Answer: I believe C is your best answer

Explanation: The earth revolves around the sun in an elongated circle. Every year is one full “circle.” Due to the earth also having a tilt on its axis, one “side” of the earth is usually closer to the sun. So In the first quarter of the earth’s travel around the sun, it’ll be winter, then the next quarter, spring, followed by Summer halfway through and then Autumn/fall. Such can be compared to how the seasons each usually fill in about a quarter of your calendar. That was explained a bit confusing but I hope I helped, good luck!

Tell whether the statement is TRUE or FALSE. This symbol means every element is in both sets (A ⊆ B).
Airida [17]

24. <span>Valence electrons are most loosely held by the atom and are involved in chemical reactions. Chemical reactions occur when valence electrons are shared between atoms. The number of valence electrons determines how these reactions take place and what kind of bonds they form.

25 </span><span>Sodium has one valence electron and chlorine has seven valence electrons. The Ione valence electron from sodium is lost and is transferred to the chlorine atom. The result is a sodium ion with a charge of 1+ and a chloride ion with a charge of 1-. The oppositely charged ions attract each other and the charges balance to make a compound that is electrically neutral.

26. </span><span>Ionic compounds have high melting points and high boiling points compared to molecular compounds. Ionic compounds that are dissolved in water or melted will conduct electricity. Molecular compounds do not conduct electricity in either case. 

27. </span><span>A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share valence electrons. Neither atom loses electrons or takes electrons from the other. No charged particles form. In an ionic bond, one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another. Atoms that lose electrons become positively charged ions, and atoms that gain electrons become negatively charged ions. These oppositely charged particles then attract each other.

28. </span><span>A metal crystal consists of positively charged metal ions embedded in a "sea" of loosely held valence electrons that can move around easily. Heat travels through materials as the increased motion of the particles in the hotter parts of the material is passed along to the particles in the cooler parts. In a metal, since particles are easily set in motion, heat is easily transferred or conducted. The same is true for the conduction of electricity. Electricity can flow when charged particles, such as electrons, are free to move. Since the electrons in a metal crystal can move freely among the atoms, electricity is easily conducted.</span>

A student has two compounds in two separate bottles but with no labels on either one. One is an unbranched alkane, octane, C8H18
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a) both substances are insoluble in water

b) both substances are soluble in ligroin

c) both substances suffer combustion, octane produces more CO₂ than hexene.

d) both substances are less dense than waterl, with hexene having the lowest density.

e) only hexene would react with bromine

f)  only hexene would react with permanganate

Explanation:

a) both substances are non-polar and water is polar

b) both substances are non-polar and lingroin is non-polar

c) C₈H₁₈ + 17.5O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

    C₆H₁₂ + 9O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

d) water = 997 kg/m³

    ocatne = 703 kg/m³

    hexene = 673 kg/m³

e) bromine test is used to detect unsaturations

f) permanganate test is used to detect unsaturations

A beaker is filled to the 500 mL mark with alcohol. What increase in volume (in mL) does the beaker contain when the temperature
Aliun [14]

Answer:

"1.4 mL" is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

According to the question,

  • v_0=500
  • \alpha =1.12\times 10^{-4}
  • \Delta \epsilon = 25

Now,

Increase in volume will be:

⇒ \Delta V = \alpha\times v_0\times \Delta \epsilon

By putting the given values, we get

           =1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 500\times 25

           =1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 12500

           =1.4  \ mL
