Answer: The answer is D on usa test prep

Explanation:The decrease in volume as a result in an increase in pressure is BEST explained by the fact that there is a large relative distance between gas molecules. This explains the property of compressibility, exhibited by gases under pressure.

Pushing down on the piston causes an increase in pressure and a decrease in the volume of the gas in the cylinder. This is BEST explained by the fact that the pressure is always inversely proportional with volume at constant temperature and number of moles of substance.

How many grams of the excess reactant remain assuming the reaction goes to completion and that you start with 15.5g of na2s and
tangare [24]
The reaction between Na2S and CuSO4 will give us the balanced chemical reaction of,
                                     Na2S + CUSO4 --> Na2SO4 + CuS
This means that for every 78g of Na2S, there needs to be 159.6 g of CuSO4. The ratio is equal to 0.4887 of Na2S: 1 of CuSO4. Thus, for every 12.1g of CuSO4, we need only 5.91 g of Na2S. Thus, there is an excess of 9.58 g of Na2S. The answer is letter C.

Is H3O+ polar or non polar? (explain please.)?
pishuonlain [190]
The overall molecule is Polar because the shape of the molecule is Trigonal Pyramidal, which means it has the lone pair electrons. Becuase of the lone pair the pulling is unequal.   

H3O+ has 3 polar bonds. 
To know if the bonds are polar or nonpolar find the difference of the element's electronegativity charge. 
H has electronegativity charge of 2.2, and O has 3.4.
Always subtract the smaller number from the greater one. 
So 3.4 - 2.2 = 1.2 
If the difference is from 0-0.4 the bond is nonpolar, but if it's from 0.5-1.9 the bond is polar. 
So, 1.2 is polar bond. So H3O+ has 3 polar bonds, and the overall molecule is polar too. 

A simple way to know if it's polar or nonpolar is to draw the lewis dot structure, and use VSEPR.
