If water was nonpolar, life as it exists now would be impossible. Water is the means by which ionic substances ( Fe^3+, Na^+, Ca^2+, K^+, etc) and polar molecules are distributed around and in the cells of organisms.
<span>Water is a major contributor to erosion of mountains because of its polar nature. It is able to dissolve almost all minerals because of its attraction for the positive and negative parts of the minerals that it encounters. </span>
<span>If it was nonpolar, it would not exist in the solid and liquid state on earth. It is the attraction of the oppositely charged ends of different water molecules that makes it assume the liquid and solid state under the temperature ranges found on earth.</span>
A) ice wedging
The “water freezing” part should help you get the right answer.
Answer:
A radionuclide is an atom that has excess nuclear energy, making it unstable. This excess energy can be used in one of three ways: emitted from the nucleus as gamma radiation; transferred to one of its electrons to release it as a conversion electron; or used to create and emit a new particle from the nucleus. Wikipedia
The existence of isotopes contradicts part of Dalton's original atomic theory because he said all atoms of a given element are identical have the same mass size and chemical properties.
Single replacement/displacement
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Type involves free element
Required
Type of reaction
Solution
Single replacement/displacement occurs when a more active element replaces another less active element in the compound to form a new compound
The activity of this element can be seen from the voltaic series
<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Ag-Pt-Au </em>
The more to the left, the element is more reactive (easily release electrons) and the stronger reducing agent
The general formula for single replacement :
A + BC ⇒ AC + B
From this general formula shows that <em>there are 2 free elements</em> on both sides (reactants and products)
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The mass of a compound is the sum of the masses of its component (a total is equal to the sum of its parts).
