1 answer:

3 0

<span>A covalent bond is a bond formed by atom sharing.
In water molecule, there are twice the number of hydrogen atoms than the oxygen atoms. Its structure is H-O-H. The electronegative difference between the H and O allows them to be polar because on side there is positive charge and on another side there is negative charge.</span>

Metal is a great conductor of heat while rope does not collect heat from the radiation from the sun as much or contain it while if metal is out in the sun all day it just keeps getting hotter and hotter and when you touch the rope it does not have much heat to transfer but the metal slide is hot enough to irritate your skin

What is the correct reaction for the dissociation (ionization) for a weak acid?

slava [35]

Answer: HA + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + H- (option #4)

Explanation: Since the acid is weak you have to use a ⇌ (equilibrium) sign. Equilibrium is denoted in a chemical equation by the ⇌ symbol. Also, when any acid dissolves into water, it produces hydronium (H3O+ or H+). Therefore, the fourth chemical reaction is your answer.

Compare the costs of using renewable resources to the costs of using nonrenewable resources.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Sample response:

The costs of using both renewable and nonrenewable resources depend on the extent of the use. If renewable resources are managed wisely, the use of the resource will not exceed the rate at which it is replenished. In this instance the cost of using renewable resources can be minimized, if not entirely eliminated. The cost of using nonrenewable resources is harder to minimize because nonrenewable resources cannot be replenished at the rate at which they are used. The environmental impact of using nonrenewable resources such as fossil fuels is greater than just the loss of the resource itself. Other impacts such as acid rain, global warming, and atmospheric pollution can result from the use of nonrenewable resources.
