She needs to know the distance from LA to SF.

Call that distance x. Then you can calculate the cost from:

# of gallons consumed: x miles / 38 miles/ gallon = (x/38) gallons

After that,

cost = # gallons * cost per gallon = (x/38) gallons * 4 $/gallon = 4x/38 $

Because water molecules are polar and carbon dioxide molecules are nonpolar,
Gala2k [10]

The correct is D.

Water is a polar molecule and it has polar bonds, which carry partially positive and partially negative charges. This polar bond increases the attraction between molecules of water and thus it requires a greater energy to break the bond between the molecules of water compare to carbon dioxide, which is a non polar molecule. Thus, water has a higher boiling point than carbon dioxide.

Fluorine (F) has seven electrons in its outermost shell. Fluorine _____.
kow [346]
Fluorine is a nonmetal and as such it would need to take in or obtain an electron from a metal to have a stable octet, or full number of 8 electrons in its valence shell. Thus due to the indifference of electrons and protons it becomes an anion, a negatively charged ion.
