Walls made of paraffin wax, a covalent compound, help keep the temperature in a room steady as night changes into day and day in

to night. What is the most important property of covalent compounds that allows paraffin wax to help keep a room’s temperature level? The wall would not absorb or release any heat energy from the room or outside, so it would not affect the room’s temperature. The wall would not absorb heat during the day, but at night it would release heat that naturally exists inside of most covalent compounds. The wall would absorb extra heat during the day when the sun is out, then release the heat back into the room when the sun goes down. The wall would absorb extra heat during the day, and the wall would hold this heat in so that it cannot absorb any more heat from the night air.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds are the compounds in which atoms combine by sharing of electrons.

These compounds have weak forces of attraction and therefore, they easily heat up and thus, have low melting and boiling point.

Hence, the most important property of covalent compounds that allows paraffin wax to help keep a room’s temperature level is that the wall would absorb extra heat during the day when the sun is out, then release the heat back into the room when the sun goes down.

Help pleaseee!!!Please explain how evaporation condensation and precipitation are involved in the water cycle
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: The water cycle shows the continuous movement of water within the Earth and atmosphere. ... Liquid water evaporates into water vapor, condenses to form clouds, and precipitates back to earth in the form of rain and snow. Water in different phases moves through the atmosphere (transportation).

2Mg + O2à MgO For this unbalanced chemical equation, what is the coefficient for oxygen when the equation is balanced? A. 1 B. 2
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A. 1

Explanation:

Unbalanced chemical reaction

                      Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  MgO

               Reactants    Elements    Products

                       1            Magnesium       1

                       2           Oxygen              1

Balanced chemical reaction

                      2Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  2MgO

              Reactants    Elements    Products

                       2           Magnesium       2

                       2           Oxygen             2

Conclusion

The coefficients of the balanced equation are 2, 1, 2

Think about the lab procedure you just read. Label each factor below with V for “variable” or C for “constant”.
luda_lava [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>The temperature of the gas: V</h3>

The temperature of gas is a variable quantity. It can be changed by changing energy or pressure of gas.

<h3>The amount of gas in the tube (in terms of mass and moles): C</h3>

It is a constant entity. As mass of gas once taken can not be changed by changing temperature, pressure etc.

<h3>The radius of the tube: C</h3>

The radius of tube cannot change at any rate.

<h3>The temperature of the gas (changed by the water surrounding it):  V</h3>

It can be changed by changing the temperature of water surrounding it.

<h3>The type of gas: C</h3>

It can never be changed.

<h3>The pressure of the gas: V</h3>

It can be changed by simply changing temperature and volume of gas.
