Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A pure substance is defined a substance that contains atoms of same element and it has constant composition throughout the sample.

For example, sulfur, $H_{2}$ , nitrogen etc are all pure substances.

Whereas a compound is a substance that contains two or more substances which are combined together in a fixed composition.

For example, NaCl is a compound.

When components of solute are uniformly distributed in a solvent then the solution is known as homogeneous solution.

When components of solute are non-uniformly distributed in a solvent then the solution is known as heterogeneous solution.

Thus, we can conclude that elements are considered pure substances.

QveST [7]

Answer:

CH₄

Explanation:

CH₃OH has hydrogen bonding due to the OH group present

NH₃ also has hydrogen bonding due to the NH bonds

H₂S has dipole-dipole forces present due to the polar SH bonds

HCl also has dipole-dipole forces due to the polar HCl bond

CO2(g) + H2O(I) - -> C6H12O6(s) + O2(g)

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

For instance equation C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2 + H2O will not be balanced, but PhC2H5 + O2 = PhOH + CO2 + H2O will; Compound states [like (s) (aq) or (g)] are not required. If you do not know what products are enter reagents only and click 'Balance'. In many cases a complete equation will be suggested.

List the following bond types in order of increasing strength: non-polar covalent bonds, ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds, polar cova

ss7ja [257]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two chemically combining atoms.

In an ionic bond, there occurs attraction between oppositely charged ions due to which there occurs strong forces of attraction between them. Therefore, ionic bonds are the strongest bonds.

A polar covalent bond is formed due to unequal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, $H_{2}O$ is a polar covalent compound. Partial opposite charges tend to develop on the atoms of a polar covalent compound.

A non-polar covalent bond is formed due to equal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, $Cl_{2}$ is a non-polar covalent molecule. No partial charges will be there on the atoms of a non-polar covalent molecule.

A hydrogen bond is defined as the bond formed between a hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom.

For example, in HCl compound there occurs hydrogen bonding.

In this type of bond, dipole-dipole attractive interactions tend to take place. And, strength of hydrogen bonds is very weak.

Thus, we can conclude that given bond types are arranged in order of increasing strength as follows.

Hydrogen bonds < non-polar covalent bonds < polar covalent bonds < ionic bonds
