- Many molecules are described as polar; that is, they have regions that are positively or negatively charged, though they are neutral overall. Draw a diagram to show how sausage-shaped polar molecules like those shown in Figure 8.8 might realign themselves in a solid.arrow_forward⦁ A 5.0-L sample of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is stored at a temperature of 250.0 K and a pressure of67.0 Pa. If the pressure is decreased to 60.0 Pa, what will the new temperature be? ⦁ Imagine that you fill a balloon at sea level (1.0 atm) with 18 L of air. You are taking the balloon to Denver, Colorado, for a birthday party. Colorado is the “Mile High State,” and Denver has an air pressure of 0.85 atm. When you get to the party, what will the volume of the balloon be?arrow_forwardA 250 mL aqueous solution contains 2.37 g of copper(II) chloride. The dissolved copper(II) chloride is dissociated into copper(II) and chloride ions. Each copper(II) ion has two less electrons than protons. A scientist wishes to use an electroplating process to reduce the 1.12 g of copper ions to solid copper atoms. To be reduced from the ion form to the atom form, a copper(II) ion must gain two electrons. Each gram of copper(II) ions contains 9.48 x 1021 ions. Determine the total quantity of charge that must be supplied to turn the copper(II) ions into solid copper atpmsarrow_forward
