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.

If 1.76 g of an ideal gas occupy 1.0 L at standard temperature and pressure (STP), what is the molar mass of the gas?
ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Whenever you see molar masses in gas law questions, more often than not density will be involved. This question is no different. To solve this, however, we will first need to play with the combined ideal gas equation PV=nRT to make it work for density and molar mass. The derivation is simple but for the sake of time and space, I will skip it. Hence, just take my word for it that you will end up with the equation:M=dRTPM = molar mass (g/mol)d = density (g/L)R = Ideal Gas Constant (≈0.0821atm⋅Lmol⋅K) T = Temperature (In Kelvin) P = Pressure (atm)As an aside, note that because calculations with this equation involve molar mass, this is the only variation of the ideal gas law in which the identity of the gas plays a role in your calculations. Just something to take note of. Back to the problem: Now, looking back at what we're given, we will need to make some unit conversions to ensure everything matches the dimensions required by the equation:T=35oC+273.15= 308.15 KV=300mL⋅1000mL1L= 0.300 LP=789mmHg⋅1atm760mmHg= 1.038 atmSo, we have almost everything we need to simply plug into the equation. The last thing we need is density. How do we find density? Notice we're given the mass of the sample (0.622 g). All we need to do is divide this by volume, and we have density:d=0.622g0.300L= 2.073 g/LNow, we can plug in everything. When you punch the numbers into your calculator, however, make sure you use the stored values you got from the actual conversions, and not the rounded ones. This will help you ensure accuracy.M=dRTP=(2.073)(0.0821)(308.15)1.038= 51 g/molRounded to 2 significant figuresNow if you were asked to identify which element this is based on your calculation, your best bet would probably be Vandium (molar mass 50.94 g/mol). Hope that helped :)

After mitosis, you have 2 cells that are the same as the parent cell. Why is it that your first cell was not the same as your pa
ladessa [460]

Answer:

During MITOSIS, the parent, diploid (2n), cell is divided to create two identical, diploid (2n), daughter cells. ... After cytokinesis, the ploidy of the daughter cells remains the same because each daughter cell contains 4 chromatids, as the parent cell did.
