Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When an object moves from initial point A to final point B is known as displacement.

Thus, when a runner starts from initial point A and then after running for 1 mile it reaches to the same point A this means that displacement of the runner is zero.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the statement runner's displacement is zero is true.

Which of the following diatomic molecules is joined by a triple covalent bond?
aivan3 [116]

The correct answer is C. In the periodic table nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and needs 3 more electrons to obtain an octet. So it would form three covalent bonds with another nitrogen and that would be a triple bond.

A is incorrect because oxygen is in group 6 and only needs 2 electrons to achieve an octet. So it would form two covalent bonds with the other oxygen to give a double bond.

B is incorrect because Cl is in group 7 and only needs 1 electron to achieve an octet. So it forms a single bond with the other Cl atom.

D is incorrect because helium is in Group 8, a noble gas, which means its valence shell is completely filled, hence no bonding can occur.

How can the speed of solvent molecules be slowed down?
Darina [25.2K]

Explanation:

The speed of molecules increases when temperature is increased as it will result in more number of collisions between the molecules. Thus, there will be  increase in kinetic energy of molecules and increase in the speed of solvent molecules.

Whereas on decreasing the temperature, the kinetic energy of molecules will decrease. This will result in less number of collisions between the molecules. Therefore, the speed of solvent molecules will slow down.
