C. Oxygen has a different attraction for electrons in H2O than in CO2

the covalent bond between Hydrogen-Oxygen and Carbon-Oxygen is different because the difference of electronegativity (the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself) between Hydrogen and Oxygen is a lot higher than the difference of electronegativity between Carbon and Oxygen. This difference in electronegativity results in separation of partial electric charge creating polar bonds and giving the molecule a polarity.

What is the energy of one mole of photons with a wavelength of 418 nm? (h = 6.63 10-34 J . s, N = 6.02 1023.)
FrozenT [24]

Answer:E = 9.54×10-²Joules

Explanation:

Energy of photon E = hc/¶

Where ¶ is the wavelength

Given h = 6.63×10-³⁴ c= H = 6.02×10²³ ¶ = 418nm = 418 ×10^-9

Substituting the values in the formula

E = 6.63×10-³⁴×6.02×10²³/418 ×10^-9

E = 9.54×10-²Joules

suggest why it is better to use light gates and a computer than to use a stopwatch and a ruler to measure the speed of a toy car
grandymaker [24]

Human response times are eliminated from time measurement using light gates. if the stopwatch is damaged, the data logger terminates it.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained. it is a time-based quantity. it is denoted by u for the initial speed while u for the final speed. its si unit is m/sec.

To measure the speed of a toy automobile, it is preferable to utilize light gates and a computer as opposed to a stopwatch and a ruler.

Because Light gates eliminate the effects of human reaction delays for measuring time. is damaged,

The stopwatch is stopped by the data logger. With no reaction time, the uncertainty is substantially reduced.

The average speed may be determined by measuring the distance between the two light gates.

Hence, it is better to use light gates and a computer than to use a stopwatch and a ruler to measure the speed of a toy car.

To learn more about the speed refer to the link;
