What does it happen in smallest scale? 
<span>You have to look for "DUPRE' EQUATION" which treat about </span>
<span>"TWO-PHASE INTERFACIAL FORCEs". </span>
<span>At boundary surface between two aggregation phases, you may attribute upper energy level to molecules standing at the boundary zone. So, it has to define INTERFACIAL FORCEs WHICH ACT TO REMODEL SHAPE AND EXTENSION OF MEETING PHASEs. </span>
<span>In your case, Water's Droplet is a liquid phase surrounded by Air (e.g. gas phase) and Interfacial Forces act to dominate Boundary-Surface. </span>
<span>Mathematically, smallest possible Surface comes to SPHERICAL SHAPE. </span>

Is H3O+ polar or non polar? (explain please.)?
pishuonlain [190]
The overall molecule is Polar because the shape of the molecule is Trigonal Pyramidal, which means it has the lone pair electrons. Becuase of the lone pair the pulling is unequal.   

H3O+ has 3 polar bonds. 
To know if the bonds are polar or nonpolar find the difference of the element's electronegativity charge. 
H has electronegativity charge of 2.2, and O has 3.4.
Always subtract the smaller number from the greater one. 
So 3.4 - 2.2 = 1.2 
If the difference is from 0-0.4 the bond is nonpolar, but if it's from 0.5-1.9 the bond is polar. 
So, 1.2 is polar bond. So H3O+ has 3 polar bonds, and the overall molecule is polar too. 

A simple way to know if it's polar or nonpolar is to draw the lewis dot structure, and use VSEPR.

A chemical reaction yields 3 moles of lithium hydroxide (LiOH). How many grams of
grin007 [14]

72g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of LiOH = 3moles

Unknown:

Mass of LiOH = ?

Solution:

A mole of  substance is a unit used to make quantitative measures in chemistry.

It is the amount of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

The mole is related to mass using the expression below;

    Mass of a substance = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of LiOH = 7 + 16 + 1 = 24g/mol

 Mass of LiOH = 3 x 24 = 72g

A high temperature state of matter in which atoms lose their electrons
Sidana [21]
The phase of matter where atoms lose their electrons is plasma. It requires quite a bit of heat, too.
