Why the bonds between nonmentals tend to be covalent

Chemistry
1 answer:
natita [175]2 years ago
7 0
Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.

1. How many moles of iron is needed to react with sulfur in order to produce 8.6 moles
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

17.2 moles of Iron are required

Explanation:

Based on the chemical reaction:

2Fe + 3S → Fe₂S₃

<em>2 moles of Fe react with 3 moles of S to produce 1 mole of Iron (III) sulfide</em>

<em />

Assuming and excess of sulfur, if we want to obtain 8.6 moles of Fe₂S₃ are required:

8.6 moles Fe₂S₃ * (2 moles Fe / 1mol Fe₂S₃) =

<h3>17.2 moles of Iron are required</h3>

Pick the correct pair of species that can form hydrogen bond with water. (A) CH, HCOOH (B) F, HCOOH (C) F .CH,OCH, (D) Both (B)
Xelga [282]

Answer:

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

Explanation:

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

The hydrogen bonds are formed when the hydrogen is found between two electronegative atoms such as oxygen (O), nitrogen (N) or florine (F).

O····H-O, F····H-O, O····H-N

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

- here methane CH₄ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- formic acid HCOOH can form hydrogen bonds with water

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

-both floride (F⁻) and formic acid can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

-  dimethyl-ether CH₃-O-CH₃ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- floride (F⁻) can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂

Determine the molar mass of CuSO4 (the solute) in a 1.0M aqueous solution of CuSO4
inna [77]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we could have two possible solutions:

A) If you are asking for the molar mass, you should use the atomic mass of each element forming the compound, that is copper, sulfur and four times oxygen, so you can compute it as shown below:

M_{CuSO_4}=m_{Cu}+m_{S}+4*m_{O}=63.546 g/mol+32.00g/mol+4*16.00g/mol\\\\M_{CuSO_4}=159.546g/mol

That is the mass of copper (II) sulfate contained in 1 mol of substance.

B) On the other hand, if you need to compute the moles, forming a 1.0-M solution of copper (II) sulfate, you need the volume of the solution in litres as an additional data considering the formula of molarity:

M=\frac{n_{solute}}{V_{solution}}

So you can solve for the moles of the solute:

n_{solute}=M*V_{solution}

Nonetheless, we do not know the volume of the solution, so the moles of copper (II) sulfate could not be determined. Anyway, for an assumed volume of 1.5 L of solution, we could obtain:

n_{solute}=1mol/L*1.5L=1.5mol

But this is just a supposition.

Regards.

Which of the following properly describes the movement of atoms as they represent the states of matter? Atoms making liquids hav
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Atoms making liquids have less attraction than solids, but more than gases

Explanation:

The attraction between atoms in different molecules in a solid is very strong due to strong intermolecular forces present in a solid. However, such intermolecular forces are weaker in liquids than in solids.

This implies that the solid has higher intermolecular forces of attraction compared to gases and liquids. Based on the negligible degree of intermolecular forces between them, a gas has the weakest intermolecular forces hence the atom has very minimal interaction between them.
