Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges. The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges.
Answer:
Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.
Answer:
ΔH is negative and ΔS is negative.
Explanation:
Endothermic reaction -
The type of reaction in which energy is absorbed in the form of heat is known as endothermic reaction .
The reaction mixture usually get cooled after the reaction .( temperature decreases ) .
The sign of ΔH of an Endothermic reaction is positive .
<u>For the of process of freezing the liquid ethanol , energy in the form of heat is released and hence , exothermic reaction ΔH is negative .</u>
<u>In the process of freezing , liquid is converted to solid , i.e. , the randomness reduces , and hence , entropy also decreases , hence , ΔS is negative .</u>
NO₃⁻ is the polyatomic ion in this case.
Answer:
Sound waves are faster than light waves when traveling through the air.
(This statement is NOT true)
or
Sound waves and electromagnetic waves are both needed to talk on a cell phone
Explanation:
Sound waves need a medium to travel through, but light does not.
Also, the statement "Sound waves and electromagnetic waves are both needed to talk on a cell phone" might also be NOT true, since, as far as I know, cellphone calls need radio and sound waves, not electromagnetic waves.
