Answer: B) hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

A) An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element.

B) Hydrogen bonds are special type of dipole dipole forces which are formed when hydrogen bonds with an electronegative element.

DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases on one strand and those on the other. Adenine and thymine have two hydrogen bonds between them while cytosine and guanine have three hydrogen bonds between them.

C) Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

D) A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

What electrically neutral atom has 30 neutrons and 25 electrons?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Manganese (Mn)

Explanation:

We know it's manganese because we are told it is an electrically neutral atom. This means it has the same number of protons and electrons. If it has 25 electrons, it has 25 protons. Protons tell us the atomic number of the atom, which also tells us the name of the element. Manganese is element 25 on the periodic table.

At the Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in of
Dvinal [7]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

At 25°C Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is 0.031 M/atm . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in 425. mL of water at 25°C and at a partial pressure of 2.92 atm. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}

where,

K_H = Henry's constant = 0.031M/atm

C_{CO_2} = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 2.92 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

C_{CO_2}=0.031M/atm\times 2.92 atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=0.0905M

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Given mass of carbon dioxide = ? g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.0905mol/L

Volume of solution = 425 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0905mol/L=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}\times 1000}{44g/mol\times 425}\\\\\text{Mass of solute}=\frac{44\times 425\times 0.0905}{1000}=1.7g

Hence, the mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

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:

  • <em><u>Passive solar energy</u></em>

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.

If you have 0.50 mol of ca, how many atoms are present?
Evgen [1.6K]
Answer is: there are 3.011·10²³ atoms of calcium.

n(Ca) = 0.50 mol; amount of substance(calcium).
Na = 6.022·10²³ 1/mol;  Avogadro's constant or number.
N(Ca) = n(Ca) · Na.
N(Ca) = 0.50 mol · 6.022·10²³ 1/mol.
N(Ca) = 3.011·10²³; number of calcium atoms.
The mole is an SI unit which measures the number of particles in substance. One mole is equal to <span><span>6.022</span></span>·<span><span><span>10</span></span></span>²³<span> atoms.</span>

Does the color of bell peppers effect the number of seeds inside? Please someone help ASAP I need it today
Mekhanik [1.2K]

I don't think so. "It's not a matter of pigment discrimination: Red and yellow bell peppers are essentially just green peppers that have been allowed to ripen"
