Answer:

NH₃

Explanation:

The compound that is covalent from the given choices is NH₃.

Covalent compounds are usually formed between two atoms with similar values of electronegativities such that the difference is very small or zero.

  • This bond type involves the sharing of electrons between two atoms with similar electronegativities.
  • Nitrogen and hydrogen forms stable configuration that are isoelectronic with noble gases by sharing their valence electrons.
  • The 3 hydrogen electrons are enough to make nitrogen isoelectronic with neon.
  • Also, the nitrogen with 3 lone pairs of electrons provides the bonding hydrogen with needed electrons to attain a structure similar to helium.

Luba_88 [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C. Supersaturated

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Solutions are homogeneous mixtures that are created by mixing a solute and a solvent. Solute is the substance present in smaller amounts that dissolves in a solvent such as water which is the substance present in larger amount.
  • A solution, can be<u> unsaturated, saturated or supersaturated. An unsaturated solution</u> is a solution that contains less solute that can be dissolved, it doesn't contain the maximum amount of solute.
  • <u>A saturated solution</u> is a solution containing the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature. Any additional solute will remain undissolved in the container.
  • <u>A supersaturated solution</u> is a solution created when a solution is carefully cooled because it contains more solute than the solubility allows.

On Earth, a brick has a mass of 10 kg and a weight of 5 lbs. What predictions could we make about the mass and weight of the bri
belka [17]

Answer:

Mass remains constant but weight reduces

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.

Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.

Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.

The electric potential at the origin of an xy-coordinate system is 40 V. A -8.0-μC charge is brought from x = +∞ to that point.
vredina [299]

Answer:

-320 μJ.

Explanation:

Consider a point with an electrical charge of q. Assume that V is the electrical potential at the position of that charge. The electrical potential of that point charge will be equal to:

\text{Potential Energy} = q \cdot V.

Keep in mind that since both q and V might not be positive, the size of the electrical potential energy might not be positive, either.

For this point charge,

  • q = \rm -8.0\; \mu C; (that's -8.0 microjoules, which equals to \rm -8.0\times 10^{-6}\; J)
  • V = \rm 40\; V.

Hence its electrical potential energy:

\text{Potential Energy} = q\cdot V = \rm (-8.0\; \mu C) \times 40\; V = -320\; \mu J.

Why is this value negative? The electrical potential energy of a charge is equal to the work needed to bring that charge from infinitely far away all the way to its current position. Also, negative charges are attracted towards regions of high electrical potential. Bringing this \rm -8.0\; \mu C negative charge to the origin will not require any external work. Instead, this process will release 320 μJ of energy. As a result, the electrical potential energy is a negative value.

<span>The correct option is D. Soil can best be described as the loose covering of weathered rocks and decaying organic matter. There are different types of soil, the type of soil formed depends majorly on the type of parent rock from which the soil is formed and the amount of organic matter present in the soil.</span>
