Answer:

Coal is formed under the ground when pressure is high and there is a lot of heat also to make coal you need dead and composed organisms put together all of this makes a lump of dark coal.

Why the bond in water molecule os polar covalent bond, while than in chlorine molecule is pure covalent bond? Give reason? ​
erastovalidia [21]

Explanation:

The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles - a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.

Which of the following additions to alkenes occur(s) specifically in an syn fashion?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

E) A, B, and C

Explanation:

Syn addition refers to the addition of two substituents on the same face or side of a double bond. This differed from anti addition which a occurs across opposite face of the double bond.

Hydrogenation, hydroboration and dihydroxylation all involve syn addition to the double bond, hence the answer chosen above.

A bottle containing 415 g of cleaning solution is used to clean hospital equipment. If the cleaning solution has a specific grav
neonofarm [45]

Answer: 483 mL of the cleaning solution are used to clean hospital equipment

Explanation:

The question requires us to calculate the volume, in mL, of solution is used to clean hospital equipment, given that 415g of this solution are used and the specific gravity of the solution is 0.860.

Measurements > Density

Specific gravity is defined as the ratio between the density of a given substance to the density of a reference material, such as water:

Specific\text{ gravity = }\frac{density\text{ of substance}}{density\text{ of reference substance}}

The density of a substance is defined as the ratio between the mass and the volume of this substance:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Considering the reference substance as water and its density as 1.00 g/mL, we can determine the density of the substance which specific gravity is 0.860:

0.860=\frac{density\text{ of substance}}{1.00g/mL}\rightarrow density\text{ of substance = 0.860g/mL}

Thus, taking water as the reference substance, we can say that the density of the cleaning solution is 0.860 g/mL.

Now that we know the density of the cleaning solution (0.860 g/mL) and the mass of solution that is used to clean hospital equipment (415g), we can calculate the volume of solution that is used to clean the equipment:

\begin{gathered} density=\frac{mass}{volume}\rightarrow volume=\frac{mass}{density} \\  \\ volume=\frac{415g}{0.860g/mL}=483mL \end{gathered}

Therefore, 483 mL of the cleaning solution are used to clean hospital equipment.

Alla [95]

Hello.

The answer is:  A. keep a cork in the test tube so the solution cannot spill out

B and C both could be very deadly and it shouldnt be D because if u have an open flame you shouldnt open it even if its not towards anyone.

have a nice day

The half-reaction occurring at the cathode in the balanced reaction shown below is __________?2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Correct choice are C and D (they are both, the same).

Explanation:

Cathode is the positive(+) electrode where a reduction occurs.

Reduction is the chemical reaction where the oxidation state is reduced.

2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag+(aq) + H2O (l)

A. 2H2O (l) → O2 (g) + 4H+ (aq) + 4e-

B. 2Ag (s) → 2Ag+ (aq) + 2e-

C. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

D. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

C or D, are ok. They are the same equation.

Oxygen from ground state reduce the oxidation state from 0 to -2
