How does a conductivity apparatus test whether a solution has ionic or covalent substances in it? It fails to light up except in

homogeneous solutions. It lights up when the leads touch each other. Ions complete the flow of electrons to form a circuit. The covalent substances bond to the leads to prevent the lightbulb from lighting.

Covalent compounds are those which are made up by sharing of electrons between them and the electronegativity of the elements which form covalent compounds are nearly same that is they are generally non-polar in nature whereas ionic compounds are formed by complete transfer of electrons from one element to the other and thus resulting in formation of ions of opposite charges that is cation (with positive charge) and anion (with negative charge). There is a large difference in electronegativity of the element involved in the formation of ionic compounds. They are held together by electrostatic force of attraction between them.

The conductivity of a substance is determined by the flow of electric charge. When the charged particles move that are present in the ionic compounds only in the  conductivity apparatus they complete the circuit by the flow of electrons.

Hence, a conductivity apparatus test whether a solution has ionic or covalent substances in it as ions complete the flow of electrons to form a circuit.

Gaseous ethane, C2H6, burns in the presence of oxygen
Gnesinka [82]

Moles of Carbon dioxide(CO2) = 2

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2 C2H6 (g) + 7 O2 (g) —+ 4CO2 (g) + 6 H20 (g)

Required

moles of carbon dioxide

Solution

The reaction coefficient shows the mole ratio of the compounds in the reaction equation (reactants and products)

From the equation, mol ratio of C2H6 : CO2 = 2 : 4, so mol CO2 :

mol CO2 = (4/2) x mol  C2H6

mol CO2 = 2 x 1

mol CO2 = 2

An industrial-strength pipe cleaner has a molarity (M) ) of 7.0 a 0.60 liter container. To be safely used on the pipes in a home
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

1.68L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Initial Molarity (Mi) = 7M

Initial volume (Vi) 0.6L

Final Molarity (Mf) = 2.5M

Final Volume (Vf) =.?

Step 2:

Determination of the final volume of the solution.

This can be achieved as shown below:

MiVi = MfVf

Divide both side by Mf

Vf = MiVi /Mf

Vf = 7 x 0.6 / 2.5

Vf = 1.68L

Therefore, the new volume of the solution is 1.68L
