A stream of a polar liquid (such as water) will be attracted to a charged rod, while a similar stream of a non-polar liquid will not be attracted. Hexane has a stronger bond than all the polar bond because the structure of it is much more link for example of (Pentane, Butane, Propane, Ethane, Methane)

Why do chloride ions move towards the positive electrode?

Chloride ions are negatively charged and are attracted to the positively charged electrode due to electrostatic forces. This attraction causes the chloride ions to move towards the positive electrode during electrolysis.


How can we cause the ions in a solution to move towards a specific direction?

Applying an electric field using electrodes can cause the ions to move towards a specific direction through a process known as electrophoresis. By setting up a voltage gradient, positively charged ions will move towards the negative electrode, while negatively charged ions will migrate towards the positive electrode.


Will beta particles bend towards the north or south pole of a magnet?

That's going to depend on which pole of the magnet is sticking out towards the beta stream (there are two choices), and also on the direction in which the electrons are flowing past the magnet (there are two choices).


An electrically neutral object can be attracted by a positively charged object because?

A neutral pith ball is still "charged", it just doesn't display excessively charged behavior. Since it is neutral, having nearly equal positive and negative charge, the proximity of the positively charged pith ball still attracts the negative charge present in the ball, inducing polarization moving the ball closer to the positively charged one. Once they make contact, the conductibility of the pith ball quickly accepts excess charge from the other, creating a like charge repulsion.


How do ions contribute to the conduction of electricity?

Ions are charged particles that can move within a substance. In a solution or a molten state, ions can carry electric current by moving towards oppositely charged electrodes. This movement of ions allows for the flow of electricity through the substance.

How do negatively charged plates affect the path of cathode rays?

Negatively charged plates will attract cathode rays, causing them to bend or deflect towards the plates. The extent of the bending will depend on the strength of the electric field between the plates and the voltage applied across them.


Is plastic ruler gets attracted towards pieces of paper when rubbed with oily hair?

Yes, when a plastic ruler is rubbed with oily hair, it can become statically charged. This static charge may attract lightweight objects like pieces of paper due to the electrostatic force between the ruler and the paper.


Why does a charged glass rod attract charged plastic straw?

it is becuase when a glas rod charged by rubbing a cloth it aquires positive charge and when a plastic straw is charged by rubbing a cloth it aquires negative charge. Therefore a charged glass rod attracts a charged plastic rod.


What will happen to the positively charged balloon ad a soft drink can?

The positively charged balloon and a soft drink can will pull negatively charged objects towards them


Why do certain dyes migrate toward the cathode and others towards the anode?

Molecules migrate to different electrodes depending on the charge they carry. Positively charged dyes migrate toward the anode (the negative electrode) and negatively charged dyes migrate toward the cathode (the positive electrode)


How do you get a girl to like you when she doesn't like you in the first place?

Show her that you are a friendly person worth the time to hang out with. If she is haughty or mean towards you, just deflect and defuse it with simple neutrality. Once she is warmer towards you, trying starting a small conversation with her, and build towards a real friendship.

Why electron does not fall in one of the charged plate of opposite polarity when moving inside electric field?

An electron, being negatively charged, will move towards positively charged plates.


When cathode rays are passed through a magnetic field which pole do they deflect towards north or south and why?

Cathode rays are electron beams. When they are moving in a magnetic field, they are deviated. The direction of their deflection is given by Fleming's left hand rule. The direction of deflection, current (which is the reverse of the direction of the electron beams) and field are all perpendicular to each other. Hence, the electron beam will deviate in a direction contained in a plane which is perpendicular to both the field and the electron beam. Hence, the cathode rays are neither defleted to the north nor south pole.

How does static electricity bend water with a dry plastic comb?

Static electricity produced by rubbing the comb on dry hair creates a charge imbalance that attracts the water molecules in the stream of water. The water molecules are polar, so they are attracted to the charged comb and will align themselves with the electrostatic field, causing the water stream to bend towards the charged comb.


Is it true that a Beta particles when passed through a pair of electrically charged plates will be deflected towards the positively charged plate.?

Yes, beta particles, which are high-speed electrons, will be deflected towards the positively charged plate when passing through a pair of electrically charged plates due to their negative charge and the force exerted by the electric field. This deflection occurs because of the interaction between the electric field and the charged particle.
