Answer :

Example of polar covalent molecules H-O-H(water), ammonia

Explanation:

The presence of intermolecular Hydrogen bonding makes the boiling point of water unexpectedly high, and the polar covalent nature makes it dissolve polar solute/compound

Answer:

Explanation:

The constituent of a water molecule is one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atom. Oxygen is highly electronegative ( ability to pull electron closer to itself in a covalent bond) compare to hydrogen and as such it creates two poles with oxygen been partially negative and hydrogen been partially positive. This attributes allow water to dissolve polar substances such sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide. When this substance are added to water, they are pull apart with positive sodium ion attracted to the partially positive oxygen and the chloride ions attracted to the partially positive hydrogen.

The polarity of water ice is able to float in water because of the polar nature as the molecules is extended as far as possible and are held together by the hydrogen bond. Water expands when its freezes and it density decreases

The polar nature also of its molecules also contributes to its high boiling, freezing point and strong surface tension.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

(4) 230 kPa

Explanation:

The temperature is constant, so the only variables are pressure and volume.

We can use Boyle’s Law.

$p_{1}V_{1} = p_{2}V_{2}$

Divide both sides of the equation by $V_{2}$ .

$p_{2} = p_{1} \times \frac{V_{1}}{ V_{2}}$

$p_{1} = \text{145 kPa}; V_{1} = \text{125 cm}^{3}}$

$p_{2} = ?; V_{2} = \text{80. cm}^{3}$

$p_{2} = \text{145 kPa} \times \frac{\text{125 cm}^{3}}{\text{80. cm}^{3}} = \textbf{230 kPa}$

Dovator [93]

The nuclear reaction occurring is known as alpha-decay, and during this process, an alpha particle is released from a heavy radioactive nucleus to form a lighter more stable nucleus. The alpha particle is equivalent to a helium nucleus, which means it contains 2 protons and two neutrons (net charge of +2)
The decay equation is:
Rn → Po + α
