True or False the molecule CCl4 contains one double bond and three single bonds.

Chemistry

Answer: False

Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.

C:6:1s^22s^22p^2

Cl:17:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

False: C-Cl is a single bond as Cl is -1 in its valency and C is 4.

9. How many grams are in 2.0 x 105 molecules of carbon monoxide?
timama [110]

Answer: 9.3 x 10^ 18 g CO

Explanation:

Start by knowing that carbon monoxide is the compound CO. To convert molecules to grams, you first need to convert molecules to moles. This can be done using the conversion factor for Avogadro's Number:

(2.0 x 10^5 molecules CO) x 1 mol CO / 6.02 x 10^23 molecules CO

This cancels molecules CO.

Then, you can convert moles to grams, which is your desired quantity. You can find the number of grams for CO by looking at the periodic table and adding together their masses. C = 12 g and O = 16 g. Total of 28 g CO:

(1 mol CO) x 28 g CO / 1 mol CO

This cancels mol CO, which leaves grams CO.

Determine the oxidation states of the elements in the compounds listed. None of the oxygen-containing compounds are peroxides or
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

You need to remember that the oxidation number of H is +1, except when it is in a metal hydrites like NaH, where its oxidation number is -1. Then, the oxidation number of O is -2, but in peroxides is -1. So with these rules you just have to multiply the ox. number with the name of atoms and all the elements in the reaction must sum 0.

How does the density of a hershey bar compare to the density of the a half bar?
anastassius [24]

The density would be the same for the whole bar as well as one half of the bar. Density is a identity I believe, by this I mean that it stays the same no matter how little or how much of the same substance you have. Since density = mass / volume, half the bar has half of the weight as well as half of the volume of the whole bar, making the density the same.

For example, a block weighs 10 grams and has a volume of 5 ml. the density would be d = 10/5 or, d = 2g/ml

Half of the block weighs 5 grams and has a volume of 2.5 ml. The density is d = 5/2.5, or, d = 2 g/ml.

See, although there are different amounts of the same substance, their density is the same.
