Answer:

(a) Covalent bond. NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride)

(b) Ionic bond. LiCl (lithium chloride)

Explanation:

<em>(a) N and F</em>

Nitrogen and fluorine are nonmetals, with high and similar electronegativities, so they form covalent bonds, in which they share pairs of electrons to complete the octet in their valence shell. N has 5 valence electrons so it will form 3 covalent bonds while each Cl has 7 valence electrons so it will form 1 covalent bond. As a result, the empirical formula is NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride).

<em>(b) Li and Cl</em>

Lithium is a metal and Chlorine is a nonmetal. They have different electronegativities so they form an ionic bond, in which Cl gains 1 electron (7 valence e⁻) and Li loses 1 electron (1 valence e⁻). The empirical formula is LiCl (lithium chloride).

Plot your values of ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T and find the slope and y-intercept of the best fit line. Use the equation for the best fit l
labwork [276]

Answer:

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) ΔH∘ = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) ΔS∘ = 325.1 J/K

e) Option A is correct.

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Option D is correct. All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the first attached image to this question. This complete question has the data readings required to plot the graph.

The second attached image has the plotted graph and the regression analysis to obtain the line of best fit.

The equation of the line of best fit obtained is

y = -12629.507x + 39.099

Comparing the given expression for the question with the equation of a straight line

ln (K) = (−ΔH∘/RT) + (ΔS∘/R)

y = mx + c

y = In K

Slope = m = (−ΔH∘/R)

x = (1/T)

Intercept = c = (ΔS∘/R)

So, to answer the question now

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) Slope = (−ΔH∘/R)

(−ΔH∘/R) = -12629.507

But R = molar gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

ΔH∘ = 12629.507 × 8.314 = 105,001.721198 J = 105,002 J = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) Intercept = (ΔS∘/R)

(ΔS∘/R) = 39.099

ΔS∘ = 39.099 × 8.314 = 325.069086 J/K = 325.1 J/K

e) Do you expect the solubility of Borax to increase or decrease as temperature increases?

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Why was it necessary to make sure that some solid was present in the main solution before taking the samples to measure Ksp? Select the option that best explains why.

A. To make sure no more sodium borate would dissolve in solution.

B. To ensure the dissolution process was at equilibrium.

C. To make sure the solution was saturated with sodium and borate ions.

D. All of the above

Hope this Helps!!!

How much faster does ethane (C2H6) gas travel compared to chlorine gas?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{54 $\, \%$ faster }}

Explanation:

v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}

if temperature is constant.  

v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{M}

if we are comparing two gases,

\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}

Let chlorine be Gas 1 and ethane be Gas 2

Data:

M₁ =  70.91 g/mol

M₂ = 30.07 g/mol

Calculation

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} & = & \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{\dfrac{70.91}{30.07}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{2.358}\\\\& = & \mathbf{1.54}\\\end{array}\\\text{Ethane molecules travel at 1.54 times the speed of chlorine molecules}\\\text{or $\large \boxed{\textbf{54 $\%$ faster }}$ than chlorine molecules}

if a carbon atom is bonded to two hydrogen atoms and two carbon atoms which type of bond must exist between the carbon atoms​
zavuch27 [327]

Carbon to carbon bond is nonpolar covalent since the difference of their electronegativity’s is 0. Carbon has an electronegativity of 2.5. 2.5 - 2.5 is 0 making the bond between those two atoms nonpolar covalent. I hope I answered your question.
