Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

How many chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine?
erik [133]

Answer:

5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.

Explanation:

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023*10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number represents a quantity without an associated physical dimension, so it is considered a pure number that allows describing a physical characteristic without an explicit dimension or unit of expression. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mole of the compound contains 6.023 * 10²³ atoms, 8.3 moles of the compound how many atoms does it have?

amount of atoms=\frac{8.3 moles*6.023*10^{23}atoms }{1 mole}

amount of atoms≅ 5*10²⁴ atoms

<u><em>5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.</em></u>

What is true of tectonic plates?
kupik [55]

Answer:

Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared to Earth's mantle. ... The lithosphere includes the crust and outer part of the mantle.
