Which statement is true regarding methane and ammonia?
sukhopar [10]
The options for given question are as follow,

1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding. 
<span>2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. </span>
<span>4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.
</span>
Answer:
            Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).

Explanation:
                   Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.

If the temperature of the earth's layers increases by about 90 degrees fahrenheit for every 1 mile from the surface and you are
bogdanovich [222]
The rate of change of the temperature of the Earth's surface is given to,
                                       90°F/mile
To determine the temperature x miles away from the surface, we multiply the depth by the given rate. This will give us the answer of,
                                  T = (90°F/mile)(90 mile)
                                      = 8100°F
Thus, the temperature 90 miles deep in the Earth's surface is equal to 8100°F.
