Water particles are both cohesive and adhesive. What does this mean? How do these behaviors differ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tresset [83]3 years ago

Answer: Cohesion: Water is attracted to water

               Adhesion: Water is attracted to other substances

Explanation: Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that affect every water molecule on Earth and also the interaction of water molecules with molecules of other substances. Essentially, cohesion and adhesion are the "stickiness" that water molecules have for each other and for other substances.

Hope it helps :)

Give an example of a time when you would want to increase friction.
Snezhnost [94]

1) you want to increase friction when it gets cold. If you're outside and it's really cold, you're going to rub your hands to warm them up, therefore friction is increasing

I'm not do sure about decreasing.

erica [24]

Answer:

194.6 mL of SO₂

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

P₄S₃ + 6O₂(g) → P₄O₁₀ + 3SO₂(g)

<u>To solve this problem we need to use PV=nRT</u>, so first let's convert the given units:

  • 23.8 °C → 23.8 + 273.15 = 296.95 K
  • 747 torr → 747/760 = 0.983 atm

We need to calculate V, so in order to do that we calculate n, using the mass of the reactant (P₄S₃):

0.576 g P₄S₃ * \frac{1molP_{4}S_{3}}{220gP_{4}S_{3}} *\frac{3molSO_{2}}{1molP_{4}S_{3}} = 7.85 * 10⁻³ mol SO₂ = n

  • Now we calculate V:

PV=nRT

0.983 atm * V =  7.85 * 10⁻³ mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 296.95 K

V = 0.1946 L

  • Finally we convert L into mL:

0.1946 * 1000 = 194.6 mL

What similarities do nuclear energy and chemical energy share?
nadya68 [22]
Atoms can be the source of both nuclear and chemical energy. Nuclear energy involves the atom's nucleus; chemical energy involves the atom's electrons—subatomic particles that surround the nucleus.
