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.

Answer:

7. 4H₂O

Elements: Hydrogen, Oxygen

Number of molecules: 4

Number of elements: 8 H, 4 O

Number of Atoms: 12

Explanation:

The elements are determined by the their symbol i.e. H = hydrogen.

The number of molecules is determined by the coefficient ( the number in front of everything, in this case 4).

The number of elements is determined by the coefficient and the subscripts. Multiply the coefficient by the subscript after each element. When there is no subscript, it is equal to 1.  4H₂ = 4x2 = 8;  4O = 4x1 = 4.

The number of atoms is all the individual elements added together. 8+4 = 12.

Give an example of a time when you would want to increase friction.
Snezhnost [94]

1) you want to increase friction when it gets cold. If you're outside and it's really cold, you're going to rub your hands to warm them up, therefore friction is increasing

I'm not do sure about decreasing.
