Option B: Strength of chemical bonds

Hardness defines the strength, it can not be compared with surface roughness as a smooth surface can be harder or difficult to break than a rough surface. The mass and weight of a substance matters while comparing density of substance or how heavy it is but it is not directly proportional to the hardness of the substance. Thus, equal masses of two substance can not be considered equally hard. Hardness depends on the inter-molecular interaction or forces within a substance, if the inter-molecular interactions are strong or the strength of chemical bonds is strong then the substance is more hard.

Therefore, hardness is directly proportional to strength of the chemical bonds.

What is the necessary voltage to power the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride?
sammy [17]

4V  is the necessary voltage to power the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride.

To create sodium metal and chlorine gas, molten (liquid) sodium chloride can be electrolyzed. A Down's cell is the name of the electrolytic cell utilised in the procedure. The liquid sodium ions in a Down's cell are converted to liquid sodium metal at the cathode. Liquid chlorine ions are oxidised to chlorine gas at the anode. Below is an illustration of the reactions and cell potentials:

oxidation: 2Cl^{-} (l) → Cl_{2} (g) + 2e^{-}                                  E°= -1.36V

reduction: Na^{+} (l) + e^{-} → Na (l)                                    E°= -2.71V

overall : 2Na^{+} (l) + 2Cl^{-} (l) → 2Na(l) +Cl_{2} (g)              E°_{cell} = -4.07V

For this electrolysis to take place, the battery needs to supply more than 4 volts. The only means to obtain pure sodium metal is by this reaction, which also serves as a significant source of chlorine gas generation. Swimming pools and other surfaces are frequently cleaned and disinfected with chlorine gas.

What is the guiding formula for combustion reactions​
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Explanation: so a combustion occurs when we react a substance with oxygen .you commonly call this "burning'' .therefore combustion will always include oxygen in the equation and the product will include carbon dioxide and give off water vapours

Therefore the general equation for a complete combustion reaction would be

Fuel + O2 ------ CO2 + H2O

Lily is doing a science experiment with a substance in a sealed jar. At first, the substance's molecules are moving around each
Alex

The molecules will be more separated, and will have least amount of intermolecular force of attraction.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The molecules inside the jar of Lilly are moving around each other. This means the state of the matter present inside the jar is liquid. As Lily gives more energy inside the jar , the molecules inside the jar will get more separated as the kinetic energy of the molecules increase and the intermolecular force of attraction decreases as well as the intermolecular separation or distance increase. As the energy is continued to be supplied from outside, there will be a time when this liquid will reaches boiling point and will start to change into gas. After this point the intermolecular force of attraction will be least among molecules and their separation will be maximum.
