Hey there!
The answer to this question would most likely be the 3rd choice, (option C)
Increasing the pressure on a gas decreases the volume
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
~
Robert Boyle, the 17th century British chemist, first noticed that the volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when kept at a constant temperature. When working with ideal gases we use PV = nRT, but remember n, R, and T are all constant. Therefore we have:
PV(before) = PV(after)
P(0.5650) = (715.1)(1.204)
Answer;
The partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.
Explanation;
Water is a polar molecule because the electrons are not shared equally, they're closer to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen.
-Normally, the water molecule is a bent shape because of the pair of lone electrons - they repulse each other and exert a compression to the hydrogen atoms at a slight 104º angle. It is a bent molecular geometry that results from tetrahedral electron pair geometry.
-The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104 degrees bond angle. Therefore, the water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs.
Thus, If water were a linear molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker, then the partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Why melting and boiling point of water is high?
The reason for the high melting and boiling temperatures is the hydrogen bonding between water molecules that causes them to stick together and to resist being pulled apart which is what happens when ice melts and water boils to become a gas
