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

Why does perchloric acid cause macromolecules to precipitate?
asambeis [7]
Perchloric acid (HCO₄) is one of strongest inorganic acids. Perchloric acid  precipitation is used to removes most of the protein present in the sample and stabilize many of the small molecule analytes. It can use also to precipitation glycogen, ATP, glutathione, antioxidants.
Perchloric acid donates protons to macromolecules and lower their solubility in water. Also perchloric acid is strong oxidizing agent and change oxidation number of elements.

Adding heat to an exothermic reaction will have what effect? Reactants ↔ products + heat View Available Hint(s) Adding heat to a
Alina [70]

Answer:

Causes the equilibrium to shift to the left, in favor of making more reactants, and K decreases.

Explanation:

Le Châtelier's principle states that if there is a stress in equilibrium, the reaction will shift to restore the equilibrium. An exothermic reaction loses heat for the surroundings, so the equilibrium must be represented as:

Reactants ⇔ Products + Heat

Then, when more heat is added, to restore the equilibrium, the reaction shift to the left ("consuming" heat), in favor of making more reactants.

The equilibrium constant (K) is:

K = [Products]/[Reactants]

So, [Reactants] will increase, and K must decrease.
