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 .

Hillsdale and Cordera are the same distance from the equator, and both are near the ocean. Is Cordera warmer, colder, or the sam
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Cordera is colder than Hillsdale.

Explanation:

They may be at a similar latitude. But you also have to consider the currents nearby the location.

The prevailing wind closer to the equator which carries warm current hits Hillsdale which is why it follows the coastline of the continent. However, for Cordera prevailing winds carrying cold currents hits the continent and follows or hits the coastline of Cordera.

The combustion of glucose (c6h12o6) with oxygen gas produces carbon dioxide and water. this process releases 2803 kj per mole of
V125BC [204]

Answer:- 335 kcal of heat energy is produced.

Solution:- The balanced equation for the combustion of glucose in presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water is:

C_6H_1_2O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O

From given info, 2803 kJ of heat is released bu the combustion of 1 mol of glucose. We need to calculate the energy produced when 3.00 moles of oxygen react with excess of glucose.

We could solve this using dimensional analysis as:

3.00mol O_2(\frac{1mol glucose}{6mol O_2})(\frac{2803 kJ}{1mol glucose})

= 1401.5 kJ

Now, let's convert kJ to kcal.

We know that, 1kcal = 4.184kJ

So, 1401.5kJ(\frac{1kcal}{4.184kJ})

= 335 kcal

Hence, 335 kcal of heat energy is produced by the use of 3.00 moles of oxygen gas.

<u>Out of all given option, the following statements are true about a system:</u>

  • A system is a group of objects analyzed as one unit.
  • Energy that moves across system boundaries is conserved

Answer: Option A and B

<u>Explanation:</u>

A system is "a complicated item whose parts or segments are identified with probably a portion of different segments", it very well may be material or calculated. All systems have piece, structure, and condition, yet just material systems have instruments (or forms), and just some material systems have shape.

As per systems, all articles are systems or segments of another system. For instance, a nuclear core is a physical material system made out of protons and neutrons related by solid atomic association; a cell is a natural material system made out of related organelles by non-covalent synthetic securities and metabolic pathways; and a logical hypothesis is a consistent reasonable system made out of theories, definitions, and hypotheses related by relationship and conclusion.
