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).

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Number of molecules = 1.8267×10^20

Explanation:

From the question, we can deuced that the gases behave ideally, the we can make use of the ideal gas equation, which is expressed below;

PV = nRT

where

P =pressure

V =volume

n = the number of moles

R is the gas constant equal to 0.0821 L·atm/mol·K

T is the absolute temperature

Given:

P = 6.75 atm;

T = 290.0 k,

; V = 1.07 cm³ = 0.001 L

( 6.75 atm)(0.00107 L) = n(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(290K)

n = 3.0335167*10^-4 moles

But there are 6.022×10²³ molecules in 1 mole,

Number of molecules = 1.8267×10^20

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Fossils, the shape of continents, the mid-ocean ridge system, sea floor sediment deposits, and the magnetism of rocks.

Explanation:

Fossils, the continent's shape, the mid-ocean ridge system, sea floor sediment deposits, and the magnetism of rocks on the sea floor are the evidences that support the theory of plate tectonics in the area. Fossils provides information to us when and where plants and animals once existed. Due to diverging plates, some life became isolated, and evolved into new species. Continental ‘fit’ through coastline matching. Some division of continents look as though they should fit together, e.g. South America and Africa.
