How are ionic bonds formed and what is the attractive force within an ionic bond

Chemistry
1 answer:
Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
6 0

Answer and Explanation:

<u><em>How are ionic bonds formed?</em></u>

  • Ionic bonds are formed as a result of a redox reaction.
  • <em>Formation of cations:</em> In which atoms of an element (metal) with low ionization energy give some electrons to reach stable electronic configuration.
  • <em>Formation of anions:</em> in which atoms of another element with high electron affinity accepts electrons to achieve  a stable electronic configuration.
  • <em>Example: NaCl</em>, the sodium atoms loss electron forming Na⁺ and the chlorine atoms gain electron forming Cl⁻, then the ions are attracted to each other with 1:1 ration forming the ionic compound NaCl.

Na + Cl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻ → NaCl

<u><em>What is the attractive force within the ionic bond?</em></u>

  • The attractive force within the ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged ions (cations, Na⁺) and the negatively charged ions (anions, Cl⁻).

If 28 grams of N reacts completely with 12 grams of H2, then how many
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Mass of NH₃ produced = 34 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of nitrogen = 28 g

Mass of Hydrogen = 12 g

Mass of NH₃ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ +  3H₂    →   2NH₃

Moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 28 g/ 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 1 mol

Moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 12 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 6 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen and nitrogen with ammonia.

                            H₂              :               NH₃

                            3                :                2

                            6                :             2/3×6 = 4 mol

                           N₂              :                NH₃

                            1                :                 2

Number of moles of ammonia produced by nitrogen are less thus it will act as limiting reactant.

Mass of ammonia produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  2 mol  ×  17 g/mol

Mass = 34 g

When dipentyl ether is treated with HI, what type of reaction occurs? both SN1 and SN2 SN2 E1 SN1 E2
masha68 [24]

Answer:

SN2

Explanation:

The first step of ether cleavage is the protonation of the ether since ROH is a better leaving group than RO-.

The second step of the reaction may proceed by either SN1 or SN2 mechanism depending on the structure of the ether. Methyl and primary ethers react with HI by SN2 mechanism while tertiary ethers react with HI by SN1 mechanism. Secondary ethers react with HI by a mixture of both mechanisms.

Dipentyl ether is a primary ether hence when treated with HI, the reaction with HI proceeds by SN2 mechanism as explained above.
