3. Which of the following provides the best explanation for why the water drop does not slide off the inclined plane? 90 80 70
50
40
30
10
O A The polar water molecules are absorbed by the underlying surface.
OB The polar water molecules cause the surface to become temporarily charged, causing adhesion
OC The polar water molecules exert strong cohesive forces on one another
OD. The polar water molecules are repelled by the nonpolar surface

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

x

10

23

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

f

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.
