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 .

is there a relationship between the relative age of stars in the number/identity of element is found within them
lukranit [14]

Yes. Stars use fusion to create nuclear energy, which is what makes them "alive". The older they are, the "bigger" the element in them is. Hydrogen turns into Helium, and when hydrogen is used up, the helium starts fusing into bigger elements. it stops at iron however. Once stars start fusing silicon to iron, it is doomed because it takes more energy than it gives off.

Which equation best represents the dissociation of water molecules into hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions?
Nikitich [7]

Answer is: H₂O → H⁺ + OH⁻.

Water dissociates (autoionization) to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) ions. The protons (H⁺) hydrate as hydroxonium ions( H₃O⁺).

The Kw (the ionic product for water) at 25°C is 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ or 1·10⁻¹⁴ M². Concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in pure water are the same.
