Describe the difference between a ball-and-stick model and a space-filling model of a compound.

Chemistry

Lisa [10]3 years ago

A space-filling model shows the relative amount of space each atom takes up. In other words, a space-filling model can show relative sizes of atoms. However, unlike ball-and-stick or structural models, space-filling models do not show bond lengths clearly. Bonds are not really like sticks in a ball-and-stick model.

Explain why a random copolymer is obtained when 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene undergoes cationic polymerization.
dezoksy [38]

Solution :

In the field of chemistry, the cationic polymerization is a kind of the chain growth polymerization where the cation initiator transfers the charge to the monomer and makes it more reactive. This kind of polymerization reaction is very sensitive to the temperature. With increase in temperature, the molecular weight as well as the reaction rate decreases rapidly.

Thus in the cationic polymerization of the 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene, the carbonation intermediate is formed and it rearranges itself. The attack o the 2nd alkene ca take place both the carbonations, so that random copolymer is formed.

Assuming your weight is 440.55 N and the force of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s2 what is your mass? *
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

44.95408163 kg

44.95 kg (2 decimal places)

Explanation:

Weight=Mass*Gravity

440.55=m*9.8

Make m the subject

M=440.55/9.8

M= 44.95 kg

Fluorine (F) and bromine (Br) are in the same group on the periodic table. How do atoms of these elements compare when they form
mojhsa [17]

Answer is: Both a fluorine atom and a bromine atom gain one electron, and both atoms become stable.

Fluorine and bromine are in group 17 in Periodic table of elements. Group 17 (halogens) elements are in group 17: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I). They are very reactive and easily form many compounds.

Halogens need to gain one electron to have electron cofiguration like next to it noble gas.

Fluorine has atomic number 9, it means it has 9 protons and 9 electrons.

Fluorine tends to have eight electrons in outer shell like neon (noble gas) and gains one electron in chemical reaction.

Electron configuration of fluorine: ₉F 1s² 2s² 2p⁵.

Electron configuration of neon: ₁₀Ne 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.
