What type of compound is held together w/ electrostatic forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ionic compound.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element. the electrostatic attraction is created between bonded atoms.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The compound having ionic bonds generally have moderate to high boiling points and melting point because of greater electrostatic interaction. Their electrical conductivity are high and these minerals tend to dissolve in water.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion and  both atoms joint together through electrostatic interaction.

eimsori [14]

Answer: first option, the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input.


Explanation:


1) The work output measured in watts is the power of hair dryer measured in joules per second.


2) The hair dryer converts electrical energy from the wall outlet to mechanical and thermal energy: hot wind.


3) Nevertheless, you can never expect a 100% efficiency of the machines: due to friction, some energy is converted into useless energy.


So, efiiviency = power output / power input< 1 ⇒


power output = work output / time


input power = work input / time


⇒ work output / work input < 1


⇒ work output < work input.


Which is the first option: the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input

temperature is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another. Please select the best answer from the choices provide
Hunter-Best [27]

The statement above is FALSE.

Temperature is the degree of coldness or hotness of a body while heat transfer is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another object. Temperature tells us how cold or hot a body is and it can be measured in Celsius, Kelvin or Fahrenheit. The thermometer is the instrument that is used in the measurement of temperature. Change in temperature is an important indicator that is used in various ways in humans and external systems.
