Answer:

Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon.

Explanation:

Electronegativity increases from left to right across the periodic table. Since oxygen is further right than carbon, it is more electronegative. Also, if you look at a chart of electronegativity, oxygen has an electronegativity of 3.44 while carbon has an electronegativity of 2.55.

So oxygen is more electronegative than carbon. Hope this helps.

A person applies a force of 200 N over 1.5 m to a jack. The jack exerts a 1000-N force on a car a distance of 0.02 m. What is th

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The efficiency rating of the jack is 0.067.

Explanation:

We have, a person applies a force of 200 N over 1.5 m to a jack. The jack exerts a 1000-N force on a car a distance of 0.02 m.

It is required to find the the efficiency rating of the jack. It is equal to the ratio of output work to the ratio of input work. So,

$\eta=\dfrac{1000\times 0.02}{200\times 1.5}\\\\\eta=0.067$

Thus, the efficiency rating of the jack is 0.067.

If 196L of air at 1.0 atm is compressed to 26000ml, what is the new pressure

Elena L [17]

Answer:

7.5 atm

Explanation:

Initial pressure P1 = 1.0 ATM

Initial volume V1= 196 L

Final pressure P2= the unknown

Final volume V2= 26000ml or 26 L

From Boyle's law we have;

P1V1= P2V2

P2= P1V1/V2

P2= 1.0 × 196/26

P2 = 7.5 atm

Therefore, as the air is compressed, the pressure increases to 7.5 atm.
