusion, when the concentration of the molecules on both sides of the membrane is the same, the molecules will continue to move across the membrane in both the direction.

Answer 3 : It allows single-celled organism to reproduce, and other organism to repair damage tissues and grow.

Answer 4: The nucleus is an organelle that is surrounded by the cytoplasm, a jelly-like fluid.

Explanation :

Diffusion : It is a process where liquid moves from higher concentration to the lower concentration through permeable membrane.

When the concentration of the molecules on both sides of the membrane is same and the membrane is permeable membrane then diffusion will occur and the molecules will moves continuously across the membrane in both the direction.

Answer 3 :

Mitosis : It is a process of cell division. In this process, nucleus divides into two daughter cell and each daughter cell contains same number of chromosomes as present in parent nucleus.

The main purpose of the mitosis is to repair damaged tissues and growth.

Answer 4 :

Nucleus is a type of cell organelle. It is present in both animal and plant cells and it is the brain of the cell. It is present only in eukaryotic cell.

Nucleus is an organelle which is surrounded by the cell membrane which protects its from the other cells.

Cytoplasm is a jelly-like fluid which is present in the cell membrane which is made up of salt and water.

Helga [31]
True. Each contour line on a topographic map represent a certain elevation; the closer they are, the steeper the surface is. All points on a contour line are the same elevation.
