In carbon dioxide (CO2), there are two oxygen atoms for each carbon atom. Each oxygen atom forms a double bond with carbon, so the molecule is formed by two double bonds. Two double bonds means that the total number of electrons being shared in the molecule is

two.
four.
six.
eight.

What postulate of the kinetic molecular theory best explains why gases have high fluidity? because collisions between gas particles are elastic, there is no loss of energy as particles flow past each other. because gases consist of large numbers of tiny particles, they spread out and do not come in contact with each other. because the attractive forces between gas particles are negligible, gas particles can glide easily past one another. because the average kinetic energy of gas particles increases as temperature increases, gas particles behave more like a liquid. question 6 compare the compressibility of gases and liquids. support your answer by describing the arrangement of particles in gases and liquids.

Agroup of students is studying convection currents. they fill two identical balloons with the same amount of helium. one balloon is placed in a freezer and the other in an area with warm air. after 10 minutes, the balloons are released from a height of 1 meter. which of the following do the students most likely observe? a. the balloons both rise. the cold balloon is larger than the warm balloon. b. the balloons rise at the same rate. both balloons are the same size. c. the warm balloon expands and rises. the cold balloon shrinks and sinks. d. the cold balloon expands and rises. the warm balloon shrinks and sinks.

If 34.2 grams of lithium react with excess water, how many liters of hydrogen gas can be produced at 299 kelvin and 1.21 atmospheres? 2 li (s) + 2 h2o (l) yields 2 lioh (aq) + h2 (g)
