Similar to Cohesion, adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different substances . Water uses adhesion when it's attraction to another substance is greater than the water's attraction to itself. if you have ever dropped a cup of water on a hardwood floor,you know that it spreads out instead of foaming beads.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The activation energy for an endothermic reaction is quite large and usually takes extra energy from the environment, it is normally not a natural spontaneous process.

Explanation:

  • Endothermic reactions require absorbing energy of the surrounding mainly in the form of heat.
  • Chemical energy needs energy input to break the bonds.

The electronegativity is 2.1 for h and 1.9 for pb. based on these electronegativities pbh4 would be expected to
Sedbober [7]
PbH4 will be formed as a result of a polar covalent bond between the H and the Pb.

Since H is more electronegative than the Pb, it is, thus, expected that the H would be able to pull the electron charge towards itself. This will result in the H being negative.

Based on this:
PbH4 would be expected to <span>have polar covalent bonds with a partial negative charges on the H atoms. </span>
