Answer:

Explanation:

Polar molecules interact with other molecules of similar polarity to form solutions. Non-polar molecules do not interact the same way.

<u>Answer:</u>

The scientists predict the polarity of molecules and the distribution of non polar and polar molecules by finding out the net dipole moment of the molecular structure.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The net value of dipole moment is found out with the help of finding the bond angle between the atoms of the given molecule along with the distance between the atoms and the charge on the atoms of the molecule.

This will be applied in the appropriate formula which tells whether the molecule is polar or non polar.

What is one advantage of doing a feild experiment instead of a laboratory experiment

Ber [7]

Answer:

Field experiments can often have the potential to give scientists opportunities that are not possible in a lab setting.

Explanation:

Having people "act natural" in a lab setting is impossible to truly achieve, as we all know what happens to our mental state and behavior when we are being actively observed. This is also especially helpful when conducting wildlife research, as there are a myriad of different things influencing animal and plant behavior that would be nigh impossible to recreate perfectly in a controlled lab setting.

Field research can have its disadvantages as well, as it is very hard to only have one thing change (make an independent variable) in a wild environment with ever-changing weather, social effects, etc. Also, you, as the researcher, as causing an impact on the very location that you are observing, which can alter your results in unpredictable ways.

The thing to remember is that each type of study has its advantages and disadvantages; if they didn't, then we'd all do the same type of research! You have to weigh your research options and figure out which one works best for your situation :)

Draw a correct Lewis structure for XeI2 (Xe in middle, surrounded by I's ) that puts a 0 formal charge on all atoms. How many lo

Alona [7]

1) The Lewis structure will be:

I--I

In this structure, the xenon atom is surrounded by two iodine atoms, which are bonded to it through single bonds. Each iodine atom has one lone pair of electrons, for a total of 2 lone pairs on the central atom (xenon).

2) The molar mass of the gaseous compound is 0.416 g/mol.

To draw a correct Lewis structure for XeI2, we need to first count the number of valence electrons in the molecule. Xenon is a noble gas and has 8 valence electrons, while iodine has 7 valence electrons for a total of 23 valence electrons. To satisfy the octet rule and put a 0 formal charge on all atoms, we can use the following Lewis structure:

I--I

To find the molar mass of the gaseous compound, we can use the ideal gas law:

M = dRT/P

Where M is the molar mass, d is the density, R is the ideal gas constant, T is the temperature, and P is the pressure.

Given that the density of the gas is 0.3876 grams/142 mL = 0.002736 grams/mL, the temperature is 150 + 273 = 423 K, the pressure is 775 torr = 775/760 atm = 1.0132 atm, and the ideal gas constant is 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K.

We can calculate the molar mass as follows:

M = (0.002736 g/mL) * (0.08206 L·atm/mol·K / (1.0132 atm)) * (423 K)

M = 0.416 g/mol
