Hydrides are compounds made up of hydrogen and metal. Why ammonia has the highest boiling point among the hydrides of elements i

n Group 15? 
Select one:

a. The bonds in ammonia are polar

b. The size of the nitrogen atom is the smallest

c. The ammonia molecules is the smallest among the hydrides of the elements in Group 15

The correct option is D.
The hydrogen atoms that are attached to the nitrogen atom in the ammonia molecule are capable of forming hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond that exist in the ammonia molecule is the reason why it shows higher boiling point compare to the other hydrides. Hydrogen bond occur in ammonia because ammonia is one of the most electronegative elements.

What is the boiling point of a solution containing 203 g of ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) and 1035 g of water? (Kb for water is 0.52
Andru [333]

Answer:

101,37°C

Explanation:

Boiling point elevation is one of the colligative properties of matter. The formula is:

ΔT = kb×m <em>(1)</em>

Where:

ΔT is change in boiling point: (X-100°C) -X is the boiling point of the solution-

kb is ebulloscopic constant (0,52°C/m)

And m is molality of solution (mol of ethylene glycol / kg of solution). Moles of ethylene glycol (MW: 62,07g/mol):

203g × (1mol /62,07g) = <em>3,27moles of ethlyene glycol</em>

<em />

Molality is: 3,27moles of ethlyene glycol / (1,035kg + 0,203kg) = 2,64m

Replacing these values in (1):

X - 100°C = 0,52°C/m×2,64m

X - 100°C = 1,37°C

<em>X = 101,37°C</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

How many milliliters of an aqueous solution of 0.170 M ammonium carbonate is needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt
Citrus2011 [14]

There will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.There will be needed mL of

Why?

In order to calculate how many milliliters are needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt given its concentration, we first need to find its chemical formula which is the following:

(NH_{4})2CO_{3}

Now that we know the chemical formula of the substance, we need to find its molecular mass. We can do it by the following way:

N_{2}=14g*2=28g\\\\2H_{4}=2*1g*4=8g\\\\C=12.01g*1=12.01g\\\\O_{3}=15.99g*3=47.97g

We have that the molecular mass of the substance will be:

MolecularMass=\frac{28g+8g+12.01g+47.97g}{mol}=95.98\frac{g}{mol}

Therefore, knowing the molecular mass of the substance, we need to calculate how many mols represents 16.1 grams of the same substance, we can do it by the following way:

mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{mass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}{molarmass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}

mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{16.1g}{95.98\frac{g}{mol}}=0.167mol

Finally, if we need to calculate how many milliliters are needed, we need to use the following formula:

M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}

M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}\\\\volume_{solution}=\frac{moles_{solute}}{M}

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

volume_{solution}=\frac{0.167mol}{0.170\frac{mol}{L}}\\\\volume_{solution}=0.982L=0.982L*1000=982.35mL

Henc, there will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.

Have a nice day!

Why are the elements 57 through 70, and 89 through 102, found separately at the bottom of the Periodic table?
-Dominant- [34]
<span>Elements from 57 to 71 are Lanthanoids and from 89 to 103 are Actinoids. Simply I would say Actinoids have less similarity in chemical properties than Lanthanoids. On the other hands, Actinoids have randomized chemical strutural bonds.</span>
