Chemistry
1 answer:
Sati [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: C. Metals tend to easily lose their valence electrons.

Explanation:

Metals are those substances which have tendency to loose their valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and forms positive ions called as cations.

Example: Gold, potassium etc

M\rightarrow M^++e^-

Non metals are those substances which have tendency to gain valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and form negative ions called as anions.

Example: Sulphur, Chlorine

N+e^-\rightarrow N^-

Avogadro's law states that the _____ of a gas is directly proportional to the _____ of the gas when _____ stay the same
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The three blanks for this answer, are

1. volumen

2. moles

3. Temperature and pressure.

So, Avogadro's law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the moles of the gas when temperature and pressure stay the same

Explanation:

Imagine you have 10 moles of a gas which is contained in 50 L. How many moles of that gas, you will have if the volumen has been reduced to 10 L. (Of course, don't forget that T° and pressure are the same)

There is an equation like this, initial moles /initial volume = moles at the end/volume at the end, (Avogadro law for gases), so 10/50 =moles at the end/10.  When u operate, moles at the end = (10 x 10) / 50.

Moles at the end are 2. Did u get it?. Volumen has been reduced, also the moles.

What is the predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds: hydrogen fluoride (HF), carbon tetr
telo118 [61]

Answer:

HF - hydrogen bonding

CBr4 - Dispersion

NF3 - Dipole-dipole

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen is covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, chlorine nitrogen, oxygen etc. Hence the dominant intermolecular force in HF is hydrogen bonding.

CBr4 is nonpolar because the molecule is tetrahedral and the individual C-Br dipole moments cancel out leaving the molecule with a zero dipole moment hence the dominant intermolecular force are the dispersion forces.

NF3 has a resultant dipole moment hence the molecules are held together by dipole-dipole interaction.
