Answer: <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the
<u>a</u></span>
<u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.
Explanation: Those substances are said to be flexible which can be
bent without breaking. There are many substances which are
hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to
strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their
amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the
crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding
plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
The answer to your question is
D: Unshared Pair
Hope this helps you :))))
The density of a material is the mass of the material per unit volume. Here the weight of the same metal is 44.40g, 40.58g and 38.35g having volume 4.8 mL, 4.7 mL and 4.2 mL respectively. Thus the density of the metal as per the given data are,
= 9.25g/mL,
= 8.634g/mL and
= 9.130g/mL respectively.
The equation of the standard deviation is √{∑(x -
)÷N}
Now the mean of the density is {(9.25 + 8.634 + 9.130)/3} = 9.004 g/mL.
The difference of the density of the 1st metal sample (9.25-9.004) = 0.246 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.060.
The difference of the density of the 2nd metal sample (9.004-8.634) =0.37 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.136.
The difference of the density of the 3rd metal sample (9.130-9.004) = 0.126 g/mL. Squaring the value 0.015.
The total value of the squared digits = (0.060 + 0.136 + 0.015) = 0.211. By dividing the digit by 3 we get, 0.070. The standard deviation will be
. Thus the standard deviation of the density value is 0.265g/mL.
