Polarity is the chemical property based on the electric charge and orientation of the poles. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity. Thus, option d is correct.

<h3>What is polarity?</h3>

Polarity is a chemical property of the distribution of the electrical charges over their respective atom in the molecule joined by the bonds. The relation between the polarity and the difference in electronegativity is directly proportional.

The electronegativity difference between the elements are:

Al−O = 1.8
H−Br = 0.8
As−S = 0.4

As the electronegativity difference between Al−O = 1.8 is the highest it will have the highest polarity followed by H−Br = 0.8, and As−S = 0.4, with the lowest polarity.

Therefore, option D. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity.

At a given temperature the vapor pressures of hexane and octane are 183 mmhg and 59.2 mmhg, respectively. Calculate the total va

Bas_tet [7]

Total vapor pressure can be calculated using partial vapor pressures and mole fraction as follows:

$P=X_{A}P_{A}+X_{B}P_{B}$

Here, $X_{A}$ is mole fraction of A, $X_{B}$ is mole fraction of B, $P_{A}$ is partial pressure of A and $P_{B}$ is partial pressure of B.

The mole fraction of A and B are related to each other as follows:

$X_{A}+X_{B}=1$

In this problem, A is hexane and B is octane, mole fraction of hexane is given 0.580 thus, mole fraction of octane can be calculated as follows:

$X_{octane}=1-X_{hexane}=1-0.58=0.42$

Partial pressure of hexane and octane is given 183 mmHg and 59.2 mmHg respectively.

Now, vapor pressure can be calculated as follows:

$P=X_{hexane}P_{hexane}+X_{octane}P_{octane}$

Putting the values,

$P=(0.580)(183 mmHg)+(0.420)(59.2 mmHg)=131 mmHg$

Therefore, total vapor pressure over the solution of hexane and octane is 131 mmHg.
