The correct order of increasing dipole moment is BCl3 < BIF2 < BClF2.

What is dipole moment?

The mathematical product of the separation of the ends of a dipole and the magnitude of the charges.
More is the electronegativity of an atom more it will have pull of electrons towards itself. For example, in BCl3 electrons will be pulled towards chlorine atom as it is more electronegative than boron.Hence, the dipole moment is cancelled out. So, it will have zero dipole moment.
In BIF2 and BClF2 , fluorine is more electronegative in nature and it is present in both the molecules.
But chlorine is more electronegative that iodine atom. So, the dipole moment of BClF2 is more than the dipole moment of BIF2.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

0.2 moles, assuming weight of dried salt

Explanation:

In order to determine the number of moles, we need to be aware of the mass of the substance in question.

Assuming the mass of the dehydrated $KAl(SO_{4} )_{2}.H_{2} O$ is 50g.

No. of moles = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance.

= $\frac{50g}{39+27+32*2+16*4*2\\)g/mol}$

= 0.2 moles moles.

An ideal diatomic gas starting at room temperature T1 = 300 K and atmospheric pressure p1 = 1.0 atm is compressed adiabatically

tangare [24]

Answer:

The final temperature of the given ideal diatomic gas: T₂ = 753.6 K

Explanation:

Given: Atmospheric pressure: P = 1.0 atm

Initial Volume: V₁ , Final Volume: V₂ = V₁ (1/10)

⇒ V₁ / V₂ = 10

Initial Temperature: T₁ = 300 K, Final temperature: T₂ = ? K

For a diatomic ideal gas: γ = 7/5

For an adiabatic process:

$V^{\gamma-1 }T = constant$

$V_{1}^{\gamma-1 }T_{1} = V_{2}^{\gamma-1 }T_{2}$

$\left [\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right ]^{\gamma-1 } = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

$\left [10 \right ]^{\frac{7}{5}-1 } = \frac{T_{2}}{300 K}$

$\left [10 \right ]^{\frac{2}{5} } = \frac{T_{2}}{300 K}$

$2.512 = \frac{T_{2}}{300 K}$

$T_{2} = 753.6 K$

Therefore, the final temperature of the given ideal diatomic gas: T₂ = 753.6 K

Complete the following paragraph to describe how the electrostatic forces in salt compounds can be overcome by interactions betw

motikmotik

Answer:

The words are: (2) ionic bonds; (3) ion-dipole forces; (4) soluble; (8) higher

Explanation:

-Salts are composed of ions that form a tightly packed and ordered network, which is called a crystal lattice, and it is held together by ionic bonds.

Explanation: salts are ionic compounds, which are composed by oppositely charged ions (cations and anions) which are bonded each other by ionic bonds, in an ordered arrangement, often a crystalline solid.

-When a salt is added to a polar solvent like water, the ions interact with the solvent molecules via ion-dipole forces, which overcome the forces originally holding the ions together.

Explanation: the molecules of a polar solvent are dipoles because they have dipolar momentum (a difference in charge due to a electronegativiy difference). When a salt is dissolved in a polar solvent, it dissociates in ions. So, the resulting interactions between these species are ion-dipole forces.

-The ions are then isolated and stabilized in solution via these interactions, and when this occurs for most of the salt compound, it is considered soluble in that solvent.

Explanation: the ions in solution are surrounded by solvent molecules which stabilizes them. A salt which is enterely dissolved in a solvent is soluble in that solvent.

-Due to the nature of the interaction between ions and solvent molecules, a concentration of ions can be dissolved higher in water than in alcohol.

Explanation: water molecules have unique properties that make water an universal solvent. Due to these properties and its polarity, water can dissolve larger quantities of salt than other polar solvents such as alcohol.
