What causes valley air to move up surrounding mountains during the day?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

so the third one

Explanation:

During the day, the sun heats up mountain air rapidly while the valley remains relatively cooler. Convection causes it to rise, causing a valley breeze. At night, the process is reversed. During the night the slopes get cooled and the dense air descends into the valley as the mountain wind.

Which form of bonding has unequal sharing of electrons between two elements?
Vlad1618 [11]

Hello!

Your answer would be polar covalent.

Covalent bonds are where two atoms come together, and share electrons between each other, and are therefore, bonded.

In some cases of molecules that are bonded with a covalent bond, one of the atoms is more, you could call it selfish, and takes more of the electrons. A prime example of this is H20, or water. One of the atoms takes the electrons for longer, and therefore has a more negative charge because electrons are counted as negative charges.

This bond where an atom "hogs" electrons, is called a polar covalent bond, respective to the changing charges for the atoms.

So your answer is d.

Hope this helped!

Care to help me guys please​
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

A. Na₂SO₄ and HCl

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

Like dissolves like simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other

Explanation:

A. Ionic substances like Na₂SO₄ are composed of charged particles called ions. These ions are either positively charged or negatively charged, therefore, they are attracted to substances of opposite charges. Also, polar molecules like HCl contains two oppositely charged ends. A polar solvent consists of molecules with two oppositely charged ends, therefore, ionic substances as well polar substances dissolve in them according to the concept of like dissolves like.

Gasoline being non-polar will only dissolve in like substances, polar solvents.

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

The statement "Like dissolves like" simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other. For example gasoline, a non-polar substance will dissolve only in a non-polar solvent like kerosene. Also, HCl, a polar molecule will dissolve in a polar solvent like water.
