Answer:

The answer is d. water molecules near the surface produce more buoyant force than water molecules within the liquid

Explanation: Surface tension is defined as the attraction on the water of like particles to one another. Water molecules on a surface undergoes cohesion or the sticking together of one molecule to another of the same material.

Answer:

D)Water molecules near the surface produce more buoyant force than water molecules within the liquid.

Explanation:

Buoyant force that is provided by water molecules such that the object can float on the surface of the water. According to Archimedes principle for flotation to occur the buoyant force must be equal to the weight of the object.  If the buoyant force is less than the weight of the object, then the object will sink.

Which of the following molecules has one lone pair of electrons?
BigorU [14]
You can automatically rule out CH₄ since it has no lone pairs at all around the central atom. Water has 2. Ammonia is the only Lewis structure that contains one lone pair.

TIMED PLS HELP AND WILL GIVE BRAINLIST
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

19.4 g of alum, will be its theoretical yield

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2 Al + 2 KOH + 4 H₂SO₄ + 22H₂O → 3H₂ + 2KAl(SO₄)₂•12H₂O

Let's determine the amount of acid.

M are the moles contained in 1 L of solution or it can be mmoles that are contained in 1 mL of solution

M = mmol /mL

M . mL = mmol

We replace: 8.3 mL . 9.9 M = 82.17 mmoles

We convert to moles: 82.17 mmol . 1 mol / 1000mmol = 0.082 moles

Ratio is 4:2

4 moles of sulfuric acid can make 2 moles of alum

By the way, 0.082 moles of acid may produce ( 0.082 . 2) /4 = 0.041085 moles.

We convert moles to mass:

Molar mass of alum is: 473.52 g/mol.

0.041085 moles . 473.52 g/mol = 19.4 g

The ion [Co(NH3)6]2+
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Explanation:

The answer would be  B.

As paramagnetic with 3 unpaired electrons. Since there are 6 ligands around the Co+2 ion it isoctahedral and these ligands are neutral. This makes the overall charge on the complex +2 and therefore comes from the configuration for Co+2 which is [Ar] 3d7. Since it is in high spin you must fill all the orbitals with at least one electron and then pair up any that remain. If you do this, 3 unpaired electrons remain. Para magnetism occurs in substances with unpaired electrons.

Knowing the gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s what is your weight?
wariber [46]
Weight varies dramatically if we leave earths surface.On the moon for example acceleration due to gravity is only 1.67m/s2 A 1.0-kg mass thus has a weight of 9.8 N on Earth and only about 1.7 N on the moon
