Answer:

The correct option is B) One atom of sodium and one atom of fluorine.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion. In this way, the octet rule is fulfilled, which establishes that the atoms of the elements bind each other in the attempt to complete their valence layer, leaving the atom stable with 8 electrons in its last layer.

Given this, the correct option is option B). Sodium is a metal forming the cation and fluorine is a nonmetal, then it will form the anion.

Using the kinetic molecular theory, explain what the difference is between a gas that exerts a pressure of 1.0 atm and one that
Illusion [34]

Answer:

In the kinetic molecular theory, the molecules of an ideal gas are in constant random motion inside the container of the gas, and the pressure of the gas (which is the pressure exerted by the molecules in their collisions with the walls of the container) arise from this random motion of the molecules.

The main assumptions of the kinetic theory of gases are:

  • The gas consists of a large number of molecules that collide between each other and the walls of the container; all these collisions are elastic
  • The duration of the collisions is negligible compared to the time between the collisions
  • The number of molecules is so large that statistics can be applied
  • Intermolecular forces between the molecules are negligible (except during the collisions)
  • The volume of the molecules is negligible compared to the volume of the container

In particular, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules, according to the equation:

pV=\frac{2}{3}K

where

p is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume of the container

K is the average kinetic energy of the molecules in the gas

We see that as the pressure is higher, the higher the kinetic energy of the particles: this means that the molecules will move faster, on average.

Therefore in this problem, the gas that exerts a pressure of 1.5 atm will have molecules moving faster than the molecules of the gas exerting a pressure of only 1.0 atm.

Answer:

0.72 mole of oxygen would produce 320.4 kJ of heat.

Explanation:

CH₄ (g) + 2O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2H₂O (ℓ) + 890kJ

According to the equation,

2 moles of O₂ produces 890 kJ of heat

So, 0.72 moles of O₂ will produce:

Therefore, 0.72 moles of oxygen would produce 320.4 kJ of heat.

How many ions form when 39 grams of calcium fluoride are added to excess water? a. 0.50 mol b. 1.0 mol c. 1.5 mol d. 3.0 mol
agasfer [191]

Answer:

c. 1.5 mol

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no, of moles of 39.0 grams of calcium fluoride.

n = mass / molar mass = (39.0 g) / (78.07 g/mol) = 0.499 mol ≅ 0.5 mol.

  • CaF₂ ionized in water as:

<em>CaF₂ → Ca⁺² + 2F⁻.</em>

Every 0.1 mole of CaF₂ is ionized to 3 ions (1 ion of Ca⁺² and 2 ions of F⁻).

<em>So, 0.5 mol of CaF₂ will contain (3 x 0.5 mol = 1.5 mol) of ions.</em>

Thus, the right choice is "c. 1.5 mol".
