True

The electronegativity of an atom is the tendency of an atom in a compound or molecule to attract bonding electrons unto itself. A polar bond is formed when there is an uneven distribution of charges in the molecule brought about by differences in the electronegativities of the atoms in the bonds. These differences create regions of partially positive and partially negative charges. A nonpolar bond only have very small differences in the electronegativity of the bonding atoms. 

Generally, when the difference in electronegativity is less than 0.5, the bond is polar. When the difference is between 0.5 and 1.7, the bond is polar. Finally, when the difference is greater than 1.7, the bond is ionic, which means that the bonding electron is very much attracted to the highly electronegative atom that it is transferred to the said atom instead of merely being shared by the atoms in the bond.

In IR spectroscopy, we normally talk about "frequencies" when in reality we are referring to wavenumbers. What is the mathematic
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

(b) Wavenumber and wavelength

The wavenumber is the distance over which a cycle repeats, that is, it is the number of waves in a unit distance.

\bar \nu = \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

Thus, if λ = 3 µm,

\bar \nu = \dfrac{1}{3 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}}= 3.3 \times 10^{5}\text{ m}^{-1} = \textbf{3300 cm}^{-1}

(a) Wavenumber and frequency

Since

λ = c/f and 1/λ = f/c

the relation between wavenumber and frequency is

\bar \nu = \mathbf{\dfrac{f}{c}}

Thus, if f = 90 THz

\bar \nu = \dfrac{90 \times 10^{12} \text{ s}^{-1}}{3 \times 10^{8} \text{ m$\cdot$ s}^{-1}}= 3 \times 10^{5} \text{ m}^{-1} = \textbf{3000 cm}^{-1}

(c) Units

(i) Frequency

The units are s⁻¹ or Hz.

(ii) Wavelength

The SI base unit is metres, but infrared wavelengths are usually measured in micrometres (roughly 2.5 µm to 20 µm).

(iii) Wavenumber

The SI base unit is m⁻¹, but infrared wavenumbers are usually measured in cm⁻¹ (roughly 4000 cm⁻¹ to 500 cm⁻¹).

How many grams (m) of glucose are in 165 ml of a 5.50% (m/v) glucose solution? express your answer numerically in grams?
Leya [2.2K]
     <span> mass of glucose = 0.055 *165 = 9.075 g

vol of methyl alc = 0.185 * 1.87 = 0.346 L = 346 ml

% NaCl ( m/v ) = mass NaCl * 100/ vol of soln

or Vol of Soln = mass NaCl / % NaCl (m/v)

= 32.1 * 100 / 6 = 535 ml the total vol of soln</span>
