Carbon dioxide is a nonpolar molecule true of false

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]3 years ago
7 0
This statement is TRUE.

The polarity of the molecule is caused by unequal sharing of the electrons in the covalent bond. Even though the carbon dioxide molecule is made from two different atoms, two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom, the CO2 molecule is non polar because of the structure of the molecule.
The CO2 has a linear, symmetrical structure. This means that the two oxygen atoms with greater electronegativity are symmetrically placed around the carbon molecule. This arrangement of atoms causes a balance in the sharing of the electrons, making the molecule non polar.

How many molecules are in 1 mole of H2O
Olegator [25]

Answer:

A mole (mol) is the amount of a substance that contains 6.02 × 10 23 representative particles of that substance. The mole is the SI unit for the amount of a substance. There are, therefore, 6.02 × 10 23 water molecules in a mole of water molecules. Water (H2O) is made from 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Waves transport water in the deep ocean toward the coastlines. True or false
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Most likely true

Explanation:

because the speed of all ocean waves is controlled by gravity, wavelength, and water depth. ... Waves moving through water deeper than half their wavelength are known as deep-water waves. On the other hand, the orbits of water molecules in waves moving through shallow water are flattened by the proximity of the sea surface bottom.
