Answer: The red litmus paper turns blue on dipping in NaOH solution.

Explanation:

Litmus paper is the indicator that detects the nature of the solution, whether it is acidic or basic.

There are 2 types of litmus paper:

Red litmus paper: This paper will turn blue if it is dipped in basic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in acidic solution.
Blue litmus paper: This paper will turn red if it is dipped in acidic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in basic solution.

NaOH is a strong base, so when a red litmus paper is dipped in the beaker having necessary amount of NaOH, the red litmus paper turns into blue.

The central Xe atom in the XeF4 molecule has ________ unbonded electron pair(s) and ________ bonded electron pair(s) in its vale

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Lewis structure in attachment.

Explanation:

Atoms of elements in and beyond the third period of the periodic table form some compounds in which more than eight electrons surround the central atom. In addition to the 3s and 3p orbitals, elements in the third period also have 3d orbitals that can be used in bonding. These orbitals enable an atom to form an expanded octet.

The central Xe atom in the XeF₄ molecule has two unbonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs in its valence shell.

Be sure to answer all parts. For each of the following pairs of elements, state whether the binary compound they form is likely

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

(a) Covalent bond. NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride)

(b) Ionic bond. LiCl (lithium chloride)

Explanation:

(a) N and F

Nitrogen and fluorine are nonmetals, with high and similar electronegativities, so they form covalent bonds, in which they share pairs of electrons to complete the octet in their valence shell. N has 5 valence electrons so it will form 3 covalent bonds while each Cl has 7 valence electrons so it will form 1 covalent bond. As a result, the empirical formula is NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride).

(b) Li and Cl

Lithium is a metal and Chlorine is a nonmetal. They have different electronegativities so they form an ionic bond, in which Cl gains 1 electron (7 valence e⁻) and Li loses 1 electron (1 valence e⁻). The empirical formula is LiCl (lithium chloride).

Cuando se quema 1 mol de metano –o sea, 16 g–, se desprenden 802

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.

Explanation:

La cantidad de energía liberada por la combustión de una unidad de masa del hidrocarburo ( $Q$ ), en kilojoules por mol, es igual a la cantidad de energía liberada por mol de compuesto ( $\bar {Q}$ ), en kilojoules por mol, dividido por su masa molar ( $M$ ), en gramos por mol:
