For single bonds between similar types of atoms, how does the strength of the bond relate to the sizes of the atoms? Explain.

When comparing single bonds between atoms of comparable types, the stronger the bond is, the bigger the atom, the weaker it is.

The length of the X-H bond lengthens while the strength of the bond shortens with increasing halogen size (F-H strongest, I-H weakest). When comparing single bonds between atoms of similar sorts, the larger the atom, the weaker the bond. It can be explained by the fact that less energy is required to break the bond the bigger the atom's atomic size. The force of attraction from the nucleus to the outermost orbit will be less for iodine since it has a larger atom than the other elements in the group.

Two solids of identical mass, A and B, are analyzed using identical calorimeters. Each calorimeter contains the same amount of w

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Specific heat of solid A is greater than specific heat of solid B.

Explanation:

In the calorimeter, as the temperature is increasing, the vibrational kinetic energy will increase and this means that additional amount of energy will be needed to increase the temperature by the same value. Therefore, we can conclude that specific heat increases as temperature increases.

Now, we are told that the final temperature of solid A's calorimeter is higher than that of B.

This means from our definition earlier, Solid A will have a higher specific heat that solid B.

What is the vapor pressure of CS2CS2 in mmHgmmHg at 26.5 ∘C∘C? Carbon disulfide, CS2CS2, has PvapPvap = 100 mmHgmmHg at −−5.1 ∘C

Digiron [165]

Answer: 26.5 mm Hg

Explanation:

The vapor pressure is determined by Clausius Clapeyron equation:

$ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})$
