Answer:

Both oil and gasoline molecules are nonpolar, while water is polar. Nonpolar solvents have a tendency to dissolve other nonpolar molecules.

Explanation:

Molecules may be categorized as "polar" or "nonpolar" according to <em>difference in the atom's electronegativity.</em>

<u>Water is polar</u> because it consists of two types of atoms that<em> do not cancel out each other.</em> It is made of two atoms of Hydrogen and only one atom of Oxygen. This makes the Oxygen<u> partially negative</u> and the Hydrogen <u>partially positive.</u> This allows them to readily bond with other polar molecules like sugar. However, it cannot mix freely with oil and gasoline because<em> both of these are nonpolar. </em>Nonpolar molecules do not have much difference when it comes to their atoms' electronegativity. <em>Therefore, they have the tendency to dissolve molecules which are nonpolar as well. </em>This explains why oil molecules can mix freely with gasoline.

A gas exerts a pressure of 0.62 atm. Convert this to kPa and mmHg. Be sure to show your work.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.62 atm = 62.82 kPa = 471.2 mmHg

Explanation:

Data

P = 0.62 atm

P = ? kPa

P = ? mmHg

Process

1.- Look for the conversion factor of atm to kPa and mmHg

 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

1 atm = 760 mmHg

2.- Do the conversions

                  1 atm ----------------- 101.325 kPa

                  0.62 atm ------------  x

                   x = (0,62 x 101.325) / 1

                  x = 62.82 kPa

                   1 atm ------------------ 760 mmHg

                   0.62 atm ------------  x

                   x = (0.62 x 760)/1

                   x = 471.2 mmHg

Which concept can explain the acidic character of Carbon dioxide?​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The concept of lewis acids and bases can explain the acidic nature of CO2. A lewis acid is a compound which can accept an electron pair whereas a lewis base is a compound which can donate an electron pair. CO2 acts as a lewis acid.
