Tides are the rise and fall of the oceans. They are caused by the gravity, or pull, of the Moon and Sun. The Moon's gravity is the main force in causing tides. It makes the oceans bulge out toward it. Another bulge occurs on the opposite side, because Earth is being pulled toward the Moon and away from the water. The water on the side farthest away from the Moon is least affected by its gravity.

What is the general form for the simplest type of acid-base reaction?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Your answer is C

Explanation:

When an acid and base react, the acidic hydrogen ion and the basic hydroxide ion in each acid and base neutralize each other and form water. Meanwhile the conjugate base and conjugate acid (the leftover compounds) react to form an ionic molecule, or a salt. (In chemistry, when an anion and a cation form an ionic bond the new molecule is called a salt). Hope this helps!

The following substances dissolve when added to water. Classify the substances according to the strongest solute-solvent interac
Montano1993 [528]

Answer: HF-dipole- dipole interaction

CH3OH- dipole-dipole interaction

CaCl2- ion-ion interaction

Explanation:

Both CH3OH and HF possess permanent dipoles which interact with water leading to the dissolution of the above named substances. Remember that water also possesses a permanent dipole. Which can interact with the dipoles on other polar molecules. CaCl2 is purely ionic and interacts with water via ion-dipole mechanism.
