Ionic or covalent C2H5OH

Chemistry
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago

Answer:

Covalent  

Explanation:

A molecule of C₂H₅OH has C-C, C-H, C-O, and O-H bonds.

A bond between A and B will be ionic if the difference between their electronegativities (ΔEN) is greater than 1.6.

\begin{array}{ccc}\textbf{Bond} & \textbf{$\Delta$EN} & \textbf{Polarity}\\\text{C-C} & 2.55 - 2.55 = 0.00 & \text{Nonpolar covalent}\\\text{C-H} & 2.55 - 2.20 = 0.35 & \text{Nonpolar covalent}\\\text{C-O} & 3.44 - 2.55 = 0.89 & \text{Polar covalent}\\\text{O-H} & 3.44 - 2.20 = 1.24 & \text{Polar covalent}\\\end{array}

No bond has a large enough ΔEN to be ionic.

C₂H₅OH is a covalent molecule.

When a 3.80 g sample of magnesium nitride (MW 101g/mol) is reacted with 3.30 g of water, 3.60 g of MgO is formed. What is the pe
lianna [129]
  The  percent   yield  of  this   reaction  is  calculated  as  follows
  Mg3N2  +  3H2O  =2NH3  +  3Mgo

  calculate  the   theoretical  yield,
moles=mass/molar  mass
moles Mg3N2=  3.82  g/100g/mol=  0.0382  moles(limiting  regent)

moles of  H2o=  7.73g/18g/mol  = 0.429  moles ( in  excess_)

by  use   of  mole  ratio   between  Mg3N2  to  MgO  which  is  1:3   the    moles  of MgO =  0.0382  x3  = 0.1146  moles
mass =moles  x molar  mass

the  theoretical  mass  is therefore =  0.1146mole  x  40  g/mol  =  4.58 grams

The %  yield  =  actual  mass/theoretical  mass  x1000

=  3.60/4.584  x100=  78.5%

1. A                       
2. base                          
3. strong ones have more h30 weak ones have more OH
4. strong ones have more OH weak ones have more H30
5. <span>One of the main differences between acids and bases is that acids have a pH that is less than 7 and bases have a pH that is greater than 7. When dissolved in water, acids are substances that will cause the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) to increase. Bases, when dissolved in water, will instead cause the number of hydroxide ions (OH-) to increase.6.Idk </span>
