<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A covalent bond is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms combining. The atom which attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is more electronegative and the atom which does not attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is less electronegative.

In HCl molecule, more electronegative atom is chlorine atom having an electronegativity of 3.16 and hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1

So, majority of shared electrons will be found near to the chlorine atom in hydrochloric molecule.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

The measured value 24.00 g has an uncertainty of?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

±0.005 g

Explanation:

The uncertainty depends on whether the measurement was obtained manually or digitally.

1. Manual

The minimum uncertainty is ±0.01 g.

It may be greater, depending on random or personal errors

2. Digital

Most measurements of mass are now made on digital scales.

A digital device must always round off the measurement it displays.

For example, if the display reads 20.00, the measurement must be between 20.005 and 19.995 (±0.005).

If the measured value were 20.006, the display would round up to 20.01.

If the measured value were 19.994, the display would round down to 19.99.

The uncertainty is ±0.005 g.

The scale shown below would display a mass of 20.00 g

How are animal-like and plant-like protists are similar and different?​
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The main way animal-like protists differ from plant-like protists is in the way they get energy. Animal-like protists are heterotrophs. They have to eat other protists or bacteria in order to get energy, much as animals have to eat plants or other animals to get their energy. Plant-like protists, on the other hand, are autotrophs. They can make their own energy from the sun or other sources just as plants can.

Explanation:

hope that helps ☺️
