Answer:
Weatherization or weatherproofing is the practice of protecting a building and its interior from the elements, particularly from sunlight, precipitation, and wind, and of modifying a building to reduce energy consumption and optimize energy efficiency.
Answer:
A = B < D < C
C - S
Cl - Cl
F ← H
Si → O
Explanation:
The polarity of a bond increases with the increase in the difference in electronegativity. The dipole moment is represented with an arrow pointing the more electronegative atom.
A: carbon-sulfur
C - S
ΔEN = |EN(C) - EN(S)| = |2.5 - 2.5| = 0
B: chlorine - chlorine
Cl - Cl
ΔEN = |EN(Cl) - EN(Cl)| = |3.0 - 3.0| = 0
C: fluorine – hydrogen
F ← H
ΔEN = |EN(F) - EN(H)| = |4.0 - 2.1| = 1.9
D: silicon - oxygen
Si → O
ΔEN = |EN(Si) - EN(O)| = |1.8 - 3.5| = 1.7
The order of increasing polarity is A = B < D < C.
A good reason for a desert fox to show this pattern of behavior because hunting at night allows the fox to use its night vision.
<h3>What is Hunting?</h3>
Thi9s is commonly practised by predators such as fox in which they capture and kill other animals for food.
The fox has a good night vision which makes it able to hunt for animals during the night also. This is why option C is chosen as the most appropriate choice.

Thus BeF2 is of most covalent character.
Anyways, covalent/ionic character is a bit tricky to figure out; we measure the difference in electronegativity of two elements bonding together and we use the following rule of thumb: if the charge is 0 (or a little more), the bond is non-polar covalent; if the charge is > 0 but < 2.0 (some references say 1.7), the bond is polar covalent; if the charge is > 2.0 then the bond is ionic. Covalent character refers to smaller electronegativity difference while ionic character refers to greater electronegativity difference.
Now, notice all of our bonds are with F, fluorine, which has the highest electronegativity of 3.98. This means that to determine character we need to consider the electronegativities of the other elements -- whichever has the greatest electronegativity has the least difference and most covalent character.
Na, sodium, has electronegativity of 0.93, so our difference is ~3 -- meaning our bond is ionic. Ca, calcium, has 1.00, leaving our difference to again be ~3 and therefore the bond is ionic. Be, beryllium, has 1.57 yielding a difference of ~2.5, meaning we're still dealing with ionic bond. Cs, cesium, has 0.79, meaning our difference is again ~3 and therefore again our compound is of ionic bond. Lastly, we have Sr, strontium, with an electronegativity of 0.95 and therefore again a difference of roughly 3 and an ionic bond.

We are given that the concentration of NaOH is 0.0003 M and are asked to calculate the pH
We know that NaOH dissociates by the following reaction:
NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻
Which means that one mole of NaOH produces one mole of OH⁻ ion, which is what we care about since the pH is affected only by the concentration of H⁺ and OH⁻ ions
Now that we know that one mole of NaOH produces one mole of OH⁻, 0.0003M NaOH will produce 0.0003M OH⁻
Concentration of OH⁻ (also written as [OH⁻]) = 3 * 10⁻⁴
<u>pOH of the solution:</u>
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(3 * 10⁻⁴)
pOH = -0.477 + 4
pOH = 3.523
<u>pH of the solution:</u>
We know that the sum of pH and pOH of a solution is 14
pH + pOH = 14
pH + 3.523 = 14 [subtracting 3.523 from both sides]
pH = 10.477
