Which of the following describes carbon dioxide? O Has polar covalent bonds and is a polar molecule O Has non-polar covalent bon

OLga [1]

Answer: Option "Has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

An ionic compound is defined as the compound in which there will be transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

A non-polar covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be equal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons.

So, when a chlorine atom chemically combines with another chlorine atom then there occurs equal sharing of electrons.

Hence, molecule $Cl_{2}$ is formed which is non-polar covalent compound in nature with non-polar covalent bond.

A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond in which there will be unequal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a carbon atom has 4 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons.

To complete their octet a carbon atom needs 4 more electrons and an oxygen atom needs 2 more electrons.

And, when one carbon and two oxygen atoms chemically combine together then there occurs unequal sharing of electrons.

Hence, a polar covalent compound $CO_{2}$ is formed.

Since, oxygen is more electronegative than carbon atom. Hence, dipoles in the linear carbon dioxide molecules will cancel out each other.

Therefore, a carbon dioxide molecule is non-polar compound that has polar covalent bonds.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule, correctly describes carbon dioxide.

Cindy made tea. She started with 300 grams of water at 20 degrees Celsius. She transferred 18,000 calories to the water. What wa

Serjik [45]

Answer:

T final = 80°C

Explanation:

Q = mCpΔT

∴ Q = 18000 cal

∴ m H2O = 300 g

∴ Cp H2O (15°C) = 0.99795 cal/g.K ≅ 1 cal/g.K

∴ T1 = 20°C = 293 K

∴ T2 = ?

⇒ 18000 cal = (300 g)(1 cal/g.K)(T2 - 293 K)

⇒ (18000 cal)/(300 cal/K) = T2 - 293 K

⇒ T2 = 293 K + 60 K

⇒ T2 = 353 K (80°C)

What principle do we use in writing the formula of an ionic compound such as NaCl or MgI2? How do we know that two iodide ions a

Savatey [412]

Answer:

We know based on the charges of each ion and the fact that they must always sum to 0

Explanation:

Na only has one outer electon to give so it is always +1

Mg has two outer electrons so it always gets +2

Halogens have one "missing" electron in their outer shell so they get a -1

For NaCl (+1) + (-1) = 0

For MgI2 (+2) + 2(-1) = 0

onvert the value of Kc to a value of Kp for the following reaction: N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g) Kc = 0.50 at 400 °C.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

$K_p= 0.00016$

Explanation:

The relation between Kp and Kc is given below:

$K_p= K_c\times (RT)^{\Delta n}$

Where,

Kp is the pressure equilibrium constant

Kc is the molar equilibrium constant

R is gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvins

Δn = (No. of moles of gaseous products)-(No. of moles of gaseous reactants)

For the first equilibrium reaction:

$N_2_{(g)}+3H_2_{(g)}\rightleftharpoons2NH_3_{(g)}$

Given: Kc = 0.50

Temperature = $400^oC=[400+273]K=673K$

R = 0.082057 L atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Δn = (2)-(3+1) = -2

Thus, Kp is:

$K_p= 0.50\times (0.082057\times 673)^{-2}$

$K_p= 0.00016$
