Decreasing order of C-C bond length is 1) ethene 2)ethyne 3) benzene 4) ethane

Chemistry
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4>3>1>2.

That is, the C-C bond length in ethane > benzene > ethene > ethyne.

Explanation:

The C-C bond in ethane is single, the C-C bond in ethene is double and the C-C bond in ethyne is triple. As the number of bonds between a C-C increases, the length of the bond decreases with an increase in strength. This explains why the C-C bond length in ethane > ethene > ethyne. For benzene, all the C-C bonds in the aromatic compound has been found to have an identical length of 1.40 Å, compared to ethane (1.54Å), ethene (1.34Å) and ethyne (1.20Å). Hence the trend in bond lengths: ethane > benzene > ethene > ethyne.

Magnesium chloride is a salt formed with ionic bonds between one magnesium ion and two chloride ions. Magnesium has two electron
katrin [286]

Answer:

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compound formed from the transfer of electron(s). One atom of the element loses electron(s) while the other atom gains electron(s).

The compound Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound . The bond between an atom of magnesium and 2 atoms of chlorine is an ionic bonding.

The valency electron of magnesium is 2 electron , for the atom of magnesium to  attain octet rule, it will easily lose it 2 electrons to the chlorine atoms.

The chlorine atom on the other hand has 7 valency electrons, to attain octet configuration it will most likely gain 1 electron to become stable.

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.

Paul [167]
Assuming its at r. t.p and pressure
no. of moles = 96/24=4moles
altho some books will say that its 23.7dm3/mole but that doesnt really matter because its the process that matters

Who discovered atomic structure​
Yuliya22 [10]
John Dalton

Although the concept of the atom dates back to the ideas of Democritus, the English meteorologist and chemist John Dalton formulated the first modern description of it as the fundamental building block of chemical structures.
