<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Lewis acid-base concept:

The substance which is donating electron pair is considered as Lewis base and the substance which is accepting electron pair is considered as Lewis acid.

For the given chemical reaction:

CuO(s)+CO_2(g)\rightarrow CuCO_3(s)

CO_2 is accepting electron pair and is getting converted to CO_3^{2-}. Thus, it is considered as Lewis acid.

O^{2-} present in CuO is a Lewis base because it is donating electron pair.

Thus, the correct answer is Option d.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer :

The correct answer is  %IC = 10 % and bond is  covalent  bond with slight polarity.

<u>Percent Ionic Character :</u>

It is defined as percent of ionic character present in a  polar covalent bond . The formula   of % ionic character (%IC) is given as follows :

Percent Ionic character = 1 - e^-^0^.^2^5 ^*^(^X^a^-^X^b^) * 100

Where Xa = Electronegativity of A atom   and Xb = Electronegativity of B atom

Given : Molecule is TiAl₃

Electronegativity of Ti = 2.0

Electronegativity of Al = 1.6 ( From image shared )

Plug the value  in  above formula :

Percent Ionic character = 1 - e^-^0^.^2^5 ^*^(^2^.^0^-^1^.^6^) * 100

Percent Ionic character = 1 - e^(^-^0^.^2^5 ^*^0^.^4^) * 100

Percent Ionic character = 1 - e^(^-^0^.^1^) * 100

Value of e⁻¹ = 0.90

Percent ionic character = 1 - 0.90 * 100

Percent Ionic character = 10 %

<u>Since the % IC is 10 % , which is very less comparatively , hence the bond is covalent and  very less polar .</u>

A reaction requires 22.4l of at stp. You have 32.0l of gas at 398k and 105.6 kpa. Will you have enough gas to carry out the reac
Morgarella [4.7K]
<span>Answer: FALSE:

Explanation:

A reaction requires 22.4l of at STP. You have 32.0l of gas at 398k and 105.6 kpa.

1) STP stands for standard temperature and pressure.

2) Standard temperature is 0°C or 273.15 K

3) Standard pressure is 1 atm or 1013.25 kPa

4) use the ideal gas equation for both contidions

pV = n RT

=> n * R = pV /T

at STP n * R = 1031.25 kPa * 22.4 liter / 273.15 K = 84.5

at T = 398 K, p = 105.6 kPa, and V = 3.2.0 liter:

n * R = 105.6 kPa * 32.0 liter / 398 K = 8.49

Since R is a constant (the Universal Gases Constant), it is evident that the number of moles in the 32.0 liter of gas, at T = 398 K and P = 105.6 kPa is less than the number of moles of the 22.4 liter gas at STP.

There is not enough gas to carry out the reaction.
