Using electronegativity difference is a good guide to the ionic/ covalent nature. Large differences indicate greater ionic character, small differences more covalent character. The larger the difference in electronegativity the more ionic properties a bond is said to have. The smaller the difference in electronegativity the more covalent properties a bond is said to have. 
Ionic bonding is formed through electrostatic attraction between a cation and anion. Foe example, Sodium fluoride has ionic bonding because it is composed by sodium and Fluorine (a non metal). On the other hand, covalent bonding is characterized by atoms sharing pairs of electrons. For example; methane has covalent bonding; carbon has 4 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1; when they bond they have a total of 8 electrons and satisfies the octet rule.

Which of the following acids is the WEAKEST? The acid is followed by its Ka value.HF, 3.5 × 10^-4HNO2, 4.6 × 10^-4HCN, 4.9 × 10^
Mila [183]

Answer:

HCN

Explanation:

There are several factors that can tell us when an acid is stronger than another, which are the following:

1. The Polarity of the X - H Bond

2. Size of the X atom.

3. Charge on the acid.

4. Oxidation state of the central atom

5. Values of Ka and pKa.

From all of this factors, we can see that the exercise is already giving us values of Ka, and also we have different types of acid, not only with the form H - X

So, we will base the force of an acid by it's pKa value.

The pKa value which is calculated with the expression:

pKa = -logKa

pKa is a value that indicates how strong is the acid you are working with. This value can vary depending on factors such the charge of the acid. I f this charge can be easily distributed in resonance structures, the compound is more acidic, and therefore the pKa value is lower.

The lower the pKa, the more acidic the compound is.

So calculating the pKa on every structure we have:

HF: pKa = -log(3.5x10^-4) = 3.46

HNO2: pKa = -log(4.6x10^-4) = 3.34

HCN: pKa = -log(4.9x10^-10) = 9.31

HCOOH: pKa = -log(1.8x10^-4) = 3.74

HClO2: -log(1.1x10^-2) = 1.96

So according to all this values, we can conclude that the weakest acid is the HCN

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of chloroacetic acid and 0.27 mol of sodium chloroacetate in water sufficient to y
Sergio [31]

Answer:

c. chloroacetate ion

Explanation:

The chloroacetic acid, ClCH₂CO₂H, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³. When this weak acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClCH₂CO₂⁻ (From sodium chloroacetate) a buffer is produced. The addition of a strong acid as the HCl produce the following reaction

HCl + ClCH₂CO₂⁻ → ClCH₂CO₂H + Cl⁻.

Where the acid reacts with the chloroacetate ion to produce more chloroacetic acid

That means, the HCl reacts with the chloroacetate ion present in the buffer solution

Right answer is:

<h3>c. chloroacetate ion</h3>

(A)What type of cloud forms at high altitudes and is wispy and feathery.
posledela
A) Answer D. Clouds forming high in the atmosphere are referred to as cirrus, cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus. 

B) Clouds tend to form at higher altitudes because as<span> air rises, the moisture in it slowly reaches its saturation point and when this happens, tiny crystals of water start to condense and form clouds.

C) Precipitation: Water that falls to the ground from clouds, such as in rain, snow, sleet, or hail.</span>
