What semimetal can form four single covalent bonds.

Chemistry
1 answer:
lesantik [10]3 years ago
4 0

The right answer is Sillicon.

Silicon (Si) is the chemical element of atomic number 14. It is the most abundant element in the earth's crust after oxygen, or 25.7% of its mass, but it is comparatively only present in relatively small quantities in the material constituting the living.

It is a semi-metal, ie it does not meet all the criteria to be defined as being a metal.

It has four free electrons in the last orbit, so it is able to form four covalent bonds. (the carbon can form 4 covalent bonds but it is not a semi-metal)

Neap tides, relatively weak tides, occur when the Moon is in position(s)
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

D) B and D.  Weak tides, called neap tides, are experienced in the Earth's oceans when the sun is in positions B or D. In this case, the sun and moon interfere with each other in producing tidal bulges on Earth.  It is definitely not the other answer since I got it right on USATESTPREP.

Pls help me i dont know this
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

1. 12.6 moles

2. 8.95 moles

3.  2A + 5B → 3C

4. 48 moles

Explanation:

1. 2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃

We assume the chlorine in excess. Ratio is 2:2

2 moles of Fe, can produce 2 moles of chloride

12.6 moles of Fe will produce 12.6 moles of chloride.

2. 2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃

For the same reaction, first of all we need to convert the mass to moles:

500 g . 1mol / 55.85 g = 8.95 mol

As ratio is 2:2, the moles we have are the same, that the produced

4. The reaction for the combustion is:

2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) → 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)

We assume the oxygen in excess.

Ratio is 2:6, so 2 mol of ethane produce 6 moles of water

Therefore 16 moles of ethane may produce (16 .6) / 2 = 48 moles

Sheena has a lump of sodium, a lump of potassium and a lump of lithium, but they’ve got mixed up and she doesn’t know which one
Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:

All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:

Most reactive: Potassium (K)

Intermediate: Sodium (Na)

Least reactive: Lithium (Li)

Hope it helps!

Identify the characteristics of a good recrystallization solvent. Select one or more: Dissolves a chemical sample well at high t
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Dissolves a chemical sample well at high temperatures.

Does not dissolve a chemical sample well at low temperatures.

Explanation:

Recrystallization involves the dissolution of the solute in a solvent at high temperature. As the solution cools, it becomes saturated and the solute crystallizes out of the solution.

A good recrystallization solvent must only dissolve the solute at high temperature and must not dissolve it at low temperature. Hence, these are the two conditions required for any good recrystallization solvent.
