Why do nonpolar compounds tend to have lower melting points and boiling points than polar compounds?

A. Polar molecules have ionic bonds between them.

B. Polar molecules have metallic bonding.

C. Nonpolar molecules have weaker covalent bonds within them.

D. Nonpolar molecules only have Van der Waals forces between them.

C

Explanation: Polar molecules differ from nonpolar molecules by having positive and negative ends and stronger intermolecular forces of attraction Nonpolar molecules have only weak attractive forces for each other, so nonpolar substances tend to have low melting points and boiling points

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day

the minimum amperage that the current in this wire would have to have so that its weight is completely supported by the magnetic force due to earth's field, assuming that no other forces except gravity act on it
