Q:

What name is given to the bond between water molecules?

A) Polar B) Polar covalent
C) Hydrogen D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Hydrogen

Explanation:

The name given to the bond between water molecules is a hydrogen bond. These bonds occur between the slightly negative oxygen of one water molecule and the slightly positive hydrogen of another water molecule. Hydrogen bonding gives water special physical properties.

 

The differences in electronegativity between hydrogen and oxygen lead to an unequal sharing of electrons. Electronegativity measures how strongly an atom attracts electrons. Oxygen, with its higher electronegativity, pulls on the shared electrons more, giving the oxygen atom a partial net negative charge. The shared electrons spend less time with the hydrogen atoms; therefore, the hydrogen regions of water have partial positive charges.

Q:

What is a zombie?

Answer

When a program forks and the child finishes before the parent, the kernel still keeps some of its information about the child in case the parent might need it – for example, the parent may need to check the child’s exit status. To be able to get this information, the parent calls `wait()’; In the interval between the child terminating and the parent calling `wait()’, the child is said to be a `zombie’ (If you do `ps’, the child will have a `Z’ in its status field to indicate this.)
