A. Atoms of chlorine (Cl)

Explanation:

The atoms of chlorine are held together by non-polar covalent bonds.

Covalent bonds are formed between two or more atoms having zero or very small electronegativity difference.
For homonuclear molecules where the two bonding atom are of the same kind, the electronegativity difference is zero.
This covalent bond type is called non-polar covalent bond.
In this bond type, there is equal sharing of the electron pair between the atoms and there is no electrostatic charge on the molecule.

Another chemistry question i’m not good at this at all:( has me stressed

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 15.86 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Z-16.000 amu = 205

Number of atoms of Z-14.000 amu = 15

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Total number of atoms = 205 + 15 = 220

Percentage of Z-16.000 = 205/220 ×100 = 93.18%

Percentage of Z-14.000 = 15/220 ×100 = 6.82 %

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100

Average atomic mass = (93.18×16.000)+(6.82×14.000) /100

Average atomic mass = 1490.88 + 95.48 / 100

Average atomic mass = 1586.36 / 100

Average atomic mass = 15.86 amu.

What happens when wind sweeps up sand and throws it against a big rock?

RideAnS [48]

In deserts, wind often causes weathering by blowing sand and other material against cliffs and large rocks. This wears them down and creates more bits of sand and dust. Over time, the rock is scraped and polished away. ... When a gust of wind blows, it picks up sand and other bits of material.

A solution is made by dissolving 4.87 g of potassium nitrate in water to a final volume of 86.4 mL solution. What is the weight/

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A solution is made by dissolving 4.87 g of potassium nitrate in water to a final volume of 86.4 mL solution. The weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is :

2.67%

Explanation:

Note : Look at the density of potassium nitrate in water if given in the question.

You are calculating weight /Volume not weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute

Here the weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is asked : So first convert the VOLUME OF SOLUTION into MASS

Density of potassium nitrate in water KNO3 = 2.11 g/mL

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

Density = 2.11 g/mL

Volume of solution = 86.4 mL

$2.11=\frac{mass}{86.4}$

$mass = 2.11\times 86.4$

$mass=182.3grams$

Mass of Solute = 4.87 g

Mass of Solution = 183.2 g

w/w% of the solute =

$= \frac{mass\ of\ solute}{mass\ of\ solution}\times 100$

$=\frac{4.87}{183.2}\times 100$

w/w%=2.67%

Determine the specific heat ofmaterial if a 12g sample absorbed 48j as it was heated from 20-40

devlian [24]

Answer:

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of material = ?

Mass of sample = 12 g

Heat absorbed = 48 J

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 40°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 40°C -20°C

ΔT = 20°C

48 J = 12 g×c×20°C

48 J =240 g.°C×c

c = 48 J/240 g.°C

c =0.2 J/g.°C
