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.

If 5. 0 grams of kcl is dissolved in 500 ml of water, what is the concentration of the resulting solution?
Lady_Fox [76]

If 5.0 grams of KCl is dissolved in 500 ml of water, the concentration of the resulting solution will be 0.134M.

<h3>How to calculate concentration?</h3>

The concentration of a solution can be calculated by using the following formula;

Molarity = no of moles ÷ volume

According to this question, 5.0 grams of KCl is dissolved in 500 ml of water. The concentration is calculated as follows:

no of moles of KCl = 5g ÷ 74.5g/mol = 0.067mol

Molarity = 0.067mol ÷ 0.5L = 0.134M

Therefore, if 5.0 grams of KCl is dissolved in 500 ml of water, the concentration of the resulting solution will be 0.134M.

Nitrogen effuses through a pinhole 1.7 times as fast as another gaseous element under the same conditions. Estimate the other el
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

80.92, Krypton

Explanation:

<u>What is effusion?</u>

• It is a process where gas escapes through a pinhole (a very small hole) into a region of low pressure or vacuum

<u>Graham's law of effusion of </u><u>gas</u>

• states that at a given constant temperature and pressure, the rate of effusion of gases is inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses

\boxed{ \frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} =  \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{M_1} } }

<u>Calculations</u>

Nitrogen exist as N₂ at room temperature, thus its molar mass is 2(14)= 28.

Let the rate and molar mass of unknown gas be Rate₂ and M₂ respectively.

Since N₂ effuses 1.7 times as fast as the unknown gas,

Rate₁= 1.7(Rate₂)

\frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} = 1.7

1. 7 =  \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{28} }

Square both sides:

2.89  = \frac{M_2}{28}

Multiply both sides by 28:

2.89(28)= M₂

M₂= 80.92

<u>Identity of </u><u>gas</u>

The molar mass of 80.92 lies between Bromine and Krypton. However since Bromine exist as Br₂, the value of it's molar mass would be 159.8 instead. Hence, Bromine is eliminated.

If the gas is a diatomic element, the atomic weight is 80.92 ÷2= 40.46. Thus, we are now considering if Argon could be its identity. However, Argon is a noble gas and will not exist as a diatomic element. Argon is therefore eliminated too.

Thus based on the above reasoning, its probable identity is Krypton.

How long will it take a plane to go 800 miles if it’s traveling at an average speed of 650 miles per hour?
Naya [18.7K]

If there is NO wind resistance, just plain math, this is the answer.

To get the answer you would divide 800 by 650.

800/650 = 1.230769231 (exactly)

That would translate to exactly <span>1 hour 13 minutes and 50 seconds </span>
