Recently we're working to degrade accounts with 0 contributions from creator to learner. If you're a learner and very keen to be a creator, you must keep posting interesting questions and contact to admins from the Facebook Group of Mattrab Community. For being an admin, you must be in grade 12, either completed or recently enrolled, your notes, and all your records and contributions will be verified for that
Yes, a physical quantity can have magnitude and direction but still be a scalar if it doesn't obey the vector addition. An example is Electric Current which has magnitude and a fixed direction, but it does not follow vector laws of addition.
Compounds with hydrogen bonding tend to have higher melting and boiling points because the hydrogen bonding leads to stronger intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces are the attractive forces between molecules, and they affect the physical properties of a substance, including melting and boiling points.
Hydrogen bonding is a particularly strong type of intermolecular force that occurs when a hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine....
zinc will react with sulphuric acid forming zinc sulphate dissolved in solution and releasing hydrogen gas.
Zn + conc. 2 H2SO4 ZnSO4 + SO2 + 2 H2O
Materials show varying behaviors based on their Poisson's ratio. High Poisson's ratio materials (near 0.5) contract significantly sideways when stretched and expand when compressed, seen in substances like rubber. Low Poisson's ratio materials (near 0) undergo minimal width change during axial deformation, typical of metals and common engineering materials.
