(a)
Interpretation:
The expected shape of raindrops is to be stated. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Surface tension is the tension of a liquid surface that causes due to the attraction of liquid particles in the liquid surface by the liquid particle present in the bulk of the liquid. The surface tension tries to attain minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression shown below.
(b)
Interpretation:
The shape of a distorted raindrop is to be predicted.

- If water were a linear molecule, (a) would it still be polar, and (b) would the water molecules still be able to form hydrogen bonds with one another?arrow_forwardQ3(a) Identify any two causes of nonlinearity in Beer's law and evaluate the above identified causes.arrow_forwardWhich statement is no of Brownian motion? It is independent of temperature. It is due to the random fluctuation of the energy content of the environment. It causes the random movement of pollen granules suspended in water. It is due to thermal noise.arrow_forward
- Write real life application examples of isostatic, syndiotactic and atactic configurationsarrow_forwardPlease answer the following question about a lab experiment about synthesizing aspirin. The procedure for this experiment is included in the photos. If after reheating the aspirin/ethanol/water mixture, the crystals do not appear upon cooling, why would boiling off some solvent make the crystals appear?arrow_forwardSketch a 201 plane. Be sure to label the axes.arrow_forward
- Describe the kinds of molecular motion that a molecule can process?arrow_forwardCoulombs Law describes the interaction between two charges and varies by the magnitude of these charges and inversely with the distance between them. For atoms, we'll label the charges as the nuclear charge and electron charge. 9192 9nuclelec As you go up in atomic number (Z), the number of protons in the nucleus increases, making the charge on the nucleus increase, so that in general. qnuc = Z ·(+1) However if we think only of the electrons in the outermost shells (valence electrons), they do not see the full strength of the nuclear charge because it is partially shielded (or canceled out if you prefer) by the core electrons. So we define something called effective charge. Shielding Experiences net charge of about 1+ Nucleus Effective Charge = # of protons Zeff = Z – core # of core electrons In general, Zeff increases as you go across in the periodic table. 1. Fill out the following table to verify that effective charge increases as you go across a row. Element Na Mg Al Si P S CI Ar…arrow_forwardHydrazine 1H2NNH22, hydrogen peroxide (HOOH), andwater 1H2O2 all have exceptionally high surface tensionscompared with other substances of comparable molecularweights. (a) Draw the Lewis structures for these three compounds.(b) What structural property do these substanceshave in common, and how might that account for the highsurface tensions?arrow_forward
