The bond between sodium (na) and chlorine (cl) to form halite (salt) is a(n) ________ bond.

Chemistry

<span>When an ionic bond is formed between sodium (na) and chlorine (cl), the resulting molecule is called halite (salt). Ionic bonds involve the transfer of valence electrons. When this occurs between metals and non-metals, the metal loses an electron (becoming a cation) and the non-metal gains an electron (becoming an anion).</span>

An impure sample of table salt that weighed 0.8421 g, when dissolved in water and treated with excess AgNO3, formed 2.044 g of A
Lilit [14]

Answer:

99.24%.

Explanation:

  • NaCl reacted with AgNO₃ as in the balanced equation:

<em>NaCl + AgNO₃ → AgCl(↓) + NaNO₃,</em>

1.0 mol of NaCl reacts with 1.0 mol of AgNO₃ to produce 1.0 mol of AgCl and 1.0 mol of NaNO₃.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of AgCl produced:

no. of moles of AgCl = mass/molar mass = (2.044 g)/(143.32 g/mol) = 0.0143 mol.

  • Now, we can calculate the no. of moles of NaCl that can precipitated as AgCl (0.0143 mol), these moles represents the no. of moles of pure NaCl in the sample:

<em>using cross multiplication:</em>

1.0 mol of NaCl produce → 1.0 mol of AgCl, from the stichiometry.

∴ 0.0143 mol of NaCl produce → 0.0143 mol of AgCl.

  • Now, we can get the mass of puree NaCl in the sample:

mass of pure NaCl = (no. of moles of pure NaCl)(molar mass of NaCl) = (0.0143 mol)(58.44 g/mol) = 0.8357 g.

∴ The percentage of NaCl in the impure sample = [(mass of pure NaCl)/(mass of the impure sample)] x 100 = [(0.8357 g)/(0.8421 g)] x 100 = 99.24%.

Which step of the scientific method involves obtaining resources for your question
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

c-do background research.

Explanation:

The scientific methods exposes the way scientists carry out their investigation and how findings are reported and at times discarded. It is systematic way of studying perceived observations in the environment.

During the course of an investigation, scientists may seek to find out about the prevailing knowledge about a phenomena and the level of research that might have been done in that regard. It is proper for such a scientist to do a background research by searching for related journals and publications in that field.

Which of the following item(s) explain the differences between the Ka values. Choose one or more: A. The oxidation state for oxy
Allisa [31]

Answer:

<em>C. The electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms pull electron density from the oxygen in trifluoroacetate. The negative charge is more stabilized in trifluoroacetate by this effect.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em>The structures of trifluoroacetate and acetic acid are both shown in the image attached.</em>

<em>The trifluoroacetate anion (CF3CO2-), just like the acetate anion has in the middle, two oxygen atoms.</em>

<em>However, in the trifluoroacetate anion, there are also three electronegative fluorine atoms attached to the nearby carbon atom attached to the carbonyl, and these pull some electron density through the sigma bonding network away from the oxygen atoms, thereby spreading out the negative charge further. This effect, called the "inductive effect" stabilizes the anion formed,the trifouoroacetate anion is thus more stabilized than the acetate anion.</em>

<em>Hence, trifluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, having a pKa of -0.18.</em>

Periods On the periodic table represent elements
Natalka [10]

Answer:When you look at the periodic table, each row is called a period (Get it? Like PERIODic table.). All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons.
