How many protons does the biggest element of the periodic table have?

For the following question, select the correct chemical formula for the elements if they were to bong together.

9966 [12]

Answer:

Ionic

Explanation:

Lithium is an alkali metal and form an ionic bond by donating an electron.

Fluorine is a halogen and forms ionic bonds by accepting an electron.

The electronegativity difference between lithium (0.98) and fluorine (3.98) is 3 Pauling units. Usually, when elements have a difference of 1.7 (or 2.0) Pauling units the bond is classified as ionic.

Hope this helps! If you have any more questions or need more explanation please leave a comment down below and I will reply ASAP. Good luck!

When determining molecular polarity, which scenario is not possible:

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: Option C is correct

A polar molecule with nonpolar bonds

Explanation:

A polar molecule with nonpolar bonds cannot be polar because a polar molecule has net dipole that it has one end slightly positive and the other end slightly negative which allows the distribution of atoms .

Therefore it cannot have non polar bonds because non polar bonds allow electrons to be shared equally and it take place between non elemental substances or substances that are not elements , it cannot occur in elemental substances because these substances have different electronegativities which can be held by polar bonds alone.

An engineer is trying to create a fast reaction in a fuel mixture. Which should she do? A. Decrease the amount of fuel B. Lower

oksano4ka [1.4K]

To increase the rate of a reaction, you can either do any of the following:
-increase the temperature
-increase concentration of the aqueous reactant
-increase pressure of the gas
-use a catalyst
-increase surface area of the solid reactant

From these, the engineer should therefore do C. Adding a catalyst speeds up the reaction without really joining the reaction.

In an extraction experiment similar to your expt. 4, you attempt to separate 2-naphthol from cyclohexane, both of which are diss

Viktor [21]

Answer:

[a]. 108 mL.

[b].

1. use HCL in washing for the neutralization of NaOH.

2. Wash with water.

3. make use of MgSO4 to remove water traces.

4. Evaporate to get the pure cyclohexane

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction between 2-naphthol and Sodium hydroxide is given below as:

C₁₀H₈O + NaOH --------------------------------------------------> C10H7O⁻ Na⁺ + H₂O.

The C10H7O⁻ Na⁺ is the aqueous phase.

The molarity of Sodium Hydroxide is = [ (mass of sodium hydroxide ) ÷ molar mass sodium hydroxide × volume] × 1000.

The molarity of sodium hydroxide = [ (5/40) × 100] × 1000 = 1.25 M.

The number of moles of 2-naphthol = mass / molar mass = 20 / 144.17 = 0.138 moles.

Recall that, the formula for the number of moles = concentration × volume. Therefore, the volume of sodium hydroxide is given below as:

Volume of sodium hydroxide = the number of moles of sodium hydroxide ÷ concentration of sodium hydroxide = 0.138 ÷ 1.25 = 0.108L = 108 mL.

In order to efficiently isolate relatively pure cyclohexane from the ether layer, the following process must be followed:

1. use HCL in washing for the neutralization of NaOH.

2. Wash with water.

3. make use of MgSO4 to remove water traces.

4. Evaporate to get the pure cyclohexane

Calcium oxide reacts with water in a combination reaction to produce calcium hydroxide: CaO (s) + H2O (l) â†’ Ca(OH)2 (s) In a p

dybincka [34]

Answer:

The option closest to the percentage yield is option;

d. 81.1

Explanation:

The given chemical equation of the reaction is presented as follows;

CaO (s) + H₂O (l) → Ca(OH)₂

The mass of CaO in the experiment, m = 2.00 g

The volume of water with which the CaO was reacted = Excess volume of water

Number of moles = Mass/(Molar mass)

The mass of Ca(OH)₂ recovered, actual yield = 2.14 g

The molar mass of CaO = 56.0774 g/mol

The number of moles of CaO in the reaction, n₁ = 2.00 g/(56.0774 g/mol ≈ 0.036 moles

The molar mass of Ca(OH)₂ = 74.093 g/mol

The number of moles of Ca(OH)₂ in the reaction, n₂ = 2.14 g/(74.093 g/mol) ≈ 0.029 moles

From the given chemical reaction, one mole of CaO reacts with one mole of H₂O to produce one mole of Ca(OH)₂

Therefore, 0.036 moles of CaO will produce 0.036 moles of Ca(OH)₂

Mass = Number of moles × Molar mass

The mass of 0.036 moles of Ca(OH)₂ ≈ 0.036 moles × 74.093 g/mol = 2.667348 grams

∴ The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂ = 2.667348 grams

$Percentage \ yield = \dfrac{Actual \ yield}{Theoretical \ yield} \times 100 \%$

The percentage yield = (2.14 g)/(2.667348 grams) × 100 = 80.23%

Therefore, the option which is closest is option d. 81.1.
