disa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

Water (H2O) is polar due to the  bent shape of the molecule. The shape means most of the negative charge from the oxygen is one one side of the molecule and the positive charge of the hydrogen atoms is on the other side of the molecule. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Its shape is bent, and so since the oxygen is electronegative, it pulls the electrons towards itself.

Select all statements that are correct:____
topjm [15]

Answer:

A, C and D are correct.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the relationship between the vapor pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent and the vapor pressure of the pure solvent as stated by the Raoult's law:

P_{vap}^{solution}=x_{solvent}P_{solvent}

Since the solute is not volatile, the mole fraction of the solute is not taken into account for vapor pressure of the solution, therefore A is correct whereas B is incorrect.

Moreover, since the higher the vapor pressure, the weaker the intermolecular forces due to the fact that less more molecules are like to change from liquid to vapor and therefore more energy is required for such change, we can evidence that both C and D are correct.

Best regards.

hi:) anyone able to explain no.2 of what happens to particles of a solid that is heated until it melts? I don’t understand it. T
Viefleur [7K]
In a solid the particles are all really close together and stuck like that. As the solid melts and becomes a liquid the particles spread out. A solid won’t easily change its shape because the particles are bound together but in a liquid the shape is more fluid, take water when you pour it into a container it will change to fit the shape of a container this is because the particles aren’t as close and can move around. The particles of a solid change when it melts because it is changing states to a liquid.

What is the shortest half life
N76 [4]

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is element A

Explanation:

Using the graph, the element A's emission of radioactive particles ends approximately after 6 years...

A HALF-LIFE IS "HALF" OF THAT TIME PERIOD!

So if the radiation goes for 6 years the half-life is 6 divided by two which gives you 3 years!

The rest however have a longer half-life...

Because they all end at 14 yrs so their half-life in 7 years!

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

From the list of the instructions and tips below, select the statement that would NOT lead to a successful recrystallization O D
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

C. Precipitate the crystals as fast as possible

Explanation:

C. Precipitate the crystals as fast as possible

Precipitation if done fast , can lead to the formation of impure crystals , as impurities also get stuck inside the crystals. So it must be done slowly to obtain the pure crystals . Slower the crystals form , purer they are .

All the other options can lead to a successful recrystallization.
