Fran hangs three balloons from strings. She gives the first balloon a positive charge. She gives the second balloon a negative c

harge. She does not give the third balloon a charge.

Explanation: We are given three balloon carrying different charges: One having positive charge, one having negative charge and one having no charge.

When we bring positive rod near these three balloons, all of them behave differently.

According to the Coulomb's Law:

Like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other.

  • When we bring positive rod towards the balloon having positive charge, the balloon will move away from the rod, because like charges repel each other.
  • When we bring positive rod near negative balloon, the balloon will be attracted to the rod because unlike charges attract each other.
  • But, when we bring positive rod towards the balloon having no charge, the charges will be induced in the balloon. Although the balloon is neutral in nature but it will still carry some +ve or -ve charges. So, when the positive rod is bought near neutral ball, the negative side of the balloon will get attracted towards the rod and positive side will be repelled. From this, we say that the rod has induced some charges in the balloon.

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

is a combustion reaction

Explanation:

In a combustion reaction a chemical substance (usually organic substances) are reacted with oxygen to form the most stable oxides and heat.

CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O

In a double displacement reaction two compounds exchange elements.

AB + CD → AC + BD

In a decomposition reaction a compound is split into simpler substances.

AB →  A + B

In a synthesis reaction two elements are combined to form another compound. A + B → AB

In a single displacement reaction a compound exchange one of its elements.

AB + C → AC + B

Why do some transition metals have multiple oxidation states? Select the correct answer from each drop down menu
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Transition metals can have multiple oxidation states because of their electrons. The transition metals have several electrons with similar energies, so one or all of them can be removed, depending the circumstances. This results in different oxidation states. please mark me as brainellist

Predidt the direction and the relative value of the dipole moment of the following bond: C-Cl
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

D. C → Cl electronegativity difference > 0.5

Explanation:

The electro negativity of an atom in a compound refers to its ability to attract the electrons of a bond towards itself.

On the Pauling's scale, carbon has an electro negativity value of 2.55 while that of chlorine is 3.16. The difference in electro negativity between the both atoms is about 0.61.

The dipole is aslways directed towards the more electronegative atom. Hence the direction is ; C → Cl
