Answer:

B. Electrical charges of polar covalent bonds

Explanation:

Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot diagrams are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule and lone pairs of an electron that may exist in the molecule.

Polar covalent bonds are bonds that occur where a pair of electrons is shared unevenly between two atoms

The Lewis notation as an agreed convection, uses the delta sign to indicate polar covalent bonds when they occur in compounds. It shows that the electrons are shared unevenly.

Consider the example attached below. The Lewis structure for HF is given. the δ+ is used to show the electropositive Hydrogen atom while the δ- is used to show the electronegative Fluorine atom in the bond.

An inverted pyramid is being filled with water at a constant rate of 45 cubic centimeters per second. The pyramid, at the top, h

Answer:

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Explanation:

Length of the base = l

Width of the base = w

Height of the pyramid = h

Volume of the pyramid = $V=\frac{1}{3}lwh$

We have:

Rate at which water is filled in cube = $\frac{dV}{dt}= 45 cm^3/s$

Square based pyramid:

l = 6 cm, w = 6 cm, h = 13 cm

Volume of the square based pyramid = V

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times l^2\times h$

$\frac{l}{h}=\frac{6}{13}$

$l=\frac{6h}{13}$

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times (\frac{6h}{13})^2\times h$

$V=\frac{12}{169}h^3$

Differentiating V with respect to dt:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{d(\frac{12}{169}h^3)}{dt}$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$45 cm^3/s=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times h^2}$

Putting, h = 4 cm

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times (4 cm)^2}$

$=13.20 cm/s$

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Are ions of alkali metals larger or smaller than ions of alkaline earth metals from the same period

PtichkaEL [24]

Because size of an atom INCREASES from top to bottom and DECREASES from left to right on the periodic table. If to elements are in the same period they can't increase in size based on the up or down trend. Instead, notice that Alkali Metals are LEFT of Alkaline Earth Metals. Therefore, the Alkali Metal will be larger than the Alkaline Earth Metals.
