Urea is an organic compound widely used as a fertilizer. Its solubility in water allows it to be made into aqueous fertilizer so

lutions and applied to crops in a spray. What is the maximum theoretical number of water molecules that one urea molecule can hydrogen bond with?

Answer:

8 water molecules

Explanation:

The hydrogen bond may be H-O~H-N or  H-N~H-O; in the first one, the hydrogen bond is between an oxygen atom and a hydrogen which is covalently bonded to a nitrogen atom. The second one is the hydrogen bond of a nitrogen atom with a hydrogen covalently bonded to a oxygen one. The first case would be the hydrogen bonds that water may form with the hydrogen of the urea; the second ones would be the hydrogen bonds that urea may form with water molecules. So, for each nitrogen in urea there would be a hydrogen bond, and for each hydrogen too. Finally, the oxygen in the urea molecule may form hydrogen bonds with water as well, but it has two lone pairs to donate, so the oxygen atom may form hydrogen bond with 2 water molecules:

N=(2 because of the oxygen atom of the urea)+(4 because of the hydrogen bonded to nitrogen)+2(because of the nitrogens).

N=8.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 250 mL at .8 atm of pressure. What volume will it occupy at 1.2 atm of pressure?
musickatia [10]
167 mL

P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = .8 atm
V1 = 250 mL
P2 = 1.2 atm

Solve for V2 —> V2 = P1V1/P2

V2 = (0.8 atm)(250 mL) / (1.2 atm) = 167 mL

Dylan changed a formless pile of sand into a sand castle. What other natural materials can be changed into art
amm1812

Other natural material such as clay, wood, and stones can be changed into art.

Clay is pliable and is very easy to be molded into different shapes and sizes.

Wood can easily carved into different shapes, also different patterns can be easily etched on wood.

Stones of different variety and from different geological sources are painstakingly converted into statues or portraits of different life forms and scenery.
