What is the characteristic of the polar water molecule?

Chemistry
1 answer:
NikAS [45]3 years ago
7 0

A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule. That is, it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged. The molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The bonds between the atoms are called covalent bonds, because the atoms share electrons.

Consider a gas in a container that can adjust its volume to maintain constant pressure. Suppose the gas is cooled. What happens
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The volume will also decrease.

Explanation:

This illustration clearly indicates Boyle's law.

Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature, provided the pressure remains constant. Mathematically, it is represented as:

V & T

V = KT

K = V/T

V1/T1 = V2/T2 =... = Vn/Tn

Where:

T1 and T2 are the initial and final temperature respectively, measured in Kelvin.

V1 and V2 are the initial and final volume of the gas respectively.

From the illustration above, the volume is directly proportional to the temperature. This implies that as the temperature increases, the volume will also increase and as the temperature decreases, the volume also will decrease.

The equilibrium: 2 NO2(g) \Longleftrightarrow⇔ N2O4(g) has Kc = 4.7 at 100ºC. What is true about the rates of the forwar
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

  • Initial: forward rate > reverse rate
  • Equilibrium: forward rate = reverse rate

Explanation:

2NO₂(g) → N₂O₄(g)   Kc=4.7

The definition of <em>equilibrium</em> is when the forward rate and the reverse rate are <em>equal</em>.

Because in the initial state there's only NO₂, there's no possibility for the reverse reaction (from N₂O₄ to NO₂). Thus the forward rate will be larger than the reverse rate.
