Covalent compounds are composed of atoms that are linked via covalent bonds i.e. bonds formed by mutual sharing of electrons. This is in complete contrast to ionic compounds which are held together by ionic bonds, i.e. bonds formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.
In the given examples we have:
Barium nitrate: Ba(NO3)2 - Ionic
Dinitrogen tetroxide: N2O4- Covalent
Boron trifluoride: BF3-Covalent
Ammonium sulfate: (NH4)2SO4- Ionic
Carbon tetrachloride: CCl4- Covalent
Barium chloride: BaCl2 - Ionic
The most common hydrogen carbon fuels are ethanol and diesel and their product of combustion is carbon dioxide, water and heat .
I’d say A. They are theoretical in the fact that they have not been observed directly, but have been confirmed to exist through experimentation.
Answer:
Both are similar concepts.
Sound is the vibration of air particles (compression and expansion) the can reach your ears. But you can have vibration being propagated in liquids and solids as well.
Some sounds are generated in structures, so the vibration of a structure is converted to sound in air — for instance, a loudspeaker.
Explanation:
Answer:
a. glucose in water( solution)
b. smoke in air (colloids)
c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)
d. milk( colloids)
Explanation:
A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).
Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.
In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.
For example:
--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.
--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.
