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

A gram of gasoline produces 45.0kj of energy when burned. gasoline has a density of 0.77/gml . how would you calculate the amoun
babymother [125]
Given that there is 48 liters of gasoline to be burned and that 45 kJ of energy is released per gram of gasoline burned, the amount of energy that the gasoline fuel produces can then be calculated, First, we convert 48 liters of gasoline to units of mass (grams) in order to use the given conversion of 45 kJ per gram of gasoline. To do this, we use the density of gasoline which is 0.77 g/mL. The following expression is then used:

48 L gasoline x 1000 mL/L x 0.77 g/mL x 45 kJ/g gasoline = 1663200 kJ

<span>The amount of energy produced by burning 48 L of gasoline was then determined to be 1663200 kJ. </span>

How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 43.6 grams of sodium hydroxide in
GaryK [48]

Answer is: 25.84  milliliters of sodium metal.

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂.

d(Na) = 0.97 g/mL; density of sodim.

m(NaOH) = 43.6 g; mass of sodium hydroxide.

n(NaOH) = m(NaOH) ÷ M(NaOH).

n(NaOH) = 43.6 g ÷ 40 g/mol.

n(NaOH) =1.09 mol; amount of sodium hydroxide.

From chemical reaction: n(NaOH) : n(Na) = 2 : 2 (1: 1).

n(Na) = 1.09 mol.

m(Na) = 1.09 mol · 23 g/mol.

m(Na) = 25.07 g; mass of sodium.

V(Na) = m(Na) ÷ d(Na).

V(Na) = 25.07 g ÷ 0.97 g/mL.

V(Na) = 25.84 mL.

A compound is analyzed and found to contain 22.10%Al, 25.40%P, and 52.50%O. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
Whitepunk [10]

Let the total mass of compound is 100g

The mass of each element will be

Al = 22.10 g

P = 25.40 g

O = 52.50 g

In order to determine the molecular formula we will calculate the molar ratio of the given elements

Atomic weight of Al : 27 g/ mol

Atomic weight of P : 3 1g /mol

Atomic weight of O : 16 g /mol

Moles of Al = mass / atomic mass = 22.10 / 27 = 0.819

Moles of P = mass / atomic mass = 25.40/ 31 = 0.819

Moles of O = mass / atomic mass = 52.50/ 16 = 3.28

Now we will divide the moles of each element with the lowest moles obtained to obtain a whole number ratio of moles of each element present

moles of Al = 0.819 / 0.819 = 1

moles of P = 0.819 / 0.819 = 1

moles of O = 3.28 / 0.819 =  4

So the empirical formula will be  : AlPO4

Which substance has a chemical formula with the same ratio of metal ions to nonmetal ions as in potassium sulfide?
pav-90 [236]
Answer=1

Potassium Sulfide= K2S (two metals, one non metal)


Sodium Oxide=Na2O (two metals. one nonmetal)

Sodium Chloride=NaCl (one metal, one nonmetal)

Magnesium Oxide=MgO (one metal, one nonmetal)

Magnesium Chloride=MgCl2 (one metal, two nonmetals)
