Answer:
C. An electron has a high probability of being in certain regions.
Explanation:
In the electron cloud model, there are no electron-orbits around the nucleus but a cloud. This cloud has various densities with respect to distance from the nucleus. The most dense region of the cloud (which is the region close to the nucleus) is where electrons has the highest probability of existence.
The model explains that an electron a greater chance of being in the region closer to the nucleus. Thus, an electron has a high probability of being in certain region of the cloud about the central nucleus. And an electrostatic force exists between the nucleus and the electrons.
"The other halogens are not as electronegative and so other hydrogen halides cannot form hydrogen bonds between molecules. Only London Forces are formed. - Therefore more energy is required to break the intermolecular forces in HF than the other hydrogen halides and so it has a higher boiling point."
not a hack link, just stating where i got your answer from! -

Answer:
1) 0 N
2) 8 N
Explanation:
The net force is the sum of all of the forces acting on the object.
For question 1, we can see that there is a force of 5 N acting to the right and 5 N acting to the left. If we define the right to be positive and the left to be negative, then the net force equals:
Fnet = 5N - 5N = 0 N
Therefore, the net force in question 1 is 0 N.
For question 2, the process is very similar. We want to find the sum of the forces acting on the object. In this case, there are forces of 3 N and 5 N acting to the right.
Fnet = 3 N + 5 N = 8 N
Therefore, the net force in question 2 is 8 N.
Hope this helps!
Unburned hydrocarbon on reacting with oxygen undergoes combustion reaction. However, the activation energy of this reaction is significantly high. When a catalyst like Pd is added to the reaction system, it provides active sites for the reaction to occur. It acts are a heterogeneous catalyst. It is pertinent of note that catalyst is refereed as heterogeneous, when it exist in different phase as compared to reactant and products. In present case, reactants and products are in gas phase, while catalyst is in solid phase. Due to availability of larger surface area at active site of Pd, activation energy of reaction decreases and decrease in activation energy favors higher reaction rates.
I believe that it most likely would be C,
