Which scenario would cause a covalent bond to form?

1 answer:

5 0

Searching for this question, I found the options on the internet.
"1.<span />Two atoms share electrons so they can fill their outer shells<span>2.The constant motion of electrons and the creation of charge imbalances bonds two molecules together3.A hydrogen atom with a slight positive charge is attracted to a negative charge of another molecule or atom4.One atom loses one or more electrons and the other atom gains one or more electrons"

The correct answer would be number 1. A covalent bond is achieved when two atoms share electrons from their outer shell so that they have a full outer shell leading to the electronic configuration balance they need.</span>

Silver occurs in trace amounts in some ores of lead, and lead can displace silver from solution: Pb(s) + 2Ag+ (aq) LaTeX: \longr

VikaD [51]

Answer : The value of $\Delta G^o$ and K is, -180 kJ/mol and $3.6\times 10^{31}$

Explanation :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

$Pb(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(g)$

The half-cell reactions are:

Oxidation reaction (anode) : $Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$

Reduction reaction (cathode) : $2Ag^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag(g)$

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.93 V

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 0.93$

$\Delta G^o=-179490J/mol=-179.49kJ/mol\approx -180kJ/mol$

Now we have to calculate the value of 'K'.

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K$

where,

$\Delta G_^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = -180 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = $8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K$

T = temperature = 298 K

K = equilibrium constant = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

$-180kJ/mol=-(8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K)\times (298K)\times \ln K$

$K=3.6\times 10^{31}$

Therefore, the value of $\Delta G^o$ and K is, -180 kJ/mol and $3.6\times 10^{31}$

There are three isotopes of X element (X):

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 17.5 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

X-17 isotope = atomic mass17.2 amu, abundance:78.99%

X-18isotope = atomic mass 18.1 amu, abundance 10.00%

X-19isotope = atomic mass:19.1 amu, abundance: 11.01%

Average atomic mass of X = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100

Average atomic mass = (78.99×17.2)+(10.00×18.1) +(11.01+ 19.1) /100

Average atomic mass = 1358.628 + 181 +210.291 / 100

Average atomic mass = 1749.919 / 100

Average atomic mass = 17.5 amu.

Use the rules (in order) to assign oxidation numbers to each of the elements in the compounds below.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation number is an integer that represents the number of electrons that an atom receives or makes available to others when it forms a given compound.

The oxidation number is positive if the atom loses electrons, or shares them with an atom that has a tendency to accept them. And it will be negative when the atom gains electrons, or shares them with an atom that has a tendency to give them up.

Chemical compounds are electrically neutral. That is, the charge that all the atoms of a compound contribute must be globally null. That is, when having positive or negative charges in a compound, their sum must be zero.

There are some rules for determining oxidation numbers in compounds. Among them it is possible to mention:

Hydrogen (H) has an oxidation number +1 with nonmetals and - 1 with metals.
Oxygen (O) presents the oxidation number -2
Fluorine F has a unique oxidation state -1

Then:

NOF: N+(-2)+(-1)=0 → N=3 → oxidation number of nitrogen (N) is +3, oxidation number of oxygen (O) is -2 and oxidation number of fluorine (F) is -1.

ClF₅: Cl + 5*(-1)=0 → Cl= 5 → oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is +5 and oxidation number of fluorine (F) is -1.

H₂SO₃: 2*(+1)+S+3*(-2)=0 → S=4 → oxidation number of hydrogen (H) is +1, oxidation number of oxygen (O) is -2 and oxidation number of sulfur (S) is +4.

The nutritional energy content (in Calories) present in 86g of broccoli with 6g of carbohydrates, 2.6g of protein, and 0.3g of f

asambeis [7]

Answer:

37.1 calories.

Approximately, 37.1 = 40 calories.

Explanation:

So, without mincing words let's dive straight into the solution to the question above.

We are given the following parameters which are going to help in solving this particular Question.

The mass of broccoli = 86g of broccoli, mass of carbohydrates present = 6g of carbohydrates, the mass of protein present = 2.6g of protein and the mass of fat present = 0.3g of fat.

Therefore, the nutritional energy content (in Calories) = (6 × 4) + (2.6 × 4) + (0.3 × 9) = 10.4 + 24 + 2.7 = 37.1

Hence, the nutritional energy content (in Calories) = 37.1 calories.

Approximately, 37.1 = 40 calories.
