When hydrogen is attached to the more highly electronegative oxygen atom in a water molecule?

1 answer:

6 0

Here is the full question with choices: When hydrogen is attached to the more highly electronegative oxygen atom in a water molecule, __________.?

A. the hydrogen atom becomes partially positive

B. the electronegative atom becomes strongly positive

C. the hydrogen atom becomes partially negative

D. the oxygen atom becomes partially negative

The answers are A and D. The oxygen holds onto the electrons more of the time so is slightly negative, making H slightly positive and thus making a polar covalent bond.

First, let's start off by finding the mass of this whole hydrate.
(Note: the unit of measurement for mass will be amu)

Let's find the molecular mass of each element.
$Co=58.933$
$Cl=35.45$
$H=1.008$
$O=15.999$

Now, let's find the mass of each compound.

$CoCl_2=58.933+2(35.45)=129.833$
$H_2O=2(1.008)+15.999=18.015$

We have 6 molecules of H2O, so multiply 18.015 by 6 then add that with the weight of CoCl2.

$6(18.015)=108.09$
$129.833+108.09=237.923$

Now divide 108.09 (mass of all the H2O in the hydrate) by 237.923 (total mass of hydrate).

$\dfrac{108.09}{237.923}$

$\approx0.45431$

Turn that into a percentage and you get 45.431%.
Hope this helps! :)

Use the definition of molarity to calculate the concentration of 12.34 g of CaSO4 completely dissolved in water, with a solution

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

[CaSO₄] = 36.26×10⁻² mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity (M) → mol/L → moles of solute in 1L of solution

Let's convert the volume from mL to L

250 mL . 1L/1000 mL = 0.250L

We need to determine the moles of solute. (mass / molar mass)

12.34 g / 136.13 g/mol = 0.0906 mol

M → 0.0906 mol / 0.250L = 36.26×10⁻² mol/L

The psychoactive drug sold as a methamphetamine - "speed" (c10h15n) - undergoes a series of reactions in the body; the net resul

Phoenix [80]

Answer: The coefficient of nitrogen in the given equation is 2.

Explanation: The reaction for the oxidation of methamphentamine with oxygen gas in the body is given by:

$4C_{10}H_{15}N(s)+55O_2(g)\rightarrow 40CO_2(g)+30H_2O(l)+2N_2(g)$

By Stoichiometry,

4 moles of methamphentamine reacts with 55 moles of oxygen gas to produce 40 moles of carbon dioxide gas, 30 moles of water and 2 moles of nitrogen gas.

Coefficient of $C_{10}H_{15}N=4$

Coefficient of $O_2=55$

Coefficient of $CO_2=40$

Coefficient of $H_2O=30$

Coefficient of $N_2=2$

Hence, the coefficient of nitrogen in the given equation is 2.
