Scientists in a test lab are testing the hardness of a surface before constructing a building. Calculations indicate that the en

tire structure would sink by a certain amount for every additional floor that is added. If the maximum permissible limit for depression of the structure is 20 centimeters, how many floors can be safely added to the building?

From the given problem, a limit on the depression of a building is placed at 20 centimeters. To solve how many floors can be safely added, a quantity of how many cm will a building sink for each floor that is added is needed. Unfortunately, it is not found anywhere in the problem. However, we can provide a formula to solve for the depression. This is as follows:

Building depression < 20 cm

Building depression = (cm depression per floor) * (no. of floors)

Why is the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules categorized as cohesion
marishachu [46]

Answer: Because of the polarity of water molecules

Molecular <u>cohesion</u> is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type. Depending on the intensity of this attraction, a substance is in a solid, liquid or gaseous state.

In this sense, water (H_{2}O) can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds, because a water molecule consists of 2 hydrogen atoms attached to 1 oxygen atom.

The oxygen atom tends to monopolize more electrons and keeps them away from hydrogen. Then, it can be said that a water molecule will have a negative side (oxygen) and a positive side (hydrogen).

<u>Thanks to this polarity</u>, water molecules can stick together with the formation of<u> hydrogen bonds</u> to attract a partial positive charge of hydrogen and a more electronegative atom, such as oxygen.
