    CHAPTER 5 STATES OF MATTER INTERMOLECULAR FORCES Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction and repulsion between interacting particles (atoms and molecules). Attractive intermolecular forces are known as van der Waals forces. van der Waals forces include dispersion forces or London forces‚ dipole-dipole forces‚ and dipole-induced dipole forces. A particularly strong type of dipole-dipole interaction is hydrogen bonding. Dispersion Forces or London Forces Observed between non-polar molecules

    chains‚ Food Webs and the Flow of Energy in Ecosystems Introduction An ecosystem can be defined as a more or less self-contained function unit in ecology consisting of all abiotic and biotic interactions in a specific area. Flow of energy within an ecosystem is a one-way process; Photosynthesis utilizes light (solar) energy to yield chemical energy that is passed on to organisms at significantly reduced amounts at each level of nutrition. This ‘inefficiency’ in energy transfer is the principal constrain

    The teacher’s hypothesis is horribly inaccurate. First of all‚ Scenario A is the only linear function in the group consisting of A‚B‚ and C. Scenario B is a function‚ but not linear. Scenario C is not a function. Scenario A has all the criteria of a linear function. For every independent variable (aka “x” value or input) in the domain‚ there is one and only one dependent variable (aka output or “y” value) in the range. It can be written in the form “y=mx+b” where “m” and “b” are real numbers‚ “x”

    Systems of linear equations‚ or a set of equations with two or more variables‚ are an essential part of finding solutions with only limited information‚ which happens to be exactly what algebra is. As a required part of any algebra student’s life‚ it is best to understand how they work‚ not only so an acceptable grade is received‚ but also so one day the systems can be used to actually find desired information with ease. There are three main methods of defining a system of linear equations. One
