Answer:

The decreasing order of bond length in the carbon - carbon bonds will be:

C-C>C=C>C\equiv C

Explanation:

Bond length is defined as average distance between two nuclei of  bonded atoms in a molecule.Bond length is inversely  proportional to the number of bonds present between two atoms.

\text{Bond length} \propto \frac{1}{\text{Number of bonds}}...[1]

Bond energy is defied as amount of energy required to break apart the bond of 1 mole of molecule into their individual atom. Bond energy is directly proportional to the number of bonds present between two atoms.

\text{Bond Energy} \propto \text{Number of bonds}..[2]

From [1] and [2]:

\text{Bond length} \propto \frac{1}{\text{Bond energy}}

C-C: sp_3 hybridized

C=C: sp_2 hybridized

C\equiv C: sp hybridized

Extent of overlapping of orbitals in these hybridization;

C\equiv C> C=C > C-C

Higher the overlapping of orbital more closer will be both atoms to each other and shorter will be the bond lenght.

So, the decreasing order of bond length in the carbon - carbon bonds will be:

C-C>C=C>C\equiv C

What are two ways carbon returns from animal into the water
soldi70 [24.7K]
Split and merge into it. While they are alive, carbon returns from animals into water through waste products from respiration and defecation/urination. Another way when they are dead is from decaying remains. While they are alive, carbon returns from animals into water through waste products from respiration and defecation/urination.

What is an internal cost of driving a domestic car?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The correct option is: Cost of materials used in manufacture

Explanation:

There are two types of costs of an object: the internal costs and the external costs.

The internal cost of an object is the direct monetized cost. It refers to the cost involved in the <u>production or manufacturing of a given objec</u>t. Example: labor, <u>material required</u>, equipment, energy, and overhead expenses.

PLZ ANSWER
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

B. The student should model a convex lens because it directs light toward the center of the lens.

Explanation:

Lenses are optical devices that work on the principle of refraction.

Refraction is a phenomenon of wave (such as light waves) that occurs when a ray of light crosses the interface between two mediums with different optical density: when this occurs, the ray of light bends and change speed.

In particular, there are two types of lenses:

  • Convex lenses: these lenses are curved outward at their center, therefore the rays of light coming from infinite distance (parallel to the axis) are all focused into a point of the lens, called principal focus. Therefore, a convex lens directs lights towards this point.
  • Concave lenses: these lenses are curved inward at their center, therefore the rays of light coming from infinite distance are bent away from the principal focus. Therefore, this is a diverging lens, as the rays of light do not converge.

So, the correct answer is

B. The student should model a convex lens because it directs light toward the center of the lens.

The molecular formula of water is H, O. What does it express<br>​
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Firstly, the molecular formula of water would be H2O. Secondly, it expresses the amount of different atoms in the water molecule. In this case, H2 would be two Hydrogen atoms, and O would be 1 Oxygen atom.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!
