If a barometer were built using ethanol () instead of mercury (), would the column of ethanol be higher than, lower than, or the

same as the column of mercury at 1.00 atm?
Chemistry

Answer:

The column of ethanol will be higher than the column of mercury.

Explanation:

The pressure (P) of a column of liquid can be calculated using the following expression.

P = ρ . g . h

where,

ρ: density of the liquid

g: gravity

h: height of the column

h = P / ρ . g

We can see that the height of the column is inversely proportional to the density of the liquid. The density of ethanol (0.789 g/mL) is lower than the density of mercury (13.6 g/mL). Then, under the same conditions, the column of ethanol will be higher than the column of mercury.

What makes a charged object attract an uncharged object?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

its c I think C)

 

The reason for this is due to the phenomenon called "Charging by Induction". What that means is that when something with a charge, for example a negative charge, is brought near an uncharged one, it induces the opposite charge onto it (positive in this case) and therefore since opposites attract, it attracts it.

The reason for this is that since, just like a positive magnet rejects and pushed away like charges, the electrons hold a negative charge, they push away any electrons that may be in the neutrally charged item causing only protons to be left, thus creating an oppositely charged object. Or vice versa.

So whatever charge the object has, it induces the opposite charge into the uncharged object, causing the charges to move only in the uncharged one.

How would you distinguish benzoic acid and benzyl alcohol by their infrared spectra?
Vadim26 [7]

The OH peaks in the IR spectra of benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid should be compared and contrasted.

<h3>What is the IR spectra of Benzoic acid?</h3>
  • The right-hand portion of the infrared spectrum of benzoic acid, between wavenumbers 1500 and 400 cm-1, is referred to as the fingerprint region.
  • It results from a special combination of intricately overlapping vibrations of the atoms within the benzoic acid molecule.
<h3>What is the IR spectra of Benzyl alcohol?</h3>
  • A C-Cl bond is frequently shown by a peak at 700.
  • There are a few more peaks at 1500 that are directed at a C=C bond.
<h3>What is IR spectra?</h3>

The percent transmittance (or absorbance) of the radiation through the molecule against the radiation's wave number forms the IR spectrum.

Which of the following properly describes the movement of atoms as they represent the states of matter? Atoms making liquids hav
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Atoms making liquids have less attraction than solids, but more than gases

Explanation:

The attraction between atoms in different molecules in a solid is very strong due to strong intermolecular forces present in a solid. However, such intermolecular forces are weaker in liquids than in solids.

This implies that the solid has higher intermolecular forces of attraction compared to gases and liquids. Based on the negligible degree of intermolecular forces between them, a gas has the weakest intermolecular forces hence the atom has very minimal interaction between them.
