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 .

In the reaction 3H2 + N2 → ____ NH3, what coefficient should be placed in front of NH3 to balance the reaction?
zubka84 [21]
2. 3H2 + N2 means you have 6 Hs and 2 Ns. NH3 has one N and 3 Hs, so you need 2 NH3s in order to have the 2 and 6 of each that you need on both sides of the reaction.

Consider the following system at equilibrium where H° = 111 kJ/mol, and Kc = 6.30, at 723 K.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same.

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by means of the Le Chatelier's principle which is based on the shift a chemical reaction could have under some modifications, we have:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same, since it just depend the reaction's thermodynamics as it is computed via:

ln(K)=\frac{\Delta _RG}{RT}

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc, since the reaction quotient is:

Qc=\frac{[N_2][H_2]^3}{[NH_3]^2}

Thus, the lower the concentration of ammonia, the higher Qc, making Qc>Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium, since ammonia was withdrawn and should be regenerated to reach the equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease, since less reactant is forming the products.

Best regards.
