The answer is A) Water has surface tension.
This is the correct answer because water allows animals and really light items to rest upon the top of the water.
Hope This Helps! If you could mark me as the brainiest answer, that would be amazing. I want others to read this answer and know it is accurate. If you need help with another question, just ask. :)

Answer: a) Water has surface tension

Explanation: Surface tension is the property of a liquid to acquire spherical shape due to a net downward force acting on the molecules present on the surface of the liquid.

Presence of strong hydrogen bonds between the molecules of water increases the forces of attraction and thus water membrane acts like a stretched membrane due to which they acquire a spherical shape.

b) Hydrogen and Oxygen form covalent bonds as they are joined by sharing of electrons.

c) Water is a versatile solvent due to its high dielectric constant.

d) The specific heat of water is quite high due to presence of hydrogen bonds.

Which of the following is true for compounds?

soldi70 [24.7K]

Compound are formed by two or more elements chemically combined. For example: H^2O is the water formula, this is a compound because you two elements which are Hydrogen and Oxygen and together they form a compound. The (^2) is the amount of atoms the formula has, in this case Hydrogen has two atoms and Oxygen is neutral.

I have science and i have a question that says : an element is a (valuable, pure , rare) substance that is not chemically combin

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

It’s true ( pure).

Explanation:

An element is defined as a pure substance that is not chemically combined with any other elements. An element comprises of mainly the sane type of atoms.

While a compound is a substance that consists of two or more elements which are chemically combined together. This is the main difference between an element and a compound.

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?

frez [133]

The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.

Liquid A and liquid B form a solution that behaves ideally according to Raoult's law. The vapor pressures of the pure substances

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Vapor pressure of solution → 151.1 Torr

Option 2.

Explanation:

Raoult's Law is relationed to colligative property about vapor pressure. A determined solute, can make, the vapor pressure of solution decreases.

ΔP = P° . Xm

where Xm is the mole fraction of solute, P° (vapor pressure of pure solvent)

and ΔP = Vapor pressure of pure solvent - Vapor pressure of solution.

In order to determine the vapor pressure of solution, we need to determine, the vapor pressure of B and A in the solution

B's pressure = P° B . Xm

When we add A to B, A works as the solute and B, as the solvent.

Vapor pressure of pure B is 135 torr. (P° B)

In order to determine, the Xm, we use the moles of A and B

Xm = 5.3 mol of B / (1.28 + 5.3) → 0.806

B's pressure = 135 Torr . 0.806 → 108.81 Torr

If mole fraction of B is 0.806, mole fraction for A (solute) will be (1 - 0.806)

A's pressure = 218 Torr . 0.194 → 42.3 Torr

Vapor pressure of solution is sum of vapor pressures of solute + solvent.

Vapor pressure of solution = 42.3 Torr + 108.81 Torr → 151.1 Torr
