All three of the phosphorus-fluorine single bonds in pf3 are polar. in which direction should the polarity arrows point?

1 answer:

3 0

One of the causes of polarity is the unequal forces of the dipole forces due to differences in electronegativity. The more electronegative molecule tend to attract electrons, hence the polarity arrows point towards it. The electronegativity of Phosphorus and Fluorine is 2.19 and 3.98, respectively. Thus, it points outward towards the fluorine atoms.

Answer:

I think you are correct with your answer.

Explanation:

But I don't think that the explanation is correct because I think that it is the formation of both baking soda and water that makes it work...Vinegar doesn't make gas bubbles maybe because it hasn't reacted or maybe because it is not the right ingredient for the solution you are looking for. Thank you for the question.....Am not sure I really helped in your question but thank you..

A Herbig-Haro (HH) object is:_:_________.

Phoenix [80]

Given what we know about Herbig-Haro (HH) objects, we can confirm that they are born from the collision between a jet from a star and clouds of interstellar matter.

<h3>What are Herbig-Haro (HH) objects?</h3>

To put it simply, a Herbig-Haro (HH) object is what we observe as a bright spot in distant space. Upon closer observation we can observe that these giant bright patches are not lone objects, but in fact immense groups of interstellar matter.

<h3>How Herbig-Haro (HH) objects are formed.</h3>

The formation of one of these interstellar groups requires an immense amount of energy. This energy come from the speed at which the materials that form these objects collide.
As stated in the question, the jet released from a star in the process of being born smashes into a giant cloud of dust and interstellar material to form the Herbig-Haro (HH) objects.
This collision happens at hundreds of km/s. To put it into perspective, it would be roughly 500,000 miles per hour.

Therefore, we can confirm that option b, which states, "where a jet from a star in the process of being born collides with (and lights up) a nearby cloud of interstellar matter", is the correct choice for the question pertaining to Herbig-Haro (HH) objects.

If you put an egg on a sidewalk on a hot day in July and try to cook it you are using?

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Passive solar energy

Explanation:

First of all, you must know that you if you put an egg on a sidewalk you are dealing with energy from the Sun, i.e. solar energy, while geothermal energy is energy that comes from the inner of the Earth and biomass energy comes from plant or animal material.

The term passive solar energy refers to the fact that the energy of the sun is used directly for the intended task, which in this case is to cook the egg.

The term active solar energy refers to the fact that the energy of the Sun is converted into a different form of energy and then used for your purpose. For instance, if the energy of the Sun were used to produce electricity and then this electricity used to cook the egg, you would be using an acitve solar energy.
