Answer:

A) increasing dispersion interactions

Explanation:

Polarizability allows gases containing atoms or nonpolar molecules (for example,  to condense. In these gases, the most important kind of interaction produces <em>dispersion forces</em>, <em>attractive forces that arise as a result of temporary dipoles induced in atoms or molecules.</em>

<em>Dispersion forces</em>, which are also called <em>London forces</em>, usually <u>increase with molar mass because molecules with larger molar mass tend to have more electrons</u>, and <u>dispersion forces increase in strength with the number of electrons</u>. Furthermore, larger molar mass often means a bigger atom whose electron distribution is more easily disturbed because the outer electrons are less tightly held by the nuclei.

Because the noble gases are all nonpolar molecules, <u>the only attractive intermolecular  forces present are the dispersion forces</u>.

A graduated cylinder initially contained 11 mL of water and then an 8 g block of wood is put into it, changing the volume to 15
Paul [167]

Answer:

Density is 2

Explanation:

Do the final volume of water divided by the inital

volume of water to get 4

15-11 = 4

Volume = 2

Mass = 8

Then to the equation m/v

8/4 = 2

Density = 2

goblinko [34]

Answer:

A, Animal-like protists are called protozoa. ... Like animals, they can move, and they are heterotrophs. That means they eat things outside of themselves instead of producing their own food

<h3>Answer:</h3>

87.02%

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Percent yield of a product in a chemical equation is the ratio of actual or experimental yield to theoretical yield expressed as percentage.

In this case we are given;

Mass of Zinc as 7.23 g

Actual volume of Hydrogen gas produced as 2.16 L

We are required to calculate the percentage yield of Hydrogen gas;

<h3>Step 1: Write a balanced equation for the reaction</h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between Zinc metal and Hydrochloric acid is given by;

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

<h3 /><h3>Step 2: Moles of Zinc metal that reacted </h3>

Moles are given by dividing mass with molar mass

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of Zinc = 65.38 g/mol

Therefore;

Number of moles = 7.23 g ÷ 65.38 g/mol

                             = 0.1106 moles

<h3>Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of Hydrogen gas produced</h3>

From the equation 1 mole of Zinc results in the formation of 1 mole of Hydrogen gas.

Therefore, Moles of hydrogen gas = Moles of Zinc × 1

                                                         = 0.1106 moles × 1

                                                         = 0.1106 moles

<h3>Step 4: Calculate the theoretical volume of Hydrogen gas produced.</h3>

At STP, 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 Liters

Therefore;

Volume of Hydrogen = Number of moles × 22.4 L

                                   = 0.1106 mole × 22.4 L

                                  = 2.477 L

<h3>Step 5: Calculate the percent yield </h3>

Percent yield = (Actual yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100%

                      = (2.16 L ÷ 2.477 L)× 100%

                     = 87.20%

Thus, the percent yield of hydrogen gas produced is 87.02%

Energy to thermal energy.
sergiy2304 [10]

A hair dryer converts "electrical energy" to "thermal energy".

Option: C

<u>Explanation</u>:

The "electricity" is converted to "heat energy" in a "wire coil". Here electricity process "air" out of "the hair dryer" with the help of forced convection. Most hairdryers use a nichrome wire coil that will not oxidize when heated and allowing it to "blow" the hair dry with high temperature air which speeds up evaporation. Thus "wire heats" the "air faster", in most of the "hair dryers" the "air" is only in "the barrel" for "half of a second".

Oxygen gas is esential for living beings why​
Darina [25.2K]
Oxygen plays a critical role in respiration, the energy-producing chemistry that drives the metabolisms of most living things. We humans, along with many other creatures, need oxygen in the air we breathe to stay alive. Oxygen is generated during photosynthesis by plants and many types of microbes.
