What is the chemical formula for hydraulic acid?

Based on the naming rules for acids. This would be just hydrogen and carbon. H2C or H4C. BUT.. I do not know if this exists in nature, since carbon tends to form covalent bonds with hydrogen, not ionic. CH4 is methane, and CH2 is acetylene.


What is an ionic compounds found in human body?

Provide one important example (in the human body) of a. a molecule containing ionic bonds. b. a molecule containing covalent bonds. c. a molecule containing hydrogen bonds.


Is water vapor is a liquid?

Because of the strong hydrogen bonds that exists in water it's non volatile.The hydrogen bond perform between hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms.


How does water behave at its surface and the role hydrogen bonding plays in this behavior?

In any pure liquid, the molecules within a few molecular diameters of the surface of the interface of the pure liquid with some other fluid have more average kinetic energy than do those molecules of the pure liquid that are deep within the liquid volume. This phenomenon, often called "surface tension", arises because the attractive forces between molecules that cause a gas to condense into a liquid can not be as strong in molecules at the interface, since a molecule at the interface is in contact with only half as many other molecules of the liquid as are the molecules within its interior. This effect is particularly strong in water because of its extensive "hydrogen bonding" in liquid phase. The average cohesive energy from hydrogen bonding in water is considerably greater than the average energy of the van der Waals forces that cause most liquids to cohere, so that water has one of the highest quantitative surface tensions known.

How does hydrogen keep an airship afloat?

Hydrogen is lighter than air, making it buoyant, because air is a fluid. It works on the same principle as floating wood.

Why would it be misleading to call Jupiter a gas giant?

Even though the elements that make up Jupiter (hydrogen and helium) are gases on earth, the pressure inside Jupiter is so great that it squashes them. At this pressure and temperature, hydrogen cannot exist as a gas or a liquid. It forms what is called a "supercritical fluid." Because of this, some say "fluid planet" would be a better term.

How much hydrogen is there in a glass of water?

It depends on the size of the glass of water. There is 1 gram of hydrogen in every 9 milliliters (.3 fluid ounces) of water.
