Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy present in the components of a mechanical system. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. All energy can be expressed in Joules (including thermal <span>energy</span>

Use the information below to explain why the atomic radius decreases down a group.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.

Why is identifying unknown compounds important to chemistry?
Galina-37 [17]
Determining the identity of substances is a critical part of chemistry because once the substance's identity is known, we can predict its behavior and understand the scenarios that it is involved in better.
For example, consider an industrial pipe where fouling (scaling) is occurring. If the compounds present in the scales are identified, steps may be taken to prevent and remove the scaling. This is one of many examples where identifying chemical substances is of high importance.

Which is less likely to be a relatable source of information the webpage of a university or the webpage a scientist who is tryin
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The web page of a university

Explanation:

A scientist can be more biased within coming to information about pretty much anything. I have had multiple science teachers who seem more biased on to something else and pretend that they're right just cause they know what they are doing.

Then the university would be a great choice because its controlled by a higher state, then also the consistency of being updated.

Methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) has fewer chlorine atoms than chloroform (CHCl3). Nevertheless, methylene chloride has a larger mole
icang [17]

Answer:

Explanation has been given below.

Explanation:

  • Chloroform has three polar C-Cl bonds. Methylene chloride has two polar C-Cl bonds. So it is expected that chloroform should be more polar and posses higher dipole moment than methylene chloride.
  • Two factors are liable for the opposite trend observed in dipole moments of methylene chloride and chloroform.
  • First one is the number of hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms present in a molecule. Hyperconjugation occurs with vacant d-orbital of Cl atom. Hyperconjugation amplifies charge separation in a molecule resulting higher dipole moment.
  • Methylene chloride has two hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms and chloroform has one hyperconjugative hydrogen atom.Therefore methylene chloride should have higher charge separation as compared to chloroform.
  • Second one is induction of opposite polarity in a C-Cl bond by another C-Cl bond in a molecule. Higher the opposite induction of polarity, lower the charge separation in a molecule and hence lower the dipole moment of a molecule.
  • Chloroform has three C-Cl bonds and methylene chloride has two C-Cl bonds. Therefore opposite induction is higher for chloroform resulting it's lower dipole moment.
