Which substance would have the highest melting point, based on electronegativity

Chemistry

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The substance with high electronegativity difference have high melting point.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Electronegativity:

                             It is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons.

  • Higher the electronegativity higher the potential to attract electron pair.
  • So element with high electronegativity difference in elements tend to acquire the partial ions, attracting each other strongly.
  • Hence more strong bonds substances would have highest melting points.

Electronegativity is the ability of an element to attract electrons towards itself during bonding. Compounds with a metal and nonmetal that have a great electronegativity difference would result to a much stronger intermolecular force. Its effect on the melting point is to increase it further because it takes greater energy to break these bonds. <em>So, the higher the electronegativity difference, the higher the melting point.</em>

Give structural formula of ethylene. What type of bond is found in between carbon and hydrogen? Why is the bond between carbon a
Sav [38]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The structure of ethylene is shown in the image attached. The two carbon atoms have a double covalent bond between them.

The two carbon atoms are sp2 hybridized. The bond between them is a covalent bond, there is one pi bond and one sigma bond between the carbon atoms. Between carbon and hydrogen, there are covalent bonds also. The covalent bonds are sigma bonds.

The pi bonds between carbon atoms is weaker than the sigma bonds between the carbon atoms. This is because, the side-by-side overlap the p orbitals in a pi bond is less effective than the end-to-end overlap of a sigma bond.

Is state change physical or chemical? Explain how you know.​
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:Physical

Explanation:

State Change is physical because it changes without it being chemically done. So when water changes from a liquid to a solid the state of it is changing. (Solid or Liquid or Gas)

Basically what is physically being changed with out a chemical.

How many molecules of oxygen are needed to make 3.5 oxygens of water?​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

57.6g

Explanation:

So, if in one mole of water, 16 g of oxygen atom is present. Then, in 3.6 moles of water, the mass of oxygen present will be 3.6×16=57.6g. Therefore, the amount of oxygen present in 3.6 g water is option (B)- 57.6 g.

If aluminum is diffused into a thick slice of silicon with no previous aluminum in it at a temperature of 1100˚C for 8 hours, wh
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

8.354 nanometers

Explanation:

To treat a diffusive process in function of time and distance we need to solve  2nd Ficks Law. This a partial differential equation, with certain condition the solution looks like this:

\frac{C_{s}-C{x}}{C_{s}-C_{o}}=erf(x/2\sqrt{D*t})

Where Cs is the concentration in the surface of the solid

Cx is the concentration at certain deep X

Co is the initial concentration of solute in the solid

and erf is the error function

Then we solve right side,

\frac{C_{s}-C{x}}{C_{s}-C_{o}}=\frac{1018atoms/cm3-1016atoms/cm3}{1018atoms/cm3}=0.001964

And we need to look up the inverse error function of 0.001964 resulting in: 0.00174055

Then we solve for x:

x=0.00174055*2*\sqrt{D*t} =0.00174055*2*\sqrt{2*10^{-12}cm^{2}/s*8h*3600s/h}=8.35464*10^{-7}cm

Look at the following enthalpy diagram. Select all that apply.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Option 2 and 4 are correct

Explanation:

The reactants in the attached image have more enthalpy and hence less stability as they are more reactive. Thus, Product is more stable than the reactants.

This is an addition reaction in which two reactants add up to form the product.

Very less activation energy is required as the reactants themselves are unstable, possess high energy and hence are very reactive.

Reactants have more energy than the products.
