would you expect the N-O bond in HNO2 to be longer, shorter, or the same length as the N-O bonds in NO2^-

1 answer:

8 0

Longer, this is because the H in HNO2 is bonded with an oxygen, no longer allowing this structure to have a resonance structure.
NO2 on the other hand has one double bond and one single bond, so it has a resonance structure. And resonance structures are actually one structure so there isn't really a single and double bond, it's actually a 1 and 1/2 bond that calls for a higher bond order.
And I higher bond order will result in a shorter lengths!
I hope this helps out!!! And just out of curiosity, is this off of an AP FRQ packet??

Combustion of hydrocarbons such as nonane () produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosp

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Part 1: C₉H₂₀ (l) + 14O₂ (g) ----> 9CO₂ (g) + 10H₂0 (g)

Part 2: Volume of CO₂ produced = 1223.21 L

Note: the complete second part of the question is given below:

2. Suppose 0.470 kg of nonane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 17.0 °C. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Explanation:

Part 1: Balanced chemical equation

C₉H₂₀ (l) + 14O₂ (g) ----> 9CO₂ (g) + 10H₂0 (g)

Part 2: volume of carbon dioxide produced

From the equation of the reaction;

At s.t.p., I mole of C₉H₂₀ reacts with 14 moles of O₂ to produce 9 moles of CO₂

molar mass of C₉H₂₀ = 128g/mol: molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol, molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4 L

Therefore, 128 g of C₉H₂₀ produces 14 * 22.4 L of CO₂ i.e. 313.6 L of CO₂.

O.470 Kg of nonane = 470 g of nonane

470 g of C₉H₂₀ will produce 470 * (313.6/128) L of CO₂ = 1151.50 L of CO₂

Volume of CO₂ gas produced at 1 atm and 17 °C;

Using P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

V₂ = P₁V₁T₂/P₂T₁

where P₁ = 1 atm, V₁ = 1151.50 L, T₁ = 273 K, P₂ = 1 atm, T₂ = 17 + 273 = 290 K

Substituting the values; V₂ = (1 * 1151.5 * 290)/(1 * 273)

Therefore volume of CO₂ produced, V₂ = 1223.21 L of CO₂

Characteristics of Life Present in Viruses:

has a defined boundary - viruses are made up simply of genetic material surrounded by a protein capsid and sometimes a lipid membrane

Characteristics of Life Absent in Viruses:

made up of one or more cells - one of the main arguments for why viruses are not living is that they are not cellular
uses energy - this is a tricky one. They don't use or produce their own energy. However, in order to reproduce they do hijack the host cells and steal energy from them in order to reproduce
exhibits growth and development - although viruses do reproduce, the individual viral particles do not exhibit growth or development
possess internal organisation - other than the fact they ahve genetic material, the inside of a virus does not contain internal organization like a cytosol, instead conssiting of the bare minimum amount of proteins to survive
eliminates waste - since they do not have their own metabolism, they have no waste to eliminate

Please help !!!!!!!!

1) CH2 (gas) + Br (solid) -> BrC (solid) + H2 (gas)
2) a) CH4 + Br2 -> CH3Br + HBr
2) b) methane + bromine is substitution because one hydrogen atom from methane is replaced by one bromine atom. addition reaction takes place when one molecule combines with another to form a larger molecule so therefore a molecule from X and bromine combine to form XBr.

What elements can join wit other elements o form a covalent bond

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.
