Answer is: C) the fact that the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom is greater in the case of water.
Carbon(IV) oxide is nonpolar because CO₂ is linear molecule and the oxygen atoms are symmetrical (bond angles 180°).
Water is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule.
Oxygen atom in water molecule has sp3 hybridization. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is approximately 104.45°.
Oxygen atom has atomic number 8, it means it has eight protons and eight electrons, so atom has neutral charge. Oxygen is a nonmetal.
Electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.
Oxygen atom has six valence electrons
, two lone pairs and two electrons that form two sigma bonds with hydrogen atoms.
Carbon is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6, which means it has 6 protons and six electrons. Four valence electrons are in 2s and 2p orbitals.
Electron configuration of carbon atom: ₆C 1s² 2s² 2p².
In carbon dioxide, carban has sp hybridization with no lone pairs.
The equilibrium expression shows the ratio between
products and reactants. This expression is equal to the concentration of the
products raised to its coefficient divided by the concentration of the
reactants raised to its coefficient. The correct equilibrium expression for the
given reaction is:<span>
<span>H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) = H3O+(aq) + HCO3-1(aq)
Kc = [HCO3-1] [H3O+] / [H2O] [H2CO3]</span></span>
The acceleration is defined by force divided by the mass of the object. So, When the smaller object is hit by a small force, it can produce equal acceleration which is same as that of the bigger body hit with large force.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Force is defined as the product of the mass of the body its applied to and the acceleration of the body in the direction of the force. So acceleration is force divided by the mass of the body.
Let the mass of the smaller body be m and that of the larger body be M.
The smaller force applied on the smaller body be f and the larger force applied on the larger body be F.
So acceleration of the larger body = F/M.
Acceleration of the smaller body = f/m.
For the accelerations to be same,
F/M = f/m.
Or F/f = M/m.
So when the ratio of the force applied on two bodies is in ratio of their masses, the acceleration becomes equal.
The force that accelerates objects towards Earth is gravity.
