<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The percentage of the family’s total annual electricity that is used to run the two air conditioners for the three summer months = 19.4 %</h2>
Explanation:
Average electricity consumed per month = 900 kWh
The family cools their house for three months during the summer with two window-unit air conditioners
The power consumed by one window-unit air conditioners = 350 kWh
The power consumed by two window-unit air conditioners = 350(2) = 700 kWh
Power consumed for two air conditioners for the three summer months = 700 (3) = 2100 kWh
Total power consumed for 1 year = 900 (12) = 10800kWh
The percentage of the family’s total annual electricity that is used to run the two air conditioners for the three summer months = = 19.4 %
Answer:
B) Symmetrical and nonpolar
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is H-C≡C-H.
Each C atom has <em>two</em> electron regions, so VSEPR theory predicts a <em>linear molecular geometry</em> (see image below).
The molecule is symmetrical, because the green line divides the molecule into two halves that are mirror images of each other.
The C-H bonds are slightly polar, because C is more electronegative than H (µ ≈ 0.4 D).
The C atoms are partially negative (red), while the H atoms are partially positive (blue).
However, the two C-H bond dipoles point in <em>opposite directions</em>, so they cancel each other. The molecule has <em>no net dipole moment.</em>
Acetylene is nonpolar.
