discuss how variations in electronegativity result in the unequal sharing of electrons in polar molecules.

1 answer:

6 0

Variations in electronegativity prompt in the unequal halves of electrons in polar molecules because when one atom is more electronegative than the other, it becomes more polar than the other.

It results in the more electronegative atom to have a slightly negative (-ve) charges, and the other atom to have partial or slightly positive(+ve) charges.

Polar molecules have unequal sharing of electrons because the atoms have unequal attraction for electrons so the sharing is unequal.

The larger the difference in electronegativity between the two atoms, the more the polar the bond.

Hydrogen bonds are involved in unequal sharing of electrons between two atoms.

Identify each section of the periodic table. metals nonmetals metalloids

Len [333]

Answer:

i added this table for some help

Explanation:

here are some examples

metals:They are hard and shiny, strong, and easy to shape. They are used for many industrial purposes. This group includes iron, gold, silver, chromium, nickel, and copper, some of which are also noble metals.

non-metals:a chemical element (as boron, carbon, or nitrogen) that lacks the characteristics of a metal and that is able to form anions, acidic oxides, acids, and stable compounds with hydrogen.

metalloids:Physical properties are usually those that can be observed using our senses such as color, luster, freezing point, boiling point, melting point, density, hardness and odor. Metalloids have mixed properties which are difficult to characterize.

Butane (C4H10) is used as a fuel where natural gas is not available. How many grams of butane will fill a 3.50-liter container a

erik [133]

We use the formula PV = nRT. P = 758 torr = 0.997 atm. V = 3.50 L. T = 35.6 C = 308.15 K. R = 0.0821. Rearranging the equation gives up n = PV/Rt and we get .0138 moles of butane. Mass of 0.0138 moles of butane = .0138 x 58.12 = 8.02g.
