Answer:

The water molecules slow down, stronger attractions form between them, and the molecules are pulled closer together.

Explanation:

In solids the packing of the particles is closer and tighter thus increasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes solids rigid with a definite shape, size and volume. On the other hand in liquids the packing of the particles is loose thus decreasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes liquids able to flow, and takes the shape and volume of the container in which they are placed.

How many grams of sodium nitrate will dissolve in 50 g of water at 20 degrees Celsius?
Vesna [10]
The best method to solve how many grams of sodium nitrate that will be dissolve in water at 20 degrees Celsius is to use solubility table. Based on the solubility table, 88.3 g will dissolve in water in a 100g NaNO3. Therefore, get the percentage and multiply it to 50g. The answer is 44.15g

Which of the statements about peptide bonds are true? The formation of a peptide bond involves a dehydration reaction. A tripept
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Peptide bonds form from nucleophilic attack by an α‑carboxyl carbon atom on an electron pair of an α‑amino nitrogen atom of another amino acid.

Explanation:

Peptide bond is a form of covalent bond and it is Amide type that is formed between two molecules when carboxyl group react with one molecule of amino group to release molecule of water.The peptide bond are in form pseudo-double bond characteristic; rigid, planar, and stronger than a typical Carboxyl nitrogen single bond.

Peptide bonds form from nucleophilic attack by an α‑carboxyl carbon atom on an electron pair of an α‑amino nitrogen atom of another amino acid.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

It should be 4

The mass is 9

There are 5    neutrons

There are 9 - 5 = 4 protons

So it is the 4th element on the periodic table.

What is the formula for the stable binary ionic compound formed between Barium and Oxygen?
xeze [42]

Answer: a. BaO

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here element barium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Ba^{2+} cation and O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral BaO

For the chemical reaction Na 2 CO 3 + Ca ( NO 3 ) 2 ⟶ CaCO 3 + 2 NaNO 3 how many moles of calcium carbonate will be produced fro
sp2606 [1]
Na2CO3 mol = mass/rfm
= 91.9 / ( 23+23+12+16+16+16)
= 91.9/106
=919/1060 or roughly 0.867

Mole ratio of sodium carbonate to calcium carbonate is 1:1

Therefore calcium carbonate mol = mass/rfm

919/1060 = mass / (40+12+16+16+16)
919/1060 = mass / 100
Mass = 919/1060 x 100
= 4595/53 or 86.7g to 3 significant figures
