Because in CH4 the valence electrons of Carbon are being pulled away from the nucleus with the same force (since all hydrogen has the same electronegativity).So charges are equally distributed throughout the atom and the atom is non-polar. In CH3Cl Cl has a different electronegativity than H, so charges aren't equally distributed and therefore the molecule is polar.
The correct is D.
Water is a polar molecule and it has polar bonds, which carry partially positive and partially negative charges. This polar bond increases the attraction between molecules of water and thus it requires a greater energy to break the bond between the molecules of water compare to carbon dioxide, which is a non polar molecule. Thus, water has a higher boiling point than carbon dioxide.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Scientists always perform tests and observe and measure in the physical world to prove their points or answer their questions.
Activation energy is the energy required by reactants to undergo chemical reaction and given products
Every reactant has some internal energy (sum of all kind of energy like kinetic energy, potential energy, mechanical energy, chemical energy etc). It needs some extra energy to undergo chemical reaction which is activation energy
All kinds of reaction whether exothermic or endothermic needs activation energy
Threshold energy = internal energy + activation energy
