Answer: The correct answer is NF_3

Explanation:

In NF_3 molecule, there are three bond pairs and one lone pair present in the molecule. In a molecule, lone pair present on the nitrogen atom will have a dipole moment in upward direction where as total dipole moment formed by three fluorine atoms will be more in magnitude and it will be directed in downward direction which means that the net dipole moment will be in downward direction. As shown in image attached.

Hence, covalent bond present between nitrogen and fluorine will become polar in nature.

So, the correct answer is NF_3.

Answer:

The correct option is NF_3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to select the compound which most likely contains polar covalent bonds.

In polar covalent bond, the electrons shared by the atoms spend a greater amount of time, on the average. This is due to electronegativity difference between the two atoms in the molecule.

NaCl is purely ionic bond strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positively charged Na and negatively charged Cl.

AlF_3 is ionic.

Br_2 is a non-polar molecule both atoms are equally electronegative, neither of them withdraws electron density from the single covalent bond between them.

In molecule,NF_3 there are three bond pairs and one lone pair present in the molecule. In a molecule, lone pair present on the nitrogen atom will have a dipole moment in upward direction whereas total dipole moment formed by three atoms of fluorine will be more in magnitude and it will be directed in downward direction which means that the net dipole moment will be in downward direction. As shown in image attached.

Hence, covalent bond present between the atoms  nitrogen and fluorine will become polar in nature.

The correct option is NF_3

<u>Answer </u>

B. f(x) = - (y/x)⁵

<u>Explanation</u>
A negative power means the reciprocal of that number raised to the positive value .
For example, a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ

So, for the question above.
f(x) = -(x/y)⁻⁵
      = - 1/(x/y)⁵
      = - (y/x)⁵

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (1,3), and the point (2,6) is
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

B. y=3(x-1)2 + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

vertex of the parabola is at the point (1,3)

let's verify, if the option B is the correct equation of the parabola.

y=3(x-1)^2 + 3\\ \\y=3(x^2+1-2x) + 3\\\\y=3x^2+3-6x + 3\\\\y=3x^2-6x + 6....Eq1

comparing to standard equationof parabola (standard quadratic equation), we get

a=3, b=-6 and c=6

to find the vertex we use formula for x- coordinate as x=-b/2a

x=-(-6)/2(3)\\\\x=6/6\\x=1

to find y put x=1 in the Eq1, we get

y=3(1)^2-6(1)+6\\\\y=3-6+6\\\\y=3

vertex =(x,y) = (1, 3)

thus vertex of the parabola from the equation y=3(x-1)2 + 3 is (1,3), thus verified

The sum of first three terms of a finite geometric series is -7/10 and their product is -1/125. [Hint: Use a/r, a, and ar to rep
Alchen [17]
Ooh, fun

geometric sequences can be represented as
a_n=a(r)^{n-1}
so the first 3 terms are
a_1=a
a_2=a(r)
a_2=a(r)^2

the sum is -7/10
\frac{-7}{10}=a+ar+ar^2
and their product is -1/125
\frac{-1}{125}=(a)(ar)(ar^2)=a^3r^3=(ar)^3

from the 2nd equation we can take the cube root of both sides to get
\frac{-1}{5}=ar
note that a=ar/r and ar²=(ar)r
so now rewrite 1st equation as
\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{ar}{r}+ar+(ar)r
subsituting -1/5 for ar
\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{\frac{-1}{5}}{r}+\frac{-1}{5}+(\frac{-1}{5})r
which simplifies to
\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{-1}{5r}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-r}{5}
multiply both sides by 10r
-7r=-2-2r-2r²
add (2r²+2r+2) to both sides
2r²-5r+2=0
solve using quadratic formula
for ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
so
for 2r²-5r+2=0
a=2
b=-5
c=2

r=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(2)}}{2(2)}
r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-16}}{4}
r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{9}}{4}
r=\frac{5 \pm 3}{4}
so
r=\frac{5+3}{4}=\frac{8}{4}=2 or r=\frac{5-3}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}

use them to solve for the value of a
\frac{-1}{5}=ar
\frac{-1}{5r}=a
try for r=2 and 1/2
a=\frac{-1}{10} or a=\frac{-2}{5}


test each
for a=-1/10 and r=2
a+ar+ar²=\frac{-1}{10}+\frac{-2}{10}+\frac{-4}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}
it works

for a=-2/5 and r=1/2
a+ar+ar²=\frac{-2}{5}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-1}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}
it works


both have the same terms but one is simplified

the 3 numbers are \frac{-2}{5}, \frac{-1}{5}, and \frac{-1}{10}
