What is the nature of the Ca-Cl bond in a molecule of calcium chloride (CaCl2) if the electronegativity value of calcium is 1.0

and that of chlorine is 3.16?

Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.

What pressure will be exerted by 25 g of CO2 at temperature of 25°C and a volume of .50 L?
Grace [21]

Answer:

P = 27.9 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO₂ = 25 g

Temperature = 25°C (25+273.15 K = 298.15 K)

Volume of gas = 0.50 L

Pressure of gas = ?

Solution:

Firs of all we will calculate the number of moles of gas,

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 25 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.57 mol

Pressure of gas :

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

P × 0.50 L = 0.57 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 298.15 K

P = 13.95 atm.L/ 0.50 L

P = 27.9 atm

Valeric acid, HC5H9O2 (Ka = 1.5 ✕ 10−5), is used in the manufacture of magnesium valerate, a nerve-calming agent. What is the hy
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

[H^+]=0.00332M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the dissociation of valeric acid as:

HC_5H_9O_2 \rightleftharpoons C_5H_9O_2 ^-+H^+

Its corresponding law of mass action is:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][C_5H_9O_2^-]}{[HC_5H_9O_2]}

Now, by means of the change x due to dissociation, it becomes:

Ka=\frac{(x)(x)}{0.737-x}=1.5x10^{-5}

Solving for x we obtain:

x=0.00332M

Thus, since the concentration of hydronium equals x, the answer is:

[H^+]=x=0.00332M

Best regards.
