<span>orientation in space (the bond strengths, # of H and O atoms, and arrangements of the atoms will always be the same for every water molecule)</span>

Answer:

orientation in space

Explanation:

In every water molecule there are two H atoms and one O atom. Also each water molecule has two O-H bonds, which is a polar covalent bond and has the same bond strength in every water molecule. Every water molecule has a bent shape with O being the central atom that has a lone pair of electron and two H atoms attached to it. However, the orientation of each water molecule with respect to each other in space is different.

A. Explain, in terms of particles, why NaCl(s) does not conduct electricity.
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Ionic bonds hold charged particles in solid NaCl together, such that they are unable to move or conduct electricity.

Explanation:

Consider an electric current that flows through a conductor: charge moves in a uniform direction from one end of the conductor towards the other.

Thus, there are two conditions for a substance to conduct electricity:

  • The substance shall contain charged particles, and
  • These charged particles shall be free to move across the substance.

A conductor of electricity shall meet both requirements.

Now, consider the structure of solid NaCl \rm NaCl\;(s). NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains an ocean of oppositely charged ions:

  • Positive \rm Na^{+} ions, and
  • Negative \rm Cl^{-} ions.

Ions carry charge. Thus, solid NaCl contains charged particles and satisfies the first condition.

Inside solid NaCl \rm NaCl\;(s), electrostatic attractions ("ionic bonds") between the oppositely charged ions hold these ions in rigid ionic lattices. These ions are unable to move relative to each other. As a result, they cannot flow through the solid to conduct electricity. Under solid state, NaCl is unable to satisfy the second condition.

As a side note, melting NaCl into a liquid breaks the ionic bonds and free the ions from the lattice. Liquid NaCl is a conductor of electricity.

Calculate the molar concentration of the Cl⁻ ions in 0.92 M MnCl2(aq).
scZoUnD [109]
MnCl2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Cl⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MnCl2 that dissolves.
MnCl2(s) --> Mn+(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
            [Cl⁻] = 0.92 mol MnCl2/1L × 2 mol Cl⁻ / 1 mol MnCl2 = 1.8 M
The answer to this question is [Cl⁻] = 1.8 M

When NH3(aq) is added to Cu2 (aq), a precipitate initially forms. Its formula is:
Rasek [7]
It’s B the cu looses its 2 and passes it to the NH3 that needs a bracket to separate them. The NH3 doesn’t loose its 3 because it’s already a compound!
Hope this helps!
