The polarity of a bond depends on the difference in electronegativities of the atoms involved in bonding. Greater this difference, greater is the polarity

1) In SCl2 we have the S-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: S = 2.5, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.5 = 0.5

2) In F2 we have the F-F bond

Electronegativity value: F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0-4.0 = 0

3) In CS2 we have the C-S bond

Electronegativity value: C = 2.5, S = 2.5

Difference = 2.5 -2.5 = 0

4) In CF4 we have the C-F bond

Electronegativity values: C = 2.5, F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0 -2.5 = 1.5

5) In BrCl we have the Br-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: Br = 2.8, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.8 = 0.2

Therefore, the increasing order of polarity is

F2 = CS2 < BrCl < SCl2 < CF4

At equilibrium, no chemical reactions take place. true or false

arsen [322]

False. At equilibrium, the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. The net concentration of both products and reactants won't change, but the reactions still take place.

Having difficulty understanding formulas involved. Determine the quantity (g) of pure CaCl2 in 7.5 g of CaCl2•9H2O.

Luda [366]

To determine the quantity of pure CaCl2 from the given amount of CaCl2.9H2O, we use the ratio of CaCl2 to CaCl2.9H2O. From the formula the ratio would 1 is to 1 We calculate as follows:

7.5 g CaCl2.9H2O (1 mol / 273.1215 g) ( 1 mol CaCl2 / 1 mol CaCl2.9H2O ) ( <span>110.98 g / 1 mol ) = 3.05 g CaCl2

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>
