Help?!?! Compare and contrast ionic and covalent compounds

1 answer:

7 0

Onic compounds are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions, which result in higher melting points and electrical conductivity compared to covalent compounds. Covalent compounds havebonds where electrons are shared between atoms.

Butyl butyrate is an ester that is a naturally occurring oil used in the flavor industry for its fruity scent. If the steam dist

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is 62.5 %.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the partial pressure of butyl butyrate is 50 mmHg and the partial pressure of water is 710 mmHg.

Hence, the total pressure is 710+50 = 760 mmHg

According to Dalton's law of partial pressure,

Partial pressure = mole fraction * total pressure

Mole fraction of water is,

Partial pressure of water/Total pressure = 710/760 = 0.93

Similarly, the mole fraction of butyl butyrate is,

Partial pressure of butyl-butyrate/Total pressure = 50/760 = 0.07

Therefore, mole% of water is 0.93 * 100 = 93 %

For calculating mass%,

Mass of H2O = 0.93 * 18 = 16.8 grams (The molecular mass of water is 18 grams per mole)

The molecular mass of butyl-butyrate is 144 gram per mole

The mass of butyl-butyrate = 144 * 0.07 = 10.08 grams

The mass percent of water will be,

Mass % of water/Total mass % * 100 = 16.8 / 10.08 + 16.8 * 100 = 62.5%.

The element iodine would be expected to form covalent bond(s) in order to obey the octet rule. Use the octet rule to predict the

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

HI (hydrogen iodide).

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since iodine is in group VIIA, it has seven valence electrons at its outer shell, which means that it only needs one bond to attain the octet. Moreover, since hydrogen has just one electron at its outer shell, one hydrogen turns out enough to obey the octet when hydrogen and iodine bond as shown below:

$H-I$

Therefore, the required formula is:

$HI$

Which is hydrogen iodide.

Best regards.

Using the balanced equation N2+O2=2NO, how many grams of NO can be produced when 25.0 grams of N react?

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$53.55gNO$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical reaction, it is possible for us to calculate the produced grams of nitrogen monoxide by starting with 25.0 g of nitrogen via their 1:2 mole ratio and the molar masses of 30.1 g/mol and 28.02 g/mol, respectively and by some stoichiometry:

$=25.0gN_2*\frac{1molN_2}{28.02gN_2}*\frac{2molNO}{1molN_2}*\frac{30.01 gNO}{1molNO}\\\\=53.55gNO$

Best regards!

A salt crystal has a mass 0.14mg,How many NaCl formula units does it contain?

klemol [59]

To determine the number of formula units in a sample of a compound you need to divide the number of grams by the formula mass. The formula mass of NaCl is 23 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 58.5 g/mol, and the number of grams of the sample is 0.14 mg * 1 g/ 1000 mg = 0.00014 g. Then the answer is 0.00014 g / 58.5 g = 2.30 * 10^ -6, which rounded to two significant figures is 2.4 * 10^ -6. So the answer is 2.4 * 10^-6 or 0.0000024

An object has a mass of 20 g and displaces a volume of 5 mL. What is the object's density?

lara [203]

Hey There!:

The density is the quotient between the mass of a material and the volume occupied by it, The density can be expressed for a substance or for a mixture of substances. For example, water density in ambient conditions is equal to 1.00 g/cm3, which means that in 1 cm³ or 1 mL, there are 1.0 g of water. Therefore:

D = m / V

D = 20 g / 5 mL

D = 4,0 g/mL

hope that helps!
