How do an ionic bond and a covalent bond differ?

Chemistry

The formation of compound takes place by atom in order to complete their octet and attain stability. The atom combine with other atom either by sharing of electrons or transfer of electrons from one atom to other. The sharing of electrons results in the formation of covalent bond whereas transfer of electrons results in formation of ionic bond. The loss of electron from an atom results in formation of cation whereas gain of electron results in the formation of anion. The force of attraction between the two oppositely charged ions is electrostatic force of attarction.

Hence, an ionic bond is an attraction between opposite charged ions. a covalent bond is sharing of electrons between atoms.

How many atoms are in this formula PCl6 ?
Debora [2.8K]

The molecule is unstable and impossible to create the PCl_6

Only one way is that change the formula

  • PCl_6-

Lets look at structure(See attachment)

There are total 7atoms

  • P=1
  • Cl=6

Which buffer would be better able to hold a steady pH on the addition of strong acid, buffer 1 or buffer 2? Explain. Buffer 1: a
Talja [164]

Answer:

Buffer 1.

Explanation:

Ammonia is a weak base. It acts like a Bronsted-Lowry Base when it reacts with hydrogen ions.

\rm NH_3\; (aq) + H^{+}\; (aq) \to {NH_4}^{+}\; (aq).

\rm NH_3 gains one hydrogen ion to produce the ammonium ion \rm {NH_4}^{+}. In other words, \rm {NH_4}^{+} is the conjugate acid of the weak base \rm NH_3.

Both buffer 1 and 2 include

  • the weak base ammonia \rm NH_3, and
  • the conjugate acid of the weak base \rm {NH_4}^{+}.

The ammonia \rm NH_3 in the solution will react with hydrogen ions as they are added to the solution:

\rm NH_3\; (aq) + H^{+}\; (aq) \to {NH_4}^{+}\; (aq).

There are more \rm NH_3 in the buffer 1 than in buffer 2. It will take more strong acid to react with the majority of \rm NH_3 in the solution. Conversely, the pH of buffer 1 will be more steady than that in buffer 2 when the same amount of acid has been added.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?
kari74 [83]
The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane (C_{4} H_{10}) when reacted with oxygen (O_{2})  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by: 

C_{4} H_{10} + \frac{13}{2} O_{2} ---> 4 CO_{2}  + 5 H_{2}O

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants. 

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required. 

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane  = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide (CO_{2}) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane (C_{4} H_{10}) with the mole ratio of (CO_{2}) produced to the (C_{4} H_{10}) reacted, and then with the molar mass of (CO_{2}), which is 44 grams/mole. 

Mass of carbon dioxide produced 
    = 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles CO_{2}/ 1 mole C_{4} H_{10}] * 44 grams/mole CO_{2}

Mass of carbon dioxide produced  
    = 99.32 grams CO_{2}

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.
