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.

Match the salt with the acid and base used to form it in a neutralizing reaction.
nignag [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

K2SO4 - KOH and H2SO4

NaBr - NaOH and HBr

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Salts are compounds that contain positively charged ions and negatively charged ions. That is; they consist of the positive ion of a base and the negative ion of an acid.
  • Salts may be produced when acids and bases are combined together in equal proportions, a process called neutralization.
  • During neutralization reactions an acid reacts with a base to form a salt and water as the only products.

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 138 mol of hydrogen gas and 64 mol of oxygen gas.
charle [14.2K]
2H₂₍g₎ + O₂ ₍g₎→ 2H₂O

138 mol H₂ × (2 mol H₂O ÷ 2 mol H₂)= 138 mol H₂O
64 mol O₂ × (2 mol H₂O ÷ 1 mol O₂)= 128 mol H₂O

128 mol H₂O
