Answer: A. It is made of polar molecules.
Explanation:
A polar molecule refers to a molecule that has a covalent bond but has an uneven distribution of electrons due to an atom in the molecule having strong electronegativity which will attract more of the electrons from the other atom.
Water is such a molecule because Oxygen has strong electronegativity which leads to electrons being pulled to it.
Answer:
C. CH₄ is less than NH₃ because the NH bond is more polar than the CH bond
Explanation:
The intermolecular forces between ammonia is far stronger than for methane. Between the molecules of ammonia we have the presence of hydrogen bonds. This bond is absent in methane.
Hydrogen bonds are one of the strongest intermolecular forces. It is as a result of the electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom N, O and F of another molecule.
- This strong interaction is absent in methane which has just dipole - dipole attraction.
The strength of the hydrogen bond depends on the electronegativity of the combining atoms.
Answer:
The independent variable is what you change in the experiment.
Explanation:
The independent determines the dependent variable.
Answer:
1.31x10⁻³ moles of H₂
Explanation:
This is the equation:
Mg(s) + 2H₂O (g) → Mg(OH)₂ (aq) + H₂(g)
Ratio is 1:1, so 1 mol of Mg is needed to produce 1 mol of H₂
Mass / Molar mass = Mol
0.032 g / 24.3 g/m = 1.31x10⁻³ moles
1.31x10⁻³ moles of H₂(g)
