Answer:
0.0905 M
Explanation:
Let's consider the neutralization reaction between H2SO4 and KOH.
H₂SO₄ + 2 KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2 H₂O
22.87 mL of 0.158 M KOH react. The reacting moles of KOH are:
0.02287 L × 0.158 mol/L = 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol
The molar ratio of H₂SO₄ to KOH is 1:2. The reacting moles of H₂SO₄ are 1/2 × 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol
1.81 × 10⁻³ moles of H₂SO₄ are in 20.0 mL. The molarity of H₂SO₄ is:
M = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol / 0.0200 L = 0.0905 M
Answer: The bond between boron and hydrogen in boron trihydride is covalent bond.
Explanation:
The type of bonding between the atoms forming a compound is determined by using the electronegativity difference between the atoms. According to the pauling's electronegativity rule:
- If
, then the bond is non-polar. - If
, then the bond will be covalent. - If
, then the bond will be ionic.
We are given:
Electronegativity for boron = 2.0
Electronegativity for hydrogen = 2.1
As, 
is less than 1.7 and not equal to 0. Hence, the bond between boron and hydrogen is covalent bond.
The branch of chemistry that the chemist might use will be the branch of <em>organic chemistry</em>. This is because gasoline is an organic compound. We can say that a compound is organic if it contains a carbon atom. Gasoline is composed of long chains of alkanes (hydrocarbons with single bonds) ranging from 4 carbon atoms to 12 carbon atoms.
