Answer:

Symmetrical and non polar

Explanation:

H- C = C- H is a symmetrical, non polar molecule since it is linear and the arrangement of the atoms is the same on both sides of the triple bond.

Answer:

B) Symmetrical and nonpolar  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is H-C≡C-H.

Each C atom has <em>two</em> electron regions, so VSEPR theory predicts a <em>linear molecular geometry</em> (see image below).

The molecule is symmetrical, because the green line divides the molecule into two halves that are mirror images of each other.

The C-H bonds are slightly polar, because C is more electronegative than H (µ ≈ 0.4 D).

The C atoms are partially negative (red), while the H atoms are partially positive (blue).

However, the two C-H bond dipoles point in <em>opposite directions</em>, so they cancel each other. The molecule has <em>no net dipole moment.</em>

Acetylene is nonpolar.

Explain how muscle cells, blood cells and small intestine cells work together to keep the body moving.
spayn [35]

Answer:

Cells are considered the fundamental units of life. The cells in complex multicellular organisms like people are organized into tissues, groups of similar cells that work together on a specific task. ... At each level of organization—cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems—structure is closely related to function.

Hope this is helpful :)

Hoochie [10]
B
mass of solute - 4.0 g
mass of solution - 100g + 4.0g = 104g
4/104 = 0.03846

Is a diamond a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

It's a heterogeneous mixture.

Explanation:

Diamond is made of just one element: carbon. Each carbon atom in diamond is connected to four other carbon atoms, in a crystal that extends on and on. There are other forms of pure carbon where the atoms are bonded differently, notably charcoal and graphite.

How the proton H gradient is used to make ATP
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The proton gradient produced by proton pumping during the electron transport chain is used to synthesize ATP. Protons flow down their concentration gradient into the matrix through the membrane protein ATP synthase, causing it to spin (like a water wheel) and catalyze conversion of ADP to ATP.
