Substances x and y are both nonpolar. if the volatility of x is higher than that of y, what is the best explanation? x’s molecules experience stronger dipole-dipole forces than y’s molecules. y’s molecules experience stronger dipole-dipole forces than x’s molecules. x’s molecules experience stronger london dispersion forces than y’s molecules. y’s molecules experience stronger london dispersion forces than x’s molecules.

Describe the chemical reaction based on the chemical equation below. also, explain whether the equation is balanced.

Water molecules have a strong attraction to each other because of hydrogen bonding, allowing water to move against gravity up a plant's stem through capillary action. true false

Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.
