What does non polar mean?

Chemistry

Hoochie [10]3 years ago

When atoms bond together to form molecules, they share or give electrons. If the electrons are shared equally by the atoms, then there is no resulting charge and the molecule is nonpolar.

A chemistry student must separate should barium sulfate from the aqueous solution. Equipment and glassware normally found in the
Elan Coil [88]
If there's just some barium put in an aqueous solution, then it should be something like this.
It's a mixture of a solution and an insoluble solid, so the easiest way to go is through filtration. (Also, I'm assuming the barium is cut into very small chips.)

In a line, simply filter the solution using a folded filter paper in a funnel, collect the residue in a beaker or flask, rinse it with distilled water and let it dry. (Or simply filtering it could be enough, depending on how far your teacher wants you to go.)

Stuff needed:
>filter paper (for separating the solid from the solution)
>funnel (to hold the filter paper)
>beaker or flask (to hold the filtrate)
>distilled water (to rinse the solid)
>spatula (to scoop up the solid)

Procedure:
>Fold filter paper and line the funnel with it. Place the funnel in the flask or beaker.
>Pour solution in. Then add water (I think using tap water might be fine in this case, but you can use distilled water if you'd like) to wash out the container with the solution of any solid you may have not gotten in the first try. Alternatively, you could use a spatula to spoon it onto the filter paper.
>Once everything has been filtered, pour some distilled water on the residue on the filter paper to wash away the solution.
>Take out the filter paper, open it up and let it dry.

This can be used in real life in many occasions. For example, when you make tea, you need to filter the leaves out. Or when you cook the pasta, you put it in a sieve to separate the pasta from the water. Or when you fish using fishing nets, you "filter" the fish from the water.

Select the correct answer.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

A binary covalent compound is composed of two different elements (usually nonmetals). For example, a molecule of chlorine trifluoride, ClF3 contains 1 atom of chlorine and 3 atoms of fluorine.

Rule 1. The element with the lower group number is written first in the name; the element with the higher group number is written second in the name. Exception: when the compound contains oxygen and a halogen, the name of the halogen is the first word in the name.

Rule 2. If both elements are in the same group, the element with the higher period number is written first in the name.

Rule 3. The second element in the name is named as if it were an anion, i.e., by adding the suffix -ide to the root of the element name (e.g., fluorine = F, "fluoride" = F-; sulfur = S, "sulfide" = S2-).

Rule 4. Greek prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the chemical formula for the compound. Exception: if the compound contains one atom of the element that is written first in the name, the prefix "mono-" is not used.

This gas law works only if temperature is recorded in ———— units
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Kelvin

Explanation:

  • Gas laws re the laws that relates properties of gases such as pressure, temperature and volume at different conditions.
  • Gas laws includes, Boyle's law, Charles law, grahams law and pressure law among others.
  • Temperature is one of the quantity of gases explained by gas laws. For gas laws to work, temperature should always be in Kelvin. Therefore, when given temperature in degrees, it is converted to Kelvin by adding 273, that is °C + 273 = K.

How is it possible to have thousands of different proteins when there are only 20 different amino acids?
STatiana [176]
Hi there!

Although there are only 20 amino acids, these amino acids can combine into an innumerable amount of combinations to form different and unique proteins. 

In case that doesn't make sense to you, I'll provide you with an analogy. You could be provided with 20 different LEGO bricks to work with. While there may only be 20 bricks, these bricks can combine into a vast amount of different formations, structures, etc. Amino Acids work in the same way.
