Which bond pair does not have a polar covalent bond? P – Cl O – H S – Cl H – Cl Cl – Cl

So,

A polar covalent bond is a bond between two atoms that has a low electronegativity difference (usually 0.1 < x < 1.9, which is kind of the border between nonpolar covalent and ionic, respectively).  The most prominent example of a polar covalent bond is water, where the oxygen atom has an electronegativity of 3.5 and the hydrogen atoms have electronegativities of 2.1.  The electronegativity difference is 3.5-2.1 = 1.4, which is still in covalent territory, but still a polar bond.  This is why lowercase delta's appear beside oxygen atoms in drawings.

Examining, the four options, we immediately see that option D is Cl-Cl.  A bond between two of the same atoms inevitably implies an electronegativity difference of zero, which means a nonpolar covalent bond: electrons are equally shared.  Anywhere you see two identical atoms bonding (except for metals), you will have a nonpolar covalent bond.

The correct answer is D.

The graph shows the volume of a gaseous product formed during two trials of a reaction. A different concentration of reactant wa
solniwko [45]

A: Trial 1, because the average rate of the reaction is lower.

The rate of reaction is the speed with which reactants are converted into products. It is also the rate at which reactants disappear and products appear.  The higher the rate of reaction, the greater the amount of product formed in a reaction.

If we look at the graph, we will realize that trial 1 produces a lesser amount of product than trial 2. This implies that the  average rate of the reaction in trial 1 is lower than in trial 2.

Lower average rate of reaction implies lower concentration of the reactants since the rate of reaction depends on the concentration of reactants.

Hence trial 1 has a lower concentration of reactants because the average rate of the reaction is lower.

Alkynes have what in<br> common with alkenes ?
jonny [76]

Answer:

Alkanes, alkenes and alkynes are simple hydrocarbon chains with no functional groups. Alkanes are identified because the carbon chain has only single bonds. Alkenes have at least one double bond and alkynes have at least one triple bond. The most common alkyne is ethyne, better known as acetylene.

Determine the molality of an aqueous solution that is 16.5 percent urea by mass
yarga [219]

Take a hypothetical sample of exactly 100 grams of the solution.  

(16g urea) / (60.06 g urea/mol) = 0.2664 mol urea  

((100 g total) - (16g urea)) = 84.0 g H2O = 0.0840 kg H2O  

(0.2664  mol) /0.0840  (kg) = 3.17143mol/kg = 3.18m urea
