Which compound has the highest boiling point? Explain your reasoning. CH4 or CH3CH3

2 answers:

4 0

The bigger molecule has more interactions and hence the higher b.p. CH3CH2OCH2CH3 is a bigger molecule than CH4 and CH3CH3, so has more dispersion forces. It also has dipole-dipole forces due to the polarised C-O bonds. CH3OH and CH3CH2OH have hydrogen bonds due to the very electronegative O atom bonded to the H atom

God bless

Answer:

The correct answer t is ; $CH_4$ has a lower mass compared to $CH-3CH-3$ which leads to a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

Boiling point of alkanes increases with increase number of carbon atoms in the chain.

This is because along with increase in carbon atom molar mass of alkane also increases by which surface area of molecule increases which further results in increase in weak vander wall forces among the molecule. Due to this molecules associates strongly with each other and boils at high temperature

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 360 cm2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the

Softa [21]

Answer:

$Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

Explanation:

We are given that a parallel- plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference V and then disconnected from the voltage source.

1 m =100 cm

Surface area =S= $\frac{360}{10000}=0.036 m^2$

$\Delta d=0.8 cm=0.008 m$

$\Delta V=100 V$

We have to find the charge Q on the positive plates of the capacitor.

V=Initial voltage between plates

d=Initial distance between plates

Initial Capacitance of capacitor

$C=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{d}$

Capacitance of capacitor after moving plates

$C_1=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{(d+\Delta d)}$

$V=\frac{Q}{C}$

Potential difference between plates after moving

$V=\frac{Q}{C_1}$

$V+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{C_1}$

$\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}+100=\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0S}$

$\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0 S}-\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}=100$

$\frac{Q\Delta d}{\epsilon_0 S}=100$

$\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}$

$Q=\frac{100\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.036}{0.008}$

$Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

Hence, the charge on positive plate of capacitor= $Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

As a pole of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin in the z-plane, while its phase remains constant, the d

Rudik [331]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

When the location of the poles changes in the z-plane, the natural or resonant frequency (ω₀) changes which in turn changes the damped frequency (ωd) of the system.

As the poles of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin then natural frequency (ω₀) increases, which in turn increases damped oscillation frequency (ωd) of the system.

ωd = ω₀√(1 - ζ)

Where ζ is called damping ratio.

For small value of ζ

ωd ≈ ω₀

Squids propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracting the cavity

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved using conservation of the moment, the system is made up of the squid plus the water inside, therefore the force to expel the water is an internal force and the moment is conserved.

Initial moment. Before expelling the water

p₀ = 0

the squid is at rest

Final moment. After expelling the water

$p_{f}$ = M V_squid + m v_water

p₀ = p_{f}

0 = M V_squid + m v_water

c_squid = -m v_water / M

The mass of the squid without water is

M = 9 -2 = 7 kg

let's calculate

v_squid = 2 8/7

v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

The negative sign indicates that the squid is moving in the opposite direction of the water
