A 39 foot ladder is resting against a wall that is 36 feet high. What is

1 answer:

6 0

So if you take a 39 ft ladder and place its base 15 feet from the base of the wall, when you lean the ladder against the wall, the point where the ladder rests against the wall will be 36 feet above the ground.

Answer: 15 feet
.
Hope this helps you understand this problem a little better.

garri49 [273]

Answer: Natural selection.

Explanation:

The natural selection is the process by which the organism that best suits the characters will survive and the organism which cannot adapt the changes will die.

The predators feed on their prey and the organism which hides easily in the environment due to its color is safe and the animals that cannot camouflage will die.

This is natural selection that more favored character is carried out over generations and other that cannot survive die.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

1. A bond where electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in charge imbalance in each atom is called ionic bonding.

2. A bond where electrons are equally shared, resulting in equal numbers of electrons orbiting each atom is called non-polar covalent bond.

3. A bond where electrons are unequally shared, resulting in more electrons orbiting certain atoms than others is called a polar covalent bond.

4. A bond where the electronegativity differences between the atoms within a molecule result in the partially positive atoms of one molecule attracting the partially negative atoms of other molecules is called polar bond and it is part of the covalent bonds.

Explanation:

1. In ionic bonding process, electrons are enterely transferred from one atom to another either losing or gaining negatively charged electrons, and the reacting atoms form ions. A charge imbalance is caused then by the oppositely charged ions, when attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, the basis of the ionic bond.

2. A non-polar covalent bond is occurs when two atoms have same electron afinity to share their electrons equally. The closer the values of their electron affinity, the stronger the attractionis. This is created in diatomic elements or gas molecules.

3. A polar covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where two electrons are unequally shared between two atoms, electrons are not equally shared because one atom spends more time with the electrons than the other atom, resulting in more electrons orbiting certain atoms than others.

4. The polar bond is a type of covalent bonds. This bonds depends on atoms´electronegativity differences. If an atom is less electronegative, it means that the electron distribution or charge is unevenly distributed or polarized and then it becomes partially positive.

Pls help

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

CrO₂ --------------------> Cr⁴⁺ and O²⁻

VCO₃ -------------------> V²⁺ and CO₃²⁻

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ -------------> Cr³⁺ and SO₄²⁻

(NH₄)₂S ----------------> NH₄⁺ and S²⁻

Explanation:

Within ionic compounds, the cation is listed first, followed by the anion. Some of the ions are polyatomic, meaning they are covalently bonded to other elements. Polyatomic ions always have a specific charge.

All of these ionic compounds have an overall charge of 0. As such, the charges of the cations and anions must balance out. In order to do so, there are some compounds which have more than one atom of each ion.

2.) CrO₂

------> Oxygen (O) always forms the anion, O²⁻.

------> Therefore, if there are 2 oxygen anions, the chromium (Cr) must have the cationic form of Cr⁴⁺.

------> +4 + (-2) + (-2) = 0

3.) VCO₃

------> Carbonate (CO₃), a polyatomic ion, always has the state CO₃²⁻.

------> If there is only one atom of each ion, the charges must perfectly balance, making vanadium (V) be the cation V²⁺.

------> +2 + (-2) = 0

4.) Cr₂(SO₄)₃

------> Sulfate (SO₄), a polyatomic ion, always has the state SO₄²⁻.

-------> The only way the charges could balance out is if the chromium (Cr) is in the cationic form Cr³⁺.

------> +3 + 3 + (-2) + (-2) + (-2) = 0

5.) (NH₄)₂S

------> Ammonium (NH₄), a polyatomic ion, always has the state NH₄⁺.

------> Sulfur (S) always forms the anion S²⁻.

------> +1 + 1 + (-2) = 0

If the mercury in a manometer raises 30.0 millimeters due to a change in pressure, what is the corresponding change in pressure

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

0.03947 atm

Explanation:

The relationship between mmHg and atm is given as;

1 atm = 760 mmHg

x atm = 30 mmHg

Upon solving for x;

x * 760 = 30 * 1

x = 30 / 760 = 0.03947 atm
