Answer:

Non metals are brittle solids.

Explanation:

The option A is correct,

Non metals are brittle solids.

It is the property of non metals. They can not be stretched into thin wire if stress is applied non metals brake down.

All other options are incorrect because,

B = Non metals are often malleable

It is the property of metals. Metals can be malleable into think sheets.

C = Non metals often conduct electricity.

It is the property of metals. Metals conduct electricity because of availability of free electrons.

D =  Non metals are often ductile.

It is the property of metals. They can stretched into thin wire.

Which is stronger- the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond stre
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

When chromium chloride, CrCl2, is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water decreases. ... The attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions is stronger, because the reaction is endothermic means the energy released in formation is less than the energy required in breaking bond.

The vapor pressure of water is 1.00 atm at 373 K, and the enthalpy of vaporization is 40.68 kJ mol!. Estimate the vapor pressure
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

Explanation:

To calculate \Delta H_{vap} of the reaction, we use clausius claypron equation, which is:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

P_1 = vapor pressure at temperature T_1

P_2 = vapor pressure at temperature T_2

\Delta H_{vap} = Enthalpy of vaporization  

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

1) \Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol

T_1 = initial temperature =363 K

T_2 = final temperature =373 K

P_2=1 atm, P_1=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\ln(\frac{1 atm}{P_1})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{363}-\frac{1}{373}]

P_1=0.69671 atm \approx 0.6970 atm

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

2) \Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol

T_1 = initial temperature =373 K

T_2 = final temperature =383 K

P_1=1 atm, P_2?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{1 atm})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{373}-\frac{1}{383}]

P_2=1.4084 atm \approx 1.410 atm

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

How many moles of calcium chloride are contained in a 333 gram sample?
Bogdan [553]

Answer & Explanation:

The molar mass of calcium chloride is 110.98 g/mol. We can use this information to solve this problem. We can set up our equation like this..

\frac{333 g(CaCl2)}{} *\frac{1mol(CaCl2)}{110.98g(CaCl2)}

Multiply straight across on the top and straight across on the bottom.

\frac{333}{110.98}

Now divide.

\frac{333}{110.98}=3.00

So, there are 3.00 moles of calcium chloride contained in a 33 gram sample which is answer choice D.
