Why is water called "polar"?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago
6 0

Water (H2O) is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule. The shape means most of the negative charge from the oxygen on side of the molecule and the positive charge of the hydrogen atoms is on the other side of the molecule. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding. When solutes are added to water, they may be affected by the charge distribution.

if the Celsius temperature of a gas at constant pressure is increased from 10 Celsius to 20 Celsius the volume is
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

               The volume is increased.

Explanation:

                     According to <em>Charles' Law</em>, " <em>at constant pressure the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional to each other</em>". Mathematically this law is presented as;

                                                    V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂   -----(1)

In statement the data given is,

T₁  =  10 °C  =  283.15 K                    ∴  K  =  273.15 + °C

T₂  =  20 °C  =  293.15 K

So, it is clear that the temperature is being increased hence, we will find an increase in volume. Let us assume that the starting volume is 100 L, so,

V₁  =  100 L

V₂  =  Unknown

Now, we will arrange equation 1 for V₂ as,

                                                    V₂  =  V₁ × T₂ / T₁

Putting values,

                                     V₂  = 100 L × 293.15 K / 283.15 K

                                     V₂  = 103.52 L

Hence, it is proved that by increasing temperature from 10 °C to 20 °C resulted in the increase of Volume from 100 L to 103.52 L.

Why is it important for scientists to review and repeat the work of other scientists?
Veronika [31]

Scientists repeat experiments for reliability.  Experiments have to be repeated, since performing an experiment only once, does not prove a scientists theory on the experiment, which they develop by performing the experiment.  And then performing the experiment again or even many times to prove or disapprove their theories.  Btw, before an experiment begins, the scientist will make a hypothesis of what they believe will happen.  If proven correctly, they would then use those results they record throughout the experiment, from beginning to end to prove whether or not their hypothesis are correct or incorrect.  Click to let others know, how helpful is it
