Why is methane, CH4, a nonpolar compound?

The molecule methane has four Carbon-Hydrogen single covalent bonds. These covalent bonds are called nonpolar covalent bonds because. The consequence of this equal sharing of electrons is that there is no charge separation (dipole moment).

In a lab, silver nitrate,AgNO₃, is dissolved in water until no solid is observed in the container. Then, a solution of sodium ch
leva [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: A, C, E

Explanation:

After reading the information given, we can conclude that both reactants react to form a new solid product and another product that do not precipitate.

The reaction is:

                         AgNO₃ + NaCl   ⇒      AgCl  +  NaNO₃

a. Formation of a solid indicates that a chemical reaction occurred  This option is correct, precipitation indicates that a changed occurred in the solution due to a chemical reaction.

b. The initial disappearance of silver nitrate in water indicates a chemical reaction occurred  No, what is happing is that silver nitrate is dissolving in water, this process is a physical change because matter do not change its nature.

c. The color change of the solution indicates a chemical reaction occurred  This option is true, when a color appears suggest the formation of a new product.

d. A chemical reaction occurred when silver nitrate was added to water

This option is not correct, in this process silver nitrate is dissolving in water but it is not a chemical reaction because matter does not change is nature.

e. A chemical reaction occurred when the solutions were combined  This option is true because silver nitrate and sodium chloride react to form a new product (solid formation and change in color).

f. The lack of temperature change indicates a chemical reaction didn't occur This is false, some reactions do not need a change of color to happen.

Answer:

the sodium nitrate in this investigation is

a) the solute

b) undergoing chemical change

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

generally, solute is the substance which is added in solvent.

The substance which is taken in relatively more volume is the solvent.

so, here sodium nitrate (NaNO₃) is the solute which is dissolved in water (H₂O) , which is solvent.

The reaction between them is :

NaNO₃ + H₂O ⇒ Na⁺ (aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq) ;     (aq) denotes aqueous;

so, here sodium nitrate undergoes chemical change into aqueous sodium ions(Na⁺) and aqueous nitrate ions(NO₃⁻).

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Number of proton emmitted by laser=2.48*10^17proton

Explanation:

Energy is the ability to cause change; power is directly proportional to energy and its the rate energy is utilized.

Power=energy/time.

First we need to calculate the total energy used which is equal to the total power utilized.

E(total)= P( total) = 1.4W × 0.070 s =0.098J
