The answer should be hydrogen bonding. Water only has oxygen and hydrogen in it, which are both nonmetals, so you know the answer cannot be metallic or ionic. It also cannot be nonpolar because the electronegativity of the oxygens will make the molecule polar. You can also know it is hydrogen bonding because it can only take place when a hydrogen is attached to an oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen. These bonds are very strong attractions, so the molecules are extremely hard to pull apart, creating a high boiling point. Hope that helps!

How did Bohr refine the model of the atom? How did Bohr refine the model of the atom? He developed electrochemistry. He discover
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

He developed the concept of concentric electron energy levels

Explanation:

Before Bohr's model, Rutherford's model was proposed. This model explains most of the properties of the atom but failed to explain the stability of the atom.

As per Rutherford's model, electrons revolve around the nucleus in the orbit.

But revolving electron in their orbit around nucleus would give up energy and so gradually move towards the nucleus and therefore, eventually collapse.

Bohr's proposed that the electrons around the nucleus move orbit of fixed energy called "stationary states". Electrons in these stationary states  do not radiate energy.

Therefore, proposal of concentric electron energy levels refine the atomic models.

Limestone stalactites and stalagmites are formed in caves by the following reaction: Ca2 (aq) 2HCO−3(aq)→CaCO3(s) CO2(g) H2O(l)
Vesna [10]

Answer : The value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

Explanation :

First law of thermodynamic : It states that the energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only change or transfer from one state to another state.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

\Delta E=q+w

where,

\Delta E = internal energy  of the system

q = heat added or rejected by the system

w = work done

As we are given that:

q = 38.65 kJ

w = -2.47 kJ (system work done on surrounding)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\Delta E=38.65kJ+(-2.47kJ)

\Delta E=36.18kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

All weather is energy in motion. Where does the energy come from
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The Sun radiates huge amounts of energy. Only a small portion of that energy hits the Earth, but it is enough to light our days, heat our air and land, and create weather systems over the oceans. Most of the energy you will learn about comes from the Sun. The Earth also gives off energy.

Which statement best explains why calcium has a larger atomic radius than magnesium? A. Calcium has a stronger nuclear charge th
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium

Explanation:

atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.

Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells

electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows

Mg - 2,8,2

Ca - 2,8,8,2

outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level

whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell

therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside
