Moles are used conveniently in chemistry especially in stoichiometric calculations involving reactions. The unit of mole is a collective term that holds 6.022×10^23 particles. These particles is a general term for any small units of matter including molecules, atoms and sub-particles. This ratio of 6.022×10^23 particles to 1 mole is known to be the Avogadro's number. Its exact number is actually <span>6.0221409</span>×10^23. We use this constant in our stoichiometric calculation as follows:
15 moles oxygen * (6.022×10^23 molecules/ 1 mole oxygen) = 9.033×10^24 molecules of oxygen
Answer:
E) are electrically attracted to each other
Explanation:
Water molecule is polar because there is a difference in electronegativity values between hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen side of the molecule has a slight positive charge and the oxygen side is slightly negatively.
Positively and negatively charged ends cause water molecules to attract one another and for this reason water shows the properties mentioned in the question: cohesion, high specific heat, and high heat of vaporization.
