Answer:
D. C → Cl electronegativity difference > 0.5
Explanation:
The electro negativity of an atom in a compound refers to its ability to attract the electrons of a bond towards itself.
On the Pauling's scale, carbon has an electro negativity value of 2.55 while that of chlorine is 3.16. The difference in electro negativity between the both atoms is about 0.61.
The dipole is aslways directed towards the more electronegative atom. Hence the direction is ; C → Cl
Hydrogen is a
covalent bond. (A bond where one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms)
Explanation:
Given problem:
Find the molar mass of:
SO₃ and C₁₀H₈
Solution:
The molar mass of a compound is the mass in grams of one mole of the substance.
To solve this, we are going to add the individual atomic masses of the elements in the compound;
Atomic mass;
S = 32g/mol; O = 16g/mol; C = 12g/mol and H = 1g/mol
For SO₃;
= 32 + 3(16)
= 32 + 48
= 80g/mol
For C₁₀H₈
= 10(12) + 8(1)
= 120 + 8
= 128g/mol
Lots of substances. Rocks, metals, minerals, you name it.
