What is the most important structural feature of the water molecule

Chemistry
2 answers:
artcher [175]3 years ago

Answer:

Summary. Water molecules are polar, so they form hydrogen bonds. This gives water unique properties, such as a relatively high boiling point, high specific heat, cohesion, adhesion and density.

Explanation:

Answer:

Water's polarity allows it to dissolve other polar substances very easily. When a polar substance is put in water, the positive ends of its molecules are attracted to the negative ends of the water molecules, and vice versa. The dissolving power of water is very important for life on Earth.

_____ stars can be between one thousand times dimmer and one million times brighter than the Sun.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The answer is

D. Main sequence

Explanation:

Main sequence stars can be between one thousand times dimmer and one million times brighter than the Sun.

What is main sequence stars?

A main sequence star is any star that is fusing hydrogen in its core and has a stable balance of outward pressure from core nuclear fusion and gravitational forces pushing inward.

Which of the following has the greatest electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms? a. A strong acid made of hydrogen
NARA [144]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Electronegativity value of hydrogen is 2.2.

Electronegativity value of chlorine is 3.16.

Electronegativity value of carbon is 2.55.

Electronegativity value of oxygen is 3.44.

Electronegativity value of nitrogen is 3.04.

Electronegativity value of sodium is 0.93.

Electronegativity value of iodine is 2.66.

Therefore, calculate the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms as follows.

  • Electronegativity difference of HCl = Electronegativity value of chlorine - electronegativity value of hydrogen

                                                          = 3.16 - 2.2

                                                          = 0.96

  • Electronegativity difference of CO = Electronegativity value of oxygen - electronegativity value of carbon

                                                          =  3.44 - 2.55

                                                          = 0.89

  • Electronegativity difference of N_{2} = Electronegativity value of nitrogen - electronegativity value of nitrogen

                                                           = 3.04 - 3.04

                                                           = 0

  • Electronegativity difference of NaI = Electronegativity value of iodine - electronegativity value of sodium

                                                          = 2.66 - 0.93

                                                          = 1.73

So, we can see that highest electronegativity difference is 1.73 and it is shown by NaI molecule.

Thus, we can conclude that a group 1 alkali metal bonded to iodide, such as NaI has the greatest electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms.

How does a scientist explain something when a controlled experiment cannot be carried out
Romashka [77]
<span> We look for evidence. There are numerous natural phenomenon that we can't observe happening in real-time because they happen over large time scales, or large spatial scales. But we can observe the effects of these phenomenon and make predictions about what other effects we should see. </span>

If the half-life of Carbon-14 is 5700 years, how many years would it take a sample to decay from 1 gram to 31.3 mg
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

28500 years

Explanation:

Applying,

A = A'(2^{x/y})............... Equation 1

Where A = Original mass of Carbon-14, A' = Final mass of carbon-14 after decaying, x = total time, y = half-life.

From the question,

Given: A = 1 g, A' = 31.3 mg = 0.0313 g, y = 5700 years.

Substitute these values into equation 1

1 = 0.0313(2^{x/5700})

2^{x/5700} = 1/0.0313

2^{x/5700}  = 31.95

2^{x/5700} ≈ 32

2^{x/5700} ≈ 2⁵

Equating the base and solve for x

x/5700 ≈ 5

x ≈ 5×5700

x ≈ 28500 years
