Which of these solid compounds are most likely to have its dominant bonding mechanism as covalent? (Select all that are true.)

Chemistry

The compounds that have covalent bonding as their dominant bonding scheme are diamond and silica.

A covalent bond is formed between two nonmetals. Usually, when two nonmetals combine, electrons are shared between the two atoms involved in the bond.

Now, the solids diamond and silica are predominantly covalent solids. The atoms that combine in diamond are carbon atoms(nonmetals) while the atoms that combine in silica are silicon and oxygen (nonmetals also)

Hence, diamond and silica both have covalent bonding as their dominant bonding scheme.

The masses of four objects are given in this table. If all of the objects have the same acceleration, which will require the gre
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Object 4 in the example

Explanation:

For simplicity and a clearer view of this problem, let's assume that four masses from 1 to 4 have the the masses 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg respectively.

According to the second Newton's law, we know that force is directly proportional to both mass and acceleration. The equation representing this is F = ma.

Notice that all of them have the same acceleration. This means, the greater the mass, the greater the force for a fixed acceleration. Simply speaking, the forces for each of the objects would be 2a, 4a, 6a and 8a respectively.

Since we're interested in the magnitude of the force and not direction, we neglect whether acceleration is positive or negative. This means that object 4 will require the greatest force to move, as it has the greatest mass.

A plant extract can be obtained with organic solvents such as acetone or ethyl alcohol and is composed of plant pigments such as
iVinArrow [24]

Plant is complex biological organism which is composed of many organic molecules that fulfill different roles in the plant, some will give the color of the plant, some are "energy reactors" like chlorophyll which capture the photons for promoting certain chemical reactions. Now the organic solvents like acetone and ethyl alcohol do not discriminate between the compounds so the solvent will extract many different molecules from the plant. The extract will be definitely a heterogeneous one.

Using a thin lay chromatography plate you may determine the spots for each organic compound as well as their retention factor for the solvent used as eluent.  After concentration the solution, under vacuum, the mixture may be loaded in a chromatography column, previously filled with silica gel as stationary phase. After the elution and collection of each fraction, that contain a different molecule, the plant extract is separated.

When a theory is disproved by further evidence, which of the following occurs?
kati45 [8]
Answer: D. New data must be found to support it

When a theory is disproved by other further evidence, it is just proper to look for new data to support the theory until it is proven otherwise. It cannot be considered a failure right away but cannot be part of the scientifi knowledge too and more not to become a law.
