At higher elevations, the boiling point of water decreases, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. as a result, what could be
said about hard boiling an egg?
a. at higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is less atmospheric
pressure.
b. at higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point,
the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.
c. at higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point
therefore it would take less time to achieve the boiling point.
d. at higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because it would take longer to achieve
the boiling point

The correct answer is option c. "At higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point. Therefore it would take less time to achieve the boiling point".

Explanation:

The elevation has a inversely related effect on the boiling point of water. For instance, water boils at 100 °C at sea level, but it is reduced to 93.4 °C at 1,905 meters  of altitude. At higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point. Therefore it would take less time to achieve the boiling point, and the water would boil faster than it does at sea level.

water is a polar molecule. a chemical bond is a force of attraction between atoms or ions. bonds form when atoms share or transfer valence electrons. atoms form chemical bonds to achieve a full outer energy level, which is the most stable arrangement of electrons. so, false

explanation:

in h2o molecule, two water molecules are bonded by a hydrogen bond but the bond between two h - o bonds within a water molecule are covalent. the greater the electronegativity difference, the more ionic the bond is. bonds that are partly ionic are called polar covalent bonds. nonpolar covalent bonds, with equal sharing of the bond electrons, arise when the electronegativities of the two atoms are equal.
