Answer:

The answer to your question is: c

Explanation:

A descomposition reaction is a chemical reaction in which the only one reactant yields two or more products.

a) HCl + NaHCO3 → H2O + CO2 + NaCl

This is not a descomposition reaction because there are two reactants not one, this option is incorrect.

b) 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl

THis option is also incorrect because there are two reactants in descompositin reaction there is only one reactant.

c) 2HgO → 2Hg + O2

There are only one reactant that yields 2 products, this is a descomposition reaction.

d) AgNO3 + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO3

THis is not a descomposition reaction because there are two reactants.

Which is a base-conjugate acid pair? NH3 and CIO
ozzi

Answer:

The pair will be:

- NH3/NH4⁺

- ClO⁻/HClO

Explanation:

A conjugate acid is formed after a base has reacted/accepted a proton.

Since H2O is amphiprotic, we can use it as the acid.

NH3 + H2O ⇄ NH4⁺ + OH⁻

ClO⁻ + H2O ⇄ HClO + OH⁻

after reacting, the base form conjugate acid.

Explain, in terms of charge distribution, why a molecule of carbon tetrachloride is a nonpolar molecule.​
Pie

Answer:

Explanation:

The covalent bond is the chemical bond between atoms where electrons are shared, forming a molecule. Covalent bonds are established between non-metallic elements, such as hydrogen H, oxygen O and chlorine Cl. These elements have many electrons in their outermost level (valence electrons) and have a tendency to gain electrons to acquire the stability of the electronic structure of noble gas.

The covalent bond between two atoms can be polar or nonpolar. If the atoms are equal, the bond will be nonpolar (since no atom attracts electrons more strongly). But, if the atoms are different, the bond will be polarized towards the most electronegative atom, because it will be the atom that attracts the electron pair with more force. Then it will be polar.

It can occur in a molecule that the bonds are polar and the molecule is nonpolar. This occurs because of the geometry of the molecule, which causes them to cancel the different equal polar bonds of the molecule.

In carbon tetrachloride the bonds are polar, but the tetrahedral geometry of the molecule causes all four dipoles to cancel out and the molecule to be apolar.

Am i correct so far on the first question? And how do i convert to molecules... I use avogadro's number, right?
Talja [164]
I'm pretty sure that you multiply the number of moles by avogadro's number (6.02x10^23)... you may want to check.

100 billion in scientific notation?
bulgar [2K]

Answer: 1×10^11

Explanation:

<u>concept to know:</u> scientific notation must be written in the form of a × 10^b

where 0<a<10.

100 billion= 100,000,000,000

there are 11 zeros after 1

1 × 10^11

Hope this helps!! :)

The chemical formula of aspirin is C9H8O4. What is the mass of 0.40 mol<br> of aspirin?​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 72 \ grams }}

Explanation:

To convert from moles to grams, we must use the molar mass (also known as the gram formula mass).

First, look up the molar masses of the elements in the formula.

  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • H: 1.008 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Next, multiply by the subscript, because it tells us the number of atoms of each element in the formula.

  • C₉: 4(12.011 g/mol)= 108.099 g/mol
  • H₈: 8(1.008 g/mol)= 8.064 g/mol
  • O₄: 4(15.999 g/mol)= 63.996 g/mol

Add the values.

  • 108.099 + 8.064+63.996=180.159 g/mol

Use this molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4}

Multiply by the given number of moles, 0.40

0.40 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4 *\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4}

The units moles of aspirin cancel.

0.40  *\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 }

72.0636 \ g \ C_9H_8O_4

The original number of moles has 2 sig figs (4 and 0), so answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, it is the ones place. The 0 in the tenth place tells us to leave the 2.

72 \ g
