Ionic Bond is formed when the electronegativity difference is 0.4 > 2.0. Electronegativity is a term that can be defined as a tendency of an atom to attract electron towards its own self.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a term that can be defined as a tendency of an atom to attract electron towards its own self.

An electronegativity of an atom is affected by

The atomic number of the atom
Secondly by the distance at which the valence electron are residing from the nucleus

1. In case the electronegativity difference (which is denoted by ΔEN) is less than 0.5 then the bond formed is known as Nonpolar covalent.

2. In case the ΔEN is in between 0.5 and 1.6, the bond formed is referred to as the Polar covalent

3. In case the ΔEN is more /greater than 2.0, then the bond formed is referred to as Ionic Bond

2 Examples of Ionic bonds

The formation of sodium fluoride, NaF, from a sodium atom and a fluorine atom is an example of Ionic bond formation.
Another example is the formation of NaCl from sodium (Na),which is a metal, and chloride (Cl), which is a nonmetal

maw [93]

Answer:

final pressure ( P2) = 467.37 mm Hg

Explanation:

ideal gas:

PV = nRT

∴ P1 = 570 mm Hg * ( atm / 760 mm Hg ) = 0.75 atm

∴ T1 = 25 ° C = 298 K

∴ V1 = 1.250 L

∴ R = 0.082 atm L / K mol

⇒ n = P1*V1 / R*T1

⇒ n = (( 0.75 ) * ( 1.25 )) / (( 0.082 ) * ( 298 ))

⇒ n = 0.038 mol gas

∴ T2 = 175 °C ( 448 K )

∴ V2 = 2.270 L

⇒ P2 = nRT2 / V2

⇒ P2 = (( 0.038 ) * ( 0.082 ) * ( 448 )) / 2.270

⇒ P2 = 0.615 atm * ( 760 mm Hg / atm ) = 467.37 mm Hg

Softa [21]

Answer:

Kc for this equilibrium is 2.30*10⁻⁶

Explanation:

Equilibrium occurs when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction and the concentrations of reactants and products are held constant.

Being:

aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

the equilibrium constant Kc is defined as:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c}*[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} *[B]^{b} }$

In other words, the constant Kc is equal to the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients by the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. Kc is constant for a given temperature, that is to say that as the reaction temperature varies, its value varies.

In this case, being:

2 NH₃(g) ⇔ N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g)

the equilibrium constant Kc is:

$Kc=\frac{[N_{2} ]*[H_{2} ]^{3} }{[NH_{3} ]^{2} }$

Being:

[N₂]= 0.0551 M
[H₂]= 0.0183 M
[NH₃]= 0.383 M

and replacing:

$Kc=\frac{0.0551*0.0183^{3} }{0.383^{2} }$

you get:

Kc= 2.30*10⁻⁶

Kc for this equilibrium is 2.30*10⁻⁶
