Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

At the introductory level of chemistry, I can think of only two situations when you use Greek prefixes.

They indicate the number of atoms or groups in a molecule when you are naming a compound.

1. Binary covalent compounds

For example, P₂S₅ is diphosphorus pentasulfide.

2. Hydrates

For example, Na₂SO₄·10H₂O is sodium sulfate decahydrate.

Consider the substances hydrogen (H2), fluorine (F2), and hydrogen fluoride (HF). Based on their molecular structures, how does
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The boiling point of HF is <u><em>higher than</em></u> the boiling point of H2, and it is <u><em>higher than</em></u> the boiling point of F2.

Explanation:

In HF, inter- molecule forces will be present between the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. There will be hydrogen bonding present among the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. Hydrogen bonds are strong bonds and hence the boiling point for HF would be high as much energy will be required to break these bonds.

H2 and F2 will only have intra-molecular attractions and there will be no hydrogen bonds present in them. As a result, their boiling point will be lower.

What are heterogeneous and homogeneous?
vichka [17]
A homogeneous mixture has the same uniform appearance and composition throughout.
A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances or phases. The three phases or states of matter are gas, liquid, and solid.
A homogeneous mixture has the same uniform appearance and composition throughout. Many homogeneous mixtures are commonly referred to as solutions. A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances or phases.

From the graph of Density vs. Concentration, created in Graph 1, what was the relationship between the concentration of the suga
USPshnik [31]

The graph is not given in the question, so, the required graph is attached below:

Answer:

According to the graph, the relationship between the density of the sugar solution and the concentration of the sugar solution is directly proportional to each other as they both are increasing exponentially.

The graph shows that, the density of sugar solution will increase with the increase in concentration of sugar in the solution.

Purchasing the correctly sized BMX bike is based on the height of the rider. In order to fit a customer, the salesman can use th
Phantasy [73]
Answer: Your best answer is A.

Explanation: 1.35 is a constant and thus is does not change. The equation can be simplified to-
“b = (0.29 x h)+ 1.35”
So, if your rider is say 60 inches tall, the equation would change to-
“b = (0.29 x 60)+ 1.35”
Then to-
“b = (17.4) + 1.35” or “b = 17.4 + 1.35”
And therefore the size of the BMX bike frame in inches would be-
“b = 18.75”

Hope this helped :)
