Which has a greater surface tension: H20 or CH3CH2CH2CL? Explain

Chemistry

Water will have higher surface tension.

Explanation:

There are strong hydrogen bonds and strong intermolecular forces present in water. Water is polar in nature that is why surface tension is present in it. The force of attraction between the particles is the main factor for surface tension.

The cohesion force in the liquid causes surface tension.

Since the other substance is acetone which does not form strong intermolecular forces hence it has low value of surface tension. They have low cohesive forces and get stick to the surface and are spilled instead of attaining minimal volume.

What is the difference between energy levels, sub levels, and orbitals?
Lorico [155]

Explanation:

Orbitals are spaces that have a high probability of containing an electron. ... The s sublevel has just one orbital, so can contain 2 electrons max. The p sublevel has 3 orbitals, so can contain 6 electrons max. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals, so can contain 10 electrons max.

During a hot summer, air temperatures along a coastline are higher above the land than they are above the water, even though bot
mars1129 [50]

Over the ocean, the temperature rises much slower, because the water evaporates causing the hot molecules to go into the atmosphere, and the overall temperature of the water doesn't increase much, this causes the area without the water to be much hotter.

In order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent, what must be true?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

In order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent, the attractive forces between solute particles and the solvent particles must be stronger than the attractive forces between solute-solute and solvent-solvent particles. This is important so that the solute will remain in solution.
