Which statement about surface tension is FALSE?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: B (Items with densities lower than water will sink due to surface tension)

Explanation:

Surface tension is an intermolecular force exerted on the surface of water making it like a stretch elastic skin. Surface tension enables items with lesser densities than water, to float and slide on a water surface. Examples insects, leaves, paper etc

According to Archimedes principle an object denser than the fluid will sink. While objects less dense than the fluid will float.

Answer is (B) is false because items with densities higher then water will sink due to surface tension

Which term names the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

An isomer with a branched structure will require:
Contact [7]
The  branched  structure  isomer  will require   less  energy  to  melt  than the straight  chain  isomer

    explanation
Branched  structure  isomer    has  weak  intermolecular  forces  of attraction  as  compared  to  straight  chain  isomers.  In addition the  branched  isomer  has  a  low boiling point as  compared to  straight chain isomers. Since   boiling require  the of  the  intermolecular  forces tend to have  lower  boiling  point   than straight chain

For the reaction A(g)
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

By definition, the equilibrium constanct, Kc, for the reaction A ⇒ 2B is

= [A]^1 / [B]^2

Substitute [A] = 4 and [B] = 2 in the equation,

[A]^1 / [B]^2

= 4^1 / 2^2

= 1

= Kc

So yes the reaction is at equilibrium.
