Which of the following correctly describes the result of a voltage difference?

True or false the si in sih4 does not follow the octet rule because hydrogen is in an unusual oxidation stat

ExtremeBDS [4]

The statement is true. The octet rule refers to the general rule of thumb wherein atoms of main-group elements tend to bond with other atoms in such a way that each atom possesses eight electrons (octet) in their valence shell. They tend to form the same electronic configuration as the noble gases. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. One of which is silane, SiH₄. A hydrogen atom only has 1 valence electron and needs another electron to complete its energy level. This is unlike other atoms, for example, carbon which has 4 valence electrons and needs to form 4 covalent bonds to fill its energy levels. Thus, 4 hydrogen atoms need only 4 more electrons. This is given by the silicon atom which has 4 valence electrons. Therefore, when a silicon atom is bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms, the resulting molecule, SiH₄, is a stable one.

What is the molarity of a solution in which 250 grams of NaCl are dissolved in 2.9 L of water?

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

About 1.48 M.

Explanation:

The formula for molarity is mol/L.

So firstly, you must find the amount of moles in 250 grams of NaCl.

I do this by using stoichiometry. First, I find how nany grams are in a single mole of NaCl. This is around 58.44 grams/mole. Now that I know this, I can now use a stoich table. (250 g NaCl * 1 mol NaCl / 58.44 g NaCl). I plug this into my calculator.

I get that 250 grams of NaCl is equal to about 4.28 moles.

Now I just plug into the formula!

4.28 moles/2.9 L = about 1.48

I've attached a picture of my personal notes below which shows work I have done in similar equations.
