Describe the chemical make up and type of bonding found in water molecules?

1 answer:

4 0

Water molecules consist of 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen atom. They are bonded by a polar covalent bond, meaning the electrons shared by the covalanet bonds are not evenly distributed. Oxygen is more electronegative than Hydrogen and will pull the electrons from its bonds with Hydrogen closer to itself. Thus results in a partial positive dipole on the Hydrogen of the water molecule and a partial negative dipole on the Oxygen of the water molecule. These partial charges allow water to hydrogen bond with one another through a process called cohesion.

Mike works in the metals industry. Which type of coal should he use as a fuel source?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

B. bituminous

Explanation:

Bituminous coal is an organic sedimentary rock produced by compression of peat bog material by diagenesis and submetamorphics.

Bituminous coal has low moisture and high carbon content and hence used for the production of steel and cement, coke production an electricity generation.

Coking coal is a type of Bituminous coal are best used as fuel dource in metal industry having very narrow range of volatility and plasticity. Volatility is maintained by smelters to optimize the ease of burn rate, ignition, and energy output of the coal as this determines the burn rate of the coal.

Hence, the correct option is B. bituminous.
