When oxygen has an electronegativity of 3.5, and carbon has an electronegativity of 2.5, then the oxygen atom would have a slightly negative charge. The oxygen atom in  the carbon monoxide molecule would pull more electrons to its side since it has higher electronegativity making it slightly negative and the carbon would have a slightly positive charge as it would contain less electrons. This results to the formation of a polar molecule. A polar molecule is made when the molecule contains a slightly positive end and a slightly negative end. It would have a net dipole which is a result of the partial opposing charges in the molecule.

What is the pressure of a sample of gas at a volume of .335 L if it occupies 1700 mL at 850 mm Hg?
dangina [55]

Answer:

Pressure = 4313.43mmHg

Explanation:

P1 = ?

V1 = 0.335L

V2 = 1700mL =1700*10^-3L = 1.7L

P2 = 850mmhg

From Boyle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure provided that temperature remains constant.

P = k / v

K = pv. P1V1 = P2V2 = P3V3 =........=PnVn

P1V1 = P2V2

Solve for P1,

P1 = (P2*V2) / V1

P1 = (850 * 1.7) / 0.335

P1 = 4313.43mmHg

The pressure of the gas was 4313.43mmHg

A sample of an ionic compound containing iron and chlorine is analyzed and found to have a molar mass of 126.8 g/mol. what is th
julsineya [31]
Answer is: <span>the charge of the iron in this compound is +2.
Atomic mass of iron is 55,8 g/mol.
Atomic mass of chlorine is 35,5 g/mol.
If compound is FeCl, molar mass would be 55,8 </span>g/mol + 35,5 g/mol = 91,3 g/mo, that is not correct.
If compound is FeCl₂, malar mass of compound would be:
55,8 g/mol + 2·35,5 g/mol = 126,8 g/mol, that is correct.
Oxaidation number of chlorine is -1.
