Which property of water causes water drops to bead on a freshly waxed car?

Chemistry
1 answer:
astraxan [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces  

Step-by-step explanation:

The attractive forces between water molecules and the wax on a freshly-waxed car (adhesive forces) are quite weak.

However, there are strong attractive forces (cohesive forces) between water molecules.

The water molecules are only weakly attracted to the wax, so the cohesive forces pull the water molecules together to form beads .

Answer: subduction and sea floor spreading

Explanation:

He knew that the continents today were once joined together by fossil records of plants and animals that were found to be on continents far removed from each other. He knew this also by corresponding land forms that matches up as well. What he couldn’t prove is how the land masses would have moved so far away from each other. Subduction and sea floor spreading move the tectonic plates that the continents sit on. That’s what he was missing.

If ammonia is manufactured at 356 k, is the reaction spontaneous, given that the enthalpy and entropy change for the reaction ar
Alchen [17]
The reaction will be spontaneous if Gibb free energy is negative, according the following relation:  
G = H - T*S  
where G is Gibbs free energy, T is change of enthalpy , T is temperature and S is change of entropy  
In the case of ammonia:  
G = -93000 - 356*(-198) = -93000 + 70488 = -22512 j/mol  
As G < 0 then the reaction is spontaneous.
