Why methane has a low melting point

Chemistry

Simple molecular substances consist of molecules in which the atoms are joined by strong covalent bonds. However, the molecules are held together by weak forces so these substances have low melting and boiling points.

B. The rate of particle collisions increased with a higher temperature.

An <em>inference </em>is a guess that you make <em>based on an observation</em>. You can’t see the particles, so you are guessing (a) that they exist and (b) that the rate of their collisions increases with a higher temperature.

A, C, and D are all incorrect because they are <em>observations</em> that you make.

If 0.500 mol of each of the following solutes is dissolved in 2.0 L of water, which will cause the greatest increase in the boil
serious [3.7K]

Answer is: D. Na2SO4.

b(solution) = 0.500 mol ÷ 2.0 L.

b(solution) = 0.250 mol/L.

b(solution) = 0.250 m; molality of the solutions.

ΔT = Kf · b(solution) · i.

Kf - the freezing point depression constant.

i - Van 't Hoff factor.

Dissociation of sodium sulfate in water: Na₂SO₄(aq) → 2Na⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).

Sodium sulfate dissociates on sodium cations and sulfate anion, sodium sulfate has approximately i = 3.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium iodide (KI) have Van 't Hoff factor approximately i = 2.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) has covalent bonds (i = 1, do not dissociate on ions).

Because molality and the freezing point depression constant are constant, greatest freezing point lowering is solution with highest Van 't Hoff factor.

Myth: A dead organism is the same as a nonliving thing in science.<br><br> Fact:<br><br> Evidence:
Ilya [14]

I recently did this assignment!

Instructions: Read each myth (untruth). Reword it to make a factual statement. Then, give two to three reasons why the myth is untrue. Use complete sentences and support your answer with evidence, using your own words.  

________________________________________

Answer:

Myth: A dead organism is the same as a nonliving thing in science.

o Fact: In science, dead is the same as nonliving.

o Evidence: Things that are nonliving never had the characteristics of life, and never will. Things that are dead once did have the characteristics of life, but when they die, they lose some of the characteristics. That is why dead and non-living are NOT the same thing.

Hope this helped!

Have an Amazing day!

A substance that can be broken down into simpler subtend only by a chemical change is aa. homogenous mixtureb. heterogeneous mix
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

d. compound

Explanation:

<u>Mixture </u>: It is defined as the substance that is made by the combination of two or more different components which are physically combined.

<u>Homogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are uniformly mixed. <u>Heterogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are not uniformly mixed.

<u> Compound :</u> It is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass and are chemically bonded.

<u> Element :</u> It is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.

<u>As discussed above,  The different elements in the compounds are chemically bonded and hence, it is the substance which can be broken down into the simpler units when it subtend only by the chemical change.</u>
