All of the statements describe hydrogen bonds EXCEPT: a. Hydrogen bonds account for the anomalously high boiling point of water.

b. In liquid water, the average water molecule forms hydrogen bonds with two to three other water molecules. c. Individual hydrogen bonds are much weaker than covalent bonds. d. Individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water exist for many seconds and sometimes for minutes. e. The strength of a hydrogen bond depends on the linearity of the atoms involved in the bond.

Answer:

The correct option is e

Explanation:

Hydrogen bond is an intermolecular interaction/bonding that are formed between an electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine) and a hydrogen atom. They are weak intermolecular bonds compared to covalent bonds but account for the high boiling point of water because of the strong hydrogen bond presence between the water molecules. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds between each other; since an oxygen atom (in a water molecule) has two lone pairs on it's outermost shell, it forms an hydrogen bond with two hydrogen atoms of other water molecule. Due to the fluidity of liquid water molecules, hydrogen bonds keep getting broken (although recreated/formed almost immediately), hence, individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water does not exist for long.

In the explanation above, it was stated that the strength of the hydrogen bond in water is the reason for it's high boiling point. The atoms in a water molecule are bent NOT linear hence the strength of hydrogen bond does not depend on the linearity of the atoms involved in the bond.

Which of the following is NOT a way that reducing biodiversity directly impacts humans?
Zepler [3.9K]

C. Fewer habitats for wild animals to live in

Explanation:

Biodiversity does not directly impact humans in that there are fewer habitats for wild animals to live in. This is a direct impact on animals and not humans.

Biodiversity is the variation of life forms in an area. It is measured by the ability of the ecosystem to sustain different life forms and keep their interaction with the environment.

It helps to maintain and sustain life.

To humans, reducing biodiversity;

  • reduces the potential of medicine derived from other organisms. When their habitat is lost, we lose them.
  • fewer ecosystems to appreciate for beauty and recreation. It leads to loss of the ecosystem.
  • fewer wild food species for humans to eat.

Loss of habitat directly affects wild animals and not man.

How can we find the volume of this fish tank? Please I needed but Good
r-ruslan [8.4K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Find the number of 1-foot cubes that fill the fish tank

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Volume of a cuboid such as the fish tank is given by the product of length width and height;

Such that; Volume = length × width × height

Similarly, we can count the number of 1 foot cube that can fill the fish tank.

And since each cube has a volume of 1 cubic ft, then the number of cubes will be equivalent to the volume of the fish tank in cubic ft.
