The heat/enthalpy of vaporization of water represents the energy input required to convert one mole of water into vapor at a constant temperature. Intermolecular forces including hydrogen bondings of significant strength hold water molecules in place under its liquid state. Whereas the molecules experience almost no intermolecular interactions under the gaseous state- consider the way noble gases molecules interact. It is thus necessary to supply sufficient energy to overcome all intermolecular interactions present in the substance under its liquid state to convert the substance into a gas. The heat of vaporization is thus related to the strength of the intermolecular interactions.
Water molecules contain hydrogen atoms bonded directly to oxygen atoms. Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative and take major control of electrons in hydrogen-oxygen bonds. Hydrogen atoms in water molecules thus experience a strong partial-positive charge and would attract lone pairs of electron on neighboring water molecules. "Hydrogen bonds" refer to the attraction between hydrogen atoms bonded to electronegative elements and lone pairs of electrons. The hydrogen-oxygen bonds in water molecules are so polarized that hydrogen bonds in water are stronger than both dipole-dipole interactions and London Dispersion Forces in most other molecules. It thus take high amounts of energy to separate water molecules sufficiently apart such that they no longer experience intermolecular interactions and behave collectively like a gas. As a result, water has one of the highest heat of vaporization among covalent molecules of similar sizes.
Answer:
C) mass.
Explanation:
The speed of a body is given by the relation between the displacement of a body in a given time. It can be considered the greatness that measures how fast a body moves.
Speed analysis is divided into two main topics: average speed and instantaneous speed. It is considered a vector quantity, that is, it has a module (numerical value), a direction (Ex .: vertical, horizontal) and a direction (Ex .: forward, upwards). However, for elementary problems, where there is displacement in only one direction, the so-called one-dimensional movement, it is advisable to treat it as a scalar quantity (with only numerical value).
The mass of an object is not an important factor in determining the speed of that object. However, time, direction and distance are important factors in determining speed.
Answer:
There are 79 protons in the nucleus of one Gold atom.
Explanation:
The number of protons of any given atom/element can be determined by the atomic number of the specific element, which is found on the periodic table.
Given mass of tungsten, W = 415 g
Molar mass of tungsten, W = 183.85 g/mol
Calculating moles of tungsten from mass and molar mass:
