Water is a polar molecule, meaning the electrons that are shared between the atoms aren't shared equally so oxygen attracts more

electrons than hydrogen. What analogy best compares this?

Answer:

Magnet with a positive and a negative pole

Explanation:

A great analogy to demonstrate what a polar molecule looks like is to imagine a magnet. A magnet has one positively charged end and one negatively charged end, two poles, that is.

Imagine that we have a magnet of a shape of a prism (water molecule has a bent shape). The two base vertices of the face of the triangle are positively charged, that's because hydrogen is less electronegative than oxygen and, hence, the two hydrogen atoms are partially positively charged in a water molecule.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen meaning it has a greater electron-withdrawing force, so electrons are closer to oxygen within the O-H bonds. Oxygen, as a result, becomes partially negatively charged, so it's our negative pole of the magnet.

The two naturally occurring isotopes of antimony, 121Sb (57.21 percent) and 123Sb (42.79 percent), have masses of 120.904 and 12
Alex

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Formula used to determine an average atomic mass :

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i

Mass of isotope Sb-121 = 120.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-121 = 57.21% = 0.5721

Mass of isotope Sb-123 = 122.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-123 = 42.79% = 0.4279

Average atomic mass of Sb:

120.904 amu\times 0.5721+ 122.904 amu\times 0.4279=121.7598 amu \approx 121.76 amu

Use the kinetic energy equation to explain why speed has a greater impact on kinetic energy than mass.​
Lerok [7]

Answer: <em>Hopefully this helps! sorry if not. :))</em>

<em></em>

<em>Speed has a greater impact on mass because its increases in velocity have an exponentially greater impact on translational kinetic energy because kinetic energy is proportional to velocity squared. Doubling an object's mass would only double its kinetic energy, however doubling its momentum would quadruple its velocity.</em>

Answer:

GAY-LUSSAC'S LAW.

Explanation:

P1 = 765 torr

T1 = 23°C = 296K

P2 = 560. torr

T2 = ?

(765 torr)/(296K) = (560. torr)/ T2

T2 = 226 K = -57°C

When heating a chemical solution over an open flame in a test tube you should - A. keep a cork in the test tube so the solution
Alla [95]

Hello.

The answer is:  A. keep a cork in the test tube so the solution cannot spill out

B and C both could be very deadly and it shouldnt be D because if u have an open flame you shouldnt open it even if its not towards anyone.

have a nice day
