How many core electrons does argon have?

Chemistry: Atoms and elements. having trouble figuring out how to find out what element these atoms represent any help will be a

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Elements are types of atoms that have a unique number of protons. In fact, from left to right, the periodic table is arranged by the number of protons that each element contains. oms make up matter. An atom is the smallest unit of matter that retains all of the chemical properties of an element.

What is the name of CuO? Explain how you determined the bond type and the steps you used to determine the naming convention for

yulyashka [42]

The name of CuO is copper II oxide and its bond type is ionic or electrovalent bond.

<h3>What is electrovalent bond?</h3>

An ionic or electrovalent bond is the type of chemical bond where two atoms or molecules are connected to each other by electrostatic attraction.

This electrostatic attraction is as a result of the transfer of electrons from the metallic element to the non-metal.

According to this question, CuO is a chemical compound consisting of two elements namely; copper and oxygen. The compound name is copper II oxide.

Copper as a metal transfers electrons to oxygen atoms, hence, an ionic bond is formed between the molecules.

Ethanol, C2H6O, is most often blended with gasoline - usually as a 10 percent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol. Ethanol is

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

The heat of combustion of octane = 1.308*10³ kcal/mol

Mass of octane = 463 grams

Molar mass octane = 114.23 g/mol

Molar mass ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles octane

Moles octane = mass octane / molar mass octane

Moles octane = 463 grams / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 4.05 moles

Step 3: Calculate energy of combustion of 4.05 moles octane

Combustion of 1 mol octane gives us: 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol

Combustion of 4.05 moles octane gives us 4.05 * 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol = <u>5.30 * 10³ kcal</u>

This means the combustion reaction of 463 grams of octane gives us 5.30 * 10³ kcal

Step 4:

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

OR in words: combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal energy

Moles ethanol = 463 grams / 46.07 g/mol

Moles ethanol = 10.05 moles

Since combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal

10.05 moles ethanol will give us = 10.05 * 326.7 = 3283.3 kcal = <u>3.28 * 10³ kcal</u>

<u />

5.30 * 10³ kcal > 3.28 * 10³ kcal

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

What causes atoms to form covalent bonds?

tino4ka555 [31]

Sharing of valence electrons.

Explanation:

In a covalent bonds, there is sharing of the valence electrons used in bonding between the two combining species.

The atoms taking part do not have a wide electronegativity difference between them and so they share the valence electrons to complete their octet and ensure their stability.

For the formation of this bond type, each of the atom requires a odd or unpaired electrons.
Covalent bonds are formed between atoms having zero or very small electronegativity difference.

A student places three ice cubes in a beaker and allows them to partially melt. if she measures the temperature of the water in

atroni [7]

She will most likely observe that the temperature does not change during melting because the heat absorbed is used to overcome intermolecular forces rather than to increase the kinetic energy of the particles if she measures the temperature of the water in the beaker.
