Pretend that you are the size of an atom, observing a reaction between a potassium atom and a fluorine atom. Write an account of

the formation of an ionic bond as the atoms react. Tell what happens to the valence electrons on each atom and how each atom is changed by losing or gaining electrons.

Potassium will loss it's electron because it have a character of electropositively therefore it's electron will transfer to flouren which will make stable and complete of it's electro configuration. Now potassium will have negative charge due to loss it's outer most electron on it's orbit and flourine will take negatively charge too because of complete it's outer most shell to be completed.(But we have to know that at first flourine was had a positive charge because of not completed of it's outer most shell)

Is it possible to transfer heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.

For example,  air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.

Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.

Which molecule is nonpolar and has a symmetrical shape hcl?
Alchen [17]
HCl is considered as polar molecule and that is incorrect answer, The choices provided are A) HCl , B) CH₄ , C) H₂O, D) NH₃

And the correct answer is : B) CH₄

In case of H₂O and NH₃ the high difference in electronegativity between nitrogen or oxygen and hydrogen make the bonds acquire partial charges and become polar while in case of CH₄ the difference in electronegativity between carbon and hydrogen is only 0.4 so it considered as non-polar bond
also carbon connected from all directions with Hydrogens
