The polarity of a bond depends on the difference in electronegativities of the atoms involved in bonding. Greater this difference, greater is the polarity

1) In SCl2 we have the S-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: S = 2.5, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.5 = 0.5

2) In F2 we have the F-F bond

Electronegativity value: F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0-4.0 = 0

3) In CS2 we have the C-S bond

Electronegativity value: C = 2.5, S = 2.5

Difference = 2.5 -2.5 = 0

4) In CF4 we have the C-F bond

Electronegativity values: C = 2.5, F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0 -2.5 = 1.5

5) In BrCl we have the Br-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: Br = 2.8, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.8 = 0.2

Therefore, the increasing order of polarity is

F2 = CS2 < BrCl < SCl2 < CF4

vladimir1956 [14]
I would imagine they’d be equal.
F = ma
We can treat mass and force as constants because they do not change throughout both systems and they are the same on both systems. That would mean the acceleration would be the same for both systems.

An explanation of this could be the two forces are acting in different directions, so one is positively accelerating the object and the other is negatively accelerating it

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

This type of experiment was carried out in 1960s on rodents, it was partially successful but was perceived impractical and dangerous for humans,it is possible theoretically.

Oxygen is broken down or dissolves in a thin film of fluid in the alveoli, surprisingly in normal breathing liquid composed of dissolved oxygen is involved. Evidently respiratory gas must be able to dissolve in this liquid and in concentration required to keep the partial pressure necessary to power diffusion.

A certain ionic compound X has a solubility in water of 40.3 g/L at 20. degrees C. Calculate the mass X of required to prepare 5
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

20.1 g

Explanation:

The solubility indicates how much of the solute the solvent can dissolve. A solution is saturated when the solvent dissolved the maximum that it can do, so, if more solute is added, it will precipitate. The solubility varies with the temperature. Generally, it increases when the temperature increases.

So, if the solubility is 40.3 g/L, and the volume is 500 mL = 0.5 L, the mass of the solute is:

40.3 g/L = m/V

40.3 g/L = m/0.5L

m = 40.3 g/L * 0.5L

m = 20.1 g
