Specific heat capacity is the required amount of heat per unit of mass in order to raise teh temperature by one degree Celsius. It can be calculated from this equation: H = mCΔT where the H is heat required, m is mass of the substance, ΔT is the change in temperature, and C is the specific heat capacity.

H = m<span>CΔT
2501.0 = 0.158 (C) (61.0 - 32.0)

C = 545.8 J/kg</span>·°C

Select the correct answer. Elements Electronegativity aluminum (Al) 1.61 calcium (Ca) 1 carbon (C) 2.55 chlorine (Cl) 3.16 fluor
marishachu [46]

Answer: Fe - O


Explanation:


1) Start by showing the chart information in a more understandable way:


Elements ---------- Electronegativity


aluminum (Al) ----- 1.61


calcium (Ca) ------- 1


carbon (C) ---------- 2.55


chlorine (Cl) -------- 3.16


fluorine (F) --------- 4


hydrogen (H) ------ 2.2


iron (Fe) ------------- 1.83


nitrogen (N) --------- 3.04


oxygen (O) ----------- 3.44


phosphorus (P) ----- 2.19


potassium (K) -------- 0.82


silicon (Si) ------------- 1.9


sulfur (S) --------------- 2.58


2) Find the electronegativity differences for the atoms in each compound:


i) Ca – Cl: 3.16 - 1 = 2.16


ii) Fe – O: 3.44 - 1.83 = 1.61


iii) H – S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38


iii= F – F = 4 - 4 = 0


3) Analysis


i) The higher the electronegativity difference between two non-metal elements, the the more the polar the covalent bond. Therefore, the bond H - S is the most polar among the non-metal - non-metal bonds listed. But 0.38 is a small difference, so this is not very polar.


ii) For metal - non-metal bonds, when the difference in electronegativities is too high (close to or greater than 2.0) the ionic character is dominant, and so you cannot classify the bond as polar but as ionic. Therefore, Ca - Cl with 2.16 electronegativity difference is a ionic bond.


iii) The bond in Fe – O has electronegativty difference of 1.61, so it is yet covalent, and highly polar.

Determine the pHpH of an HFHF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying
PIT_PIT [208]

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

Determine the pH of an HF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying assumption that x is small? (K_a for HF is 6.8\times 10^{-4}.)

[HF] = 0.280 M

Express your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.

Explanation:3

Initial concentration if HF = c = 0.280 M

Dissociation constant of the HF = K_a=6.8\times 10^{-4}

HF\rightleftharpoons H^++F^-

Initially

c          0            0

At equilibrium :

(c-x)      x             x

The expression of disassociation constant is given as:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}

6.8\times 10^{-4}=\frac{x^2}{(0.280 M-x)}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.01346 M

So, the concentration of hydrogen ion at equilibrium is :

[H^+]=x=0.01346 M

The pH of the solution is ;

pH=-\log[H^+]=-\log[0.01346 M]=1.87

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.

Define Saturated Solution. What happens as a saturates solution cools?
solong [7]

Saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent. When saturated solution cools, the solution began precipitate from the solution, because under lower temperature, usually, less amount solute can be dissolved in the solvent.
