Non-polar covalent
Explanation:
Propane is made up of non-polar covalent bonds and it can be expected to dissolve in hexane and to not dissolve in water.
Propane is an hydrocarbon gas.
It forms by sharing of electrons between two atoms with very low electronegativity differences.
This differences results in equal sharing of the shared electron. Therefore they form a non-polar covalent bond.
Water is a polar covalent compound and cannot dissolve compounds that are not polar like propane.
Propane will only dissolve in a like substance like hexane which is equally non-polar.

Answer:
Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.
Explanation:
As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.

Answer:
The correct answer is 4
Explanation:
Boron trifluoride (BF₃) has a molecular geometry (as shown in the image in the question) referred to as trigonal planar; this is because each of the the fluorine atoms/molecules (bonded to the central boron atom) is placed in such a way that they form the three "end points"/"domains" of an equilateral triangle. Hence, the correct option is the last option.
Rutherford theorized that atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.
This was famous Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment: he bombarded thin foil of gold with positive alpha particles (helium atom particles, consist of two protons and two neutrons).
Rutherford observed the deflection of alpha particles on the photographic film and notice that most of alpha particles passed straight through foil.
That is different from Plum Pudding model, because it shows that most of the atom is empty space.
According to Rutherford model of the atom:
1) Atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.
2) Major space in an atom is empty.
3) Atoms nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons.
4) An atom is electrically neutral.
Answer:
C - show 7 neutrons in the nucleus
Explanation:
Use process of elimination:
-Answer A will not work because electrons are not in the nucleus.
-Answer B will change the atom's identity from nitrogen to fluorine; it will not work.
-Answer D will create a nitrogen ion, which is not what the prompt is asking for (an atom); it will not work.
The only logical answer is C, as that is the only one that is also true.
