What is a result of the unequal electron sharing in a water molecule?

Chemistry

alina1380 [7]4 years ago

Answer:

The right choice is c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

Explanation:

The unequal sharing of electrons in water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom ( see image below) and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms. A neutral molecule that has a partial positive charge at one end and a partial negative charge at the other, it is a polar molecule.

a. Water molecules have a nonpolar bond.

It is wrong choice because water has polar bond .

b. Water molecules have a weakly positive oxygen end.

Also, a wrong choice due to water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom.

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

This is the right choice.

d. Water molecules have two oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

It is wrong choice because water has one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

So, the right choice is

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

Covert to scientific notation.

Answer:

19) 3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

20) 4.059× 10²

21) 2.46810121416 × 10³

22) 1.0000× 10⁻³

Explanation:

Scientific notation is the way to express the large value in short form.

The number in scientific notation have two parts.

The digits (decimal point will place after first digit)

× 10 ( the power which put the decimal point where it should be)

For example:

0.000036920

In scientific notation = 3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

405.9

In scientific notation = 4.059× 10²

2468.10121416

In scientific notation = 2.46810121416 × 10³

0.0010000

In scientific notation = 1.0000× 10⁻³

<u>Answer:</u> The $K_{sp}$ for calcium hydroxide is $5.324\times 10^{-6}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $HCl$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is $Ca(OH)_2$

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=0.0983M\\V_1=11.22mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=?M\\V_2=50mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times 0.0983\times 11.22=2\times M_2\times 50\\\\M_2=0.011M$

The concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$ comes out to be 0.011 M.

The balanced equilibrium reaction for the ionization of calcium hydroxide follows:

$Ca(OH)_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2OH^-$

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction follows:

$K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^-]^2$

Putting the values in above equation, we get:

$K_{sp}=(0.011)\times (2\times 0.11)^2$

$K_{sp}=5.324\times 10^{-6}$

Hence, the $K_{sp}$ for calcium hydroxide is $5.324\times 10^{-6}$

Answer: Extinction

Animals on the verge of extinction are considered endangered species. Some could argue that the phrasing "threatened" is synonymous to "endangered". Some classify extinction based on if the species is completely wiped out in the wild, or if the species is completely gone (both in the wild and in zoos for instance). Extinction events are not solely due to the changes in atmosphere, but also due to lack of food or habitat, among other possible factors.
