The high surface tension helps the paper clip - with much higher density - float on the water. The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules.
Basically it means that there is a sort of skin on the surface of water where the water molecules hold on tight together. If the conditions are right, they can hold tight enough to support your paper clip. The paperclip is not truly floating, it is being held up by the surface tension.
A covalent bond? Not sure how much detail you want, sorry
Answer:
PART A
Explanation:
3. A cylinder of compressed gas has a pressure of 4.882 atm on one day. The next
day, the same cylinder of gas has a pressure of 4.690 atm, and its temperature is
8°C. What was the temperature on the previous day in °C? Ans: 20°C.
double-displacement reaction
Explanation:
We have the chemical reaction:
Na₂S (aq) + Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) → CdS (s) + 2 NaNO₃ (aq)
where:
(aq) - aqueous
(s) - solid
This is a double-displacement reaction because the reactants exchange atoms or group of atoms between themselves to form the products. To drive the reaction to the right, one of the products is a precipitate.
Generally we can express the double-displacement reaction as following:
AB + CD → AC + BD

An element is a substance that can't be broken down further. Lithium (Li) and calcium (Ca) are examples of elements.
Carbon monoxide (CO) and potassium bromide (KBr) are examples of compounds, which are made up of more than one element put together.
