Reil [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Due to the known fact that certain animal ect lived on certain country/continents due to climate water type ect when fossils of various animal where found in unusual parts of the earth the theory came that all the continent where joined together due to fossil and rock types being found on continents in which would be impossible to reach if not joined together in the beginning

If water were a linear (not bent) molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker. wh
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer;

The partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

Explanation;

Water is a polar molecule because the electrons are not shared equally, they're closer to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen.

-Normally, the water molecule is a bent shape because of the pair of lone electrons - they repulse each other and exert a compression to the hydrogen atoms at a slight 104º angle. It is a bent molecular geometry that results from tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

-The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104 degrees bond angle. Therefore, the water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs.

Thus, If water were a linear molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker, then the partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

The air in a 2 L balloon at 0.998 atm and 34.0 °C. What will be its pressure if it is brought to a higher altitude where it now
Phantasy [73]

Answer: 0.529 atm

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 0.998 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 2 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 3.5 L

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 34.0^oC=273+34.0=307.0K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 12.0^oC=273+12.0=285.0K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{0.998\times 2}{307.0K}=\frac{P_2\times 3.5}{285.0K}

P_2=0.529atm

Thus the pressure if it is brought to a higher altitude where it now occupies 3.5 L and is at 12.0 °C is 0.529 atm

Part A Which of the following groups comprise the s-block of elements? View Available Hint(s) A) groups 3-12 B) group 18 C) grou
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

D)groups 1 and 2 ​

Explanation:

The s-block of elements are made up of those chemical elements we can find in groups 1 and 2 on the periodic table.

A periodic table of element is based on the periodic law which states that "the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number".

In the table;

  • elements having the same number of electrons in the outermost shell are placed over one another in vertical columns.
  • each resulting vertical column is called a group or family.
  • resulting horizontal rows are known as periods.  

The s-block consists of elements in groups 1 and 2 having an outermost ""ns"" shell configuration. They are predominantly metals.

For Option A, groups 3-12 is the D-block

Option B, group 18 is filled with noble gases and it makes up the p-block

Option C, group 13-18 is makes up the p-block too.

So, the s-block is made up group 1 and 2 elements.

4. What parts of Dalton’s atomic theory no longer agree with the current picture of the atom? Provide an answer using 3 – 4 sent
pogonyaev
<span>Since you did not show any picture, I will be describing Dalton’s atomic theory. The scientist thought that the atom was the smallest particle in the universe is John Dalton. He established five theories relating atoms. One, elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms. Two, atoms of different element have different sizes, mass and physico – chemical properties. Three, atoms cannot be divided further, destroyed or created. It also follows the law of conservation of energy. Fourth, atoms can combine to form compounds. And lastly, in chemical reaction, atoms can be combined, separated or rearranged. </span>
