The average strength of a hydrogen bond is approximately what percent of the average strength of a covalent bond?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>Hydrogen bonds are approximately 5% of the bond strength of covalent bonds, for example (C-C or C-H bonds).
Hydrogen bonds strength in water is approximately 20 kJ/mol, strenght of carbon-carbon bond is approximately 350 kJ/mol and strengh of carbon-hydrogen bond is approximately 340 kJ/mol.
20 kJ/350 kJ = 0,057 = 5,7 %.</span>

3 reasons why aluminium is used in making of cooking vessels

Annette [7]

Answer is : It is a good thermal and electrical conductor. -The main point to be noted is that aluminium is a highly reactive element and still it is used for making cooking utensils. The reason is that aluminium has a very high affinity for oxygen. So, it reacts with oxygen and forms a layer of aluminium oxide on its surface.

A 237g sample of molybdnum metal is heated to 100.1 0C and then dropped into an insulated cup containing 244 g of water at 10.0

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The specific heat of molybdenum is 0.254 joules per gram-Celsius.

Explanation:

We consider the system formed by the molybdenum metal and water as our system, a control mass inside an insulated cup, that is, a container that avoids any energy and mass interactions between system and surroundings.

From statement we notice that metal is cooled down whereas water is heated. According to the First Law of Thermodynamics, we know that:

$Q_{metal} - Q_{water} = 0$

$Q_{metal} = Q_{water}$

Where:

$Q_{water}$ - Heat received by water, measured in joules.

$Q_{metal}$ - Heat released by metal, measured in joules.

Now we expand this identity by definition of sensible heat:

$m_{metal}\cdot c_{metal}\cdot (T_{m,o}-T) = m_{water}\cdot c_{water}\cdot (T-T_{w,o})$

The specific heat of the metal is cleared within equation above:

$c_{metal} = \frac{m_{water}\cdot c_{water}\cdot (T-T_{w,o})}{m_{metal}\cdot (T_{m,o}-T)}$

If we know that $m_{water} = 0.237\,kg$ , $m_{metal} = 0.244\,kg$ , $c_{water} = 4186\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $T_{w,o} = 10\,^{\circ}C$ , $T_{m,o} = 100.10\,^{\circ}C$ and $T = 15.30\,^{\circ}C$ , the specific heat of molybdenum is:

$c_{metal} = \frac{(0.237\,kg)\cdot \left(4186\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (15.30\,^{\circ}C-10\,^{\circ}C)}{(0.244\,kg)\cdot (100.10\,^{\circ}C-15.30\,^{\circ}C)}$

$c_{metal} = 254.119\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$

The specific heat of molybdenum is 0.254 joules per gram-Celsius.

I hope that you can understand this!!! Lol

The thing that you have to pull back to release with, that would be considered a third class lever.

I hope this helps. :)
