Answer:
D. The oxygen side is partially negative because electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.
Explanation:
The water molecule is polar by the virtue of covalent bonds and the hydrogen bonds within and between its molecule.
The oxygen side is partially negative because the electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.
Between oxygen and hydrogen that makes up the water molecule, oxygen is more electronegative.
An electronegative atom has more affinity for electrons. Since the electrons in the molecule of water is shared between hydrogen and oxygen, the more electronegative specie which is water draws the electron more to itself.
This leaves a net negative charge on the oxygen atom.
Answer:
K = 9.53 MeV
Explanation:
The kinetic energy that the alpha particle has emitted, is the energy in excess after removing the resting energy of the atoms and the helium nucleus that forms the alpha particle
Since energy and masses are related and cannot be
m₀ c² = 
c² + m_He c²+ K
K = c² (m₀ - m_{f} - m_He)
the mass of the Helium atom is 4 u
K = (3 10⁸)² (211,988868 -207.976652 - 4,002) 1,661 10⁻²⁷
K = 14,949 10⁻¹¹ (0.0102)
K = 1,527 10⁻¹² J
let's reduce 1 J = 6,242 10¹² MeV
K = 9.53 MeV
The most common value for the speed of light is 3*10^8 meters/second.
A more accurate number is <span>299 792 458 m/second, but that number is hardly ever used.</span>
Answer: D. Albedo
Explanation:
The proportion of total light incident on surface that is reflected back is called its albedo. These are typical features of an astronomical body. It is a dimension less quantity and its value ranges from 0 to 1. Light surfaces reflect larger amount of light than dark surfaces. This feature can be clearly seen on planet Mars and the Moon.
Thus, the fraction of the total radiation that is reflected by any surface is called its <u>Albedo.</u>
Water that is pure, will always freeze at 0 degrees.
