Answer:

When hydrogen is attached to a more electronegative element, the electronegative atom becomes partially negative and the hydrogen atom becomes partially positive

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to draw electrons closer to itself when it is bound to another different chemical element through a covalent bond, that is, where electrons share, considering that molecule as isolated.

Because of electronegativity when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to a more electronegative atom, the hydrogen electron is strongly attracted to the other atom, leaving hydrogen partially positive.

Take for example an HCl molecule. The chlorine atom attracts electrons with greater intensity than hydrogen. Therefore, we say that chlorine is more electronegative than hydrogen. This forms an electric dipole (μ), which are two electric monopoles, with electrons tending to be more attracted to chlorine. Then the H ─ Cℓ bond will have a negative partial charge on chlorine (δ-) and a positive partial charge on hydrogen (δ +). So this is a molecule with electronegativity difference and is polar.

Modify the given fatty acid so that it represents the 18‑carbon fatty acid designated 18:2(Δ9,12). Draw any double bonds in the

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember the meaning of the nomenclature "18:2Δ9,12". Where 18 is the number of carbon atoms, 2 is the number of double bonds, and the numbers successive to Δ "delta" the position of the double bonds starting to count from the carboxylic -COOH end of the molecule.

In other words, the main functional group is a carboxylic acid. We have a total of 18 carbons. Additionally, we have 2 double bonds. On carbons 9 and 12.

Lets see figure 1

What is the purpose of galvanization?

frutty [35]

Galvanizing protects from rust in a number of ways: It forms a barrier that prevents corrosive substances from reaching the underlying steel or iron. The zinc serves as a sacrificial anode so that even if the coating is scratched, the exposed steel will still be protected by the remaining zinc.

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form the liquid product of sulfur trioxide (SO3). How much sulfur dioxide

taurus [48]

1) Balanced chemical equation:

2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) -> 2SO3 (l)

2) Molar ratios

2 mol SO2 : 1 mol O2 : 2 mol SO3

3) Convert 6.00 g O2 to moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

number of moles = 6.00 g / 32 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O2.

4) Use proportions with the molar ratios

=> 2 moles SO2 / 1 mol O2 = x / 0.1875 mol O2

=> x = 0.1875 mol O2 * 2 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 = 0.375 mol SO2.

5) Convert 0.375 mol SO2 to grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass SO2 = 32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol = 64 g/mol

=> mass SO2 = 0.375 mol * 64 g / mol = 24.0 g

Answer: 24.0 g of SO2 are needed to react completely with 6.00 g O2.

Before you start an investigation, you see the Hazard symbol for Electrical Hazard. What safety steps should you follow when con

Fantom [35]

Explanation:

Safety hazards means they are are the unsafe working conditions which can cause the workmen injury, illness, or death. Safety hazards are some of the most common risks at the workplace.

Electrical hazards may be defined as a place or a condition which is dangerous and where a person working can come in contact with electrical contact with some energized equipment or any electrical conductor. There is always danger or a chance for the workmen to get injury or get a flash burn while working.

The safety steps are :

1. Follow the instruction properly

2. Take proper safety measures like wearing gloves, shoes, not touching any live wires, etc.

3. Follow the clean up procedure properly.
