Why is water a polar compound?

Chemistry
1 answer:
anastassius [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Water is a unique molecule and thus consists of unique properties. It is considered polar because of its charges and its bent shape. The two oxygen are negative and the hydrogen is positive. This creates two poles, making the molecule polar. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding.

What is the average kinetic energy of 1 mole of a gas that is at 100 degrees Celsius?
Paha777 [63]
The average kinetic energy of an ideal gas is calculated as 

KE_avg = 3/2 kT

where T is the temperature in Kelvin and k=R/N_A; R is the universal gas constant and N_A is the number of moles.

Thus, upon substitution we get

KE_avg = 3/2(8.314/1)(100+273)
KE_avg = 3/2(8.314)(373)
KE_avg = 4651.683

The average kinetic energy of 1 mole of a gas at 100 degree Celsius is 4651.683 J.

C3H8 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
andreyandreev [35.5K]
First, we'll balance the equation
C3H8 + 5O2 --> 3CO2 + 4H2O
Next, we know that a gas at stp occupies 22.4 liters/mole, so we can find the number of moles of oxygen gas.
15 liters O2 * (1 mole O2)/(22.4 liters O2) = 0.67 moles O2
Now we know from our balanced equation that there are 3 moles of CO2 per mole of O2, so we can find the number of moles of CO2 we produce.
0.67 moles O2 * (3 moles CO2/5 moles O2) = 0.40 moles CO2
Now, we have the number of moles of CO2, and we know that one mole occupies 22.4 liters, we can find the number of liters
.40 moles CO2 * (22.4 liters CO2)/(1 mole CO2) = 9.0 liters of CO2
The answer is D

Which solution has the lowest pH? A. 1.0 M HNO2 B. 1.0 M CH3COOH C. 1.0 M HCOOH D. 1.0 M HNO3 E. 1.0 M HPO4–
denpristay [2]
The parameter pH is a measure of the substance's acidity or basicity. It is quantitatively equal to the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions. So, the lower the pH, the more acidic the substance, Otherwise, the higher the pH the more basic the substance. The pH range runs from 1 to 14, with 7 being neutral.

So, if we are asked to distinguish which of those have the lowest pH, we have to know the moles of H+ ions. Since all of them have a concentration of 0.1 M, concentration is not a factor. Thus, we just have to identify the strongest acid among the list. That is easy to answer because you only have to remember 7 strong acid occurring in nature: HCl, H₂SO₄, HNO₃, HClO₄, HClO₃, HBr, and HI. Since only HNO₃ is included in the list among the choices, the answer would be letter D.

How does a Camel prevent the loss of water from their body?​
Schach [20]

Camels lose less water through their urine and feces than many other mammals. Their kidneys concentrate water heavily, leading to salty urine. The intestines also reabsorb water from intestinal material as it is digested, so dry feces are produced.
