1. When two atoms with different electronegativities are bonded together, a bond dipole exists. These are displayed with an arro
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

In order: LOWER, HIGHER, NEGATIVE, POSITIVE, INCREASE

Explanation:

First you must consider the definition of electronegativity.

All in all, electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself. For this explanation, let's just consider the groups 1, 2, 13-17, and the noble gases of the periodic table. Furthermore, let's also consider the octet rule. The octet rule says that the last orbit of an atom tends to have 8 electrons in order to be stable.

If you take an atom like Sodium (Na) and search its distribution of electrons by levels, you'll see these number in the last two orbits: 8.1

The penultimate orbit has 8 electrons and the last one has only 1. Therefore, in order to futfill the octet rule what do you think it's easier? Losing the last electron and leaving the 8 electrones of the penultimate orbit as last orbit? Or maybe taking 7 electrons for the last orbit and, hence, futfilling the octet? Well, the answer is the first case.

The more you move from group to group (i.e, rightwards in the periodic table), more electrons will have in their last orbit.

So, in order to respond your question: Yes you should display it like this:

A --> B

Consider A and B two random atoms, for which B's electronegativity is higher than A's. This arrow shows the tendency of the electron flow.

As electrons go to the more electronegative atom, the whole electronic ''cloud'' will tend to be closer to B, because this atom is more electronegative. Hence, there will be a partial (not fixed) negative charge on B rather than on A. This is due to B's high electronegativity. This means that the negative charge will spend more time on B rather than on A, this is what partial negative charge means.

The higher the electronegativity is, the higher the magnitudes of the partial charges --> Therefore, these partial charges are increased and sometimes it might lead to the chemical bond breakage.

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
cluponka [151]
<span>C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5</span>
