London Dispersion forces

Explanation:

London dispersion forces exists between the molecules of CO₂. These are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules(symmetrical molecules).

  • This attraction sometimes makes non-polar molecules polar.
  • This is because of the uneven charge distribution caused by the constant motion of its electrons.
  • A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole induces the neighboring molecules to become distorted and forms dipoles as well.
  • The forces are the weakest of all electrical forces.

Which one of these statements about carbon tetrachloride fire extinguishers is true?
Fofino [41]

Answer;

-Prohibited from use by OSHA

Explanation;

-Carbon tetrachloride is a clear and colorless liquid with an odor similar to that of chloroform.It is employed as a chemical reagent for a number of purposes, as a raw material in chemical manufacture and is, used very widely as a reagent to extinguish fires.

-It volatizes very easily, is a non-conductor of electricity and, as noted above, freezes at very low temperatures.

-It is effective, due to the blanketing effect of its vaporized fumes, on many Class B or volatile, flammable liquid fires and because it will mix with certain volatile, flammable liquids and form a non-burning combination.

Which conclusion was drawn from the results of
torisob [31]

Answer;

-(2) An atom is mostly empty space.

Experiment

-Rutherford conducted the "gold foil" experiment where he shot alpha particles at a thin sheet of gold. The conclusion that can be drawn from these experiment is that an atom is mostly empty space.

-Rutherford found that a small percentage of the particles were deflected, while a majority passed through the sheet. This caused Rutherford to conclude that the mass of an atom was concentrated at its center, as the tiny, dense nucleus was causing the deflections.

Which process is an oxidation?
Zarrin [17]
<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

Hydrophobic compounds dissolve in
Anastaziya [24]
Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar molecules that group together to form micelles rather than be exposed to water. Hydrophobic molecules typically dissolve in nonpolar solvents (e.g., organic solvents).
