How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?
AnnZ [28]

The answers to the questions are as follows;

  1. It would gain three electrons
  2. The difference in their electronegativities.
  3. The elements have filled Valence levels
  4. potassium (K) with a 1+ charge
  5. ClO-

Question 1:

  • How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?

Since Nitrogen has 5 Valence electrons, it needs 3 electrons to attain it's octet configuration. As such, it gains 3 electrons.

Question 2:

  • Which quantity determines how two atoms bond.

The quantity which determines how two atoms bond is The difference in their electronegativities.

Question 3:

  • Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values.

This is because the elements have filled Valence levels.

Question 4:

  • Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration

The ion which has a stable Valence electron configuration is potassium (K) with a 1+ charge

Question 5;

  • Which chemical formula represents a polyatomic ion?

The chemical formula which represents a polyatomic ion is; ClO-

1. Why do you think pepper behaved the way it did in this experiment? What do you think that sugar and salt would do?
goblinko [34]

The experiment is related to the demonstration using Pepper. When pepper is spread over water, it clumps together This is because pepper is hydrophobic. When repeated with sugar and salt, they instantly dissolved. This means they are attracted to water. When also sprinkled on the surface of the water, it floats. This is caused by surface tension.

To break the surface tension of water, one can use aeration or the use of chemicals such as soap molecules which contain a long chain of hydrogen as well as carbon atoms.

<h3>What is surface tension?</h3>

Surface tension is the propensity of liquid surfaces at rest to shrink to the smallest feasible surface area. Surface tension permits items with a higher density than water, such as razor blades and insects (such as water striders), to float on the water's surface without being immersed.

A force tensiometer can be used to measure surface tension. The forces exerted on a probe situated at the liquid-gas or liquid-liquid interface are measured by these devices.

When a kettle is placed on the stove and water begins to boil, the hotter water at the bottom begins to rise and the
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The cooler water is denser

Explanation:

Convection drives the boiling of water placed on a stove in a kettle.

During convection, heat is circulated by density differences in portions of a fluid.

Convection is a form of heat transfer in fluids especially gas and liquid.

  • In boiling water, the heat is supplied to the base of the stove.
  • The water at the bottom on heat becomes lighter as the molecules gain more kinetic energy.
  • The colder part of the water on top sinks to replace the less dense on below.
  • This exchange sets up convection cells in the kettle.

Certain hydrocarbon is 92.3 % carbon and 7.7 % hydrogen by mass.If the molar mass of the hydrocarbon is approximately 40 g/mol,
zimovet [89]

Answer:

The hydrocarbon has a molecular formula of C3H3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Suppose the mass of the compound is 100 grams

A hydrocarbon contains:

 ⇒ 92.3 % carbon = 92.3 grams

 ⇒ 7.7 % hydrogen = 7.7 grams

Molar mass of the compound is 40 g/mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.01 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles carbon = 92.3 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles carbon = 7.69 moles

Moles hydrogen = 7.70 grams / 1.01 g/mol

Moles hydrogen = 7.62

Step 3: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

Carbon: 7.69/7.62 = 1

Hydrogen: 7.62/7.62 = 1

The empirical formula is CH

The molar mass is 13.02 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate the molecular formula

n = 40 g/mol / 13.02 g/mol

n ≈ 3

We need to multiply the empirical formula by 3 to get the molecular formula

Molecular formula = 3*(CH) = C3H3

The hydrocarbon is C3H3
