Elden [556K]

Answer:

100.52

Explanation:

from the ideal gas equation PV=nRT

for a given container filled with any ideal gas P and V remains constant.So T is also constant.R is as such a constant.

So n i.e no of moles will also be constant.

no of moles of Ar=3.224/40=0.0806

no of moles of unknown gas=0.0806

molecular wt of unknown gas=8.102/0.0806=100.52

For each of the following compounds, state whether it is ionic or covalent, and if it is ionic, write the symbols for the ions i
kupik [55]

Answer :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

All the polyatomic ions always form an ionic compound.

Polyatomic ions : It is a charged species that composed of two or more atoms and these charged species are bonded by the covalent bond.

For the given options:

Option A:  KClO_4

This compound is formed by the combination of potassium, K^+ which is a metal and ClO_4^- ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option B:  Mg(C_2H_3O_2)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of magnesium, Mg^{2+} which is a metal and C_2H_3O_2^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option C:  H_2S

Hydrogen and sulfur, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option D:  Ag_2S

This compound is formed by the combination of silver, Ag^{+} which is a metal and sulfur, S^{2-} which is a non-metal. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option E:  N_2Cl_4

Nitrogen and chlorine, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option F:  Co(NO_3)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of cobalt, Co^{2+} which is a metal and NO_3^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Why do solids exist ?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

A solid's particles are packed closely together. The forces between the particles are strong enough that the particles cannot move freely; they can only vibrate. As a result, a solid has a stable, definite shape and a definite volume. Solids can only change shape under force, as when broken or cut.
