The heat/enthalpy of vaporization of water represents the energy input required to convert one mole of water into vapor at a constant temperature. Intermolecular forces including hydrogen bondings of significant strength hold water molecules in place under its liquid state. Whereas the molecules experience almost no intermolecular interactions under the gaseous state- consider the way noble gases molecules interact. It is thus necessary to supply sufficient energy to overcome all intermolecular interactions present in the substance under its liquid state to convert the substance into a gas. The heat of vaporization is thus related to the strength of the intermolecular interactions.
Water molecules contain hydrogen atoms bonded directly to oxygen atoms. Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative and take major control of electrons in hydrogen-oxygen bonds. Hydrogen atoms in water molecules thus experience a strong partial-positive charge and would attract lone pairs of electron on neighboring water molecules. "Hydrogen bonds" refer to the attraction between hydrogen atoms bonded to electronegative elements and lone pairs of electrons. The hydrogen-oxygen bonds in water molecules are so polarized that hydrogen bonds in water are stronger than both dipole-dipole interactions and London Dispersion Forces in most other molecules. It thus take high amounts of energy to separate water molecules sufficiently apart such that they no longer experience intermolecular interactions and behave collectively like a gas. As a result, water has one of the highest heat of vaporization among covalent molecules of similar sizes.
Answer:
Corrosion
Explanation:
Silver, although known as a nobble metal, is also subject to corrosion process such as having silver tarnish when exposed to sulfur and air.
Tarnishing occurs on the surfaces of some metals such as brass, copper, and silver, which results in a corroded layer. Silver tarnish occurs from the chemical reaction that takes place when silver is exposed to sulfur which results in the formation of black Ag₂S
In order to restore the original silver surface, the silver tarnish (silver sulfide) layer is removed.
We have the statement presented here as follows;
The forks shown are made of silver (Ag). Some of the silver forks shown have lost their luster - they have become tarnished. This is an example of <u>Corrosion.</u>
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
The <u>tertiary structure </u>of proteins is related to the interactions between the amino acids of the <u>primary structure</u>. Thus, these interactions give it a specific three-dimensional configuration which is very sensitive to <u>functionality</u>.
For example, <u>allosteric inhibitions</u> are related to this concept. When the <u>inhibitor</u> changes the tertiary structure of the protein it loses all <u>activity</u> and for the catalysis of the reaction.
Thus, the primary structure (which is related to the specific <u>sequence of amino acids</u>) will determine the tertiary structure since the chain folds will be a consequence of<u> intra-amino acid interactions</u>.
The equilibrium means that amount that are coming equals the amount that are going.
