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 a certain gas occupies a volume of 19 L when the applied pressure is 9.5 atm, find the pressure when the gas occupies a volum
kakasveta [241]

Answer: 37.6 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume of gas (V1) = 19L

Initial pressure of gas (P1) = 9.5 atm

Final volume of gas (V2) = 4.8L

Final pressure of gas (P2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature remains the same, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

9.5 atm x 19L = P2 x 4.8L

180.5 atm•L = 4.8L•P2

Divide both sides by 4.8L

180.5 atm•L/4.8L = 4.8L•P2/4.8L

37.6 atm = P2

Thus, the final pressure is 37.6 atmospheres.
