Student C: A big, greedy dog stealing away a bone from a smaller dog

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is defined as the bond which occurs when there will be transfer of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, potassium donating an electrons to chlorine atom will result in the formation of an ionic bond.

So, the analogy presented by student C, shows that greedy dog stole away the bone from a smaller dog. This is similar to an atom whose one valence electron is readily taken away by an electron deficient atom.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, student C: A big, greedy dog stealing away a bone from a smaller dog, presented a correct analogy.

Identify the intermolecular forces present in each of these substances nh3 hcl co co2
nasty-shy [4]
Intermolecular forces are forces of interaction that are operative between two different molecules. They are of follow types
1) Dipole- dipole interaction
2) Hydrogen bonds
3) vander Waal's forces

Depending upon the polarity and constitution molecule above forces are operable.

for instance, in case of ammonia, Hydrogen bonds exist because hydrogen atom is attached to electronegative element i.e. N

HCl and CO are polar molecules, so dipole-dipole interaction is operative in these molecules.

Finally in case of CO2, vander Waal's forces of interaction is operable because it is a non-polar molecule.

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D.phototropism

Explanation:

Phototropism is a type of tropism in which a plant or plant part responds to light. According to this question, a student wanted to investigate the effect of light on the growth of cress seedlings. The student used three different pots for the experiment.

Pot 1 was placed with light from above. Pot 2 was placed in a cupboard with no light. Pot 3 was placed in a window with light from one direction only. However, the image attached to this question shows that the plants in the different pots face different directions in response to light, which depicts phototropism
