How to find electronegativity differences

1 answer:

8 0

To calculate electronegativity, start by going online to find an electronegativity table. You can then assess the quality of a bond between 2 atoms by looking up their electronegativities on the table and subtracting the smaller one from the larger one. If the difference is less than 0.5, the bond is nonpolar covalent.

After 11.5 days, 12.5% of a sample of radon-222 that originally weighed 42g remains. What is the half-life of this isotope?

Bond [772]

Half-life is defined as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value. The equation to describe the decay is
Nt=N0(1/2) $^{t/t(1/2)}$ where N0 is the initial quantity, Nt is the remaining quantity after time t, t1/2 is the half-time. So work out the equation, t1/2 = t (-ln2)/ln(Nt/N0) = 11.5*(-ln2)/ln(12.5/100) = 3.83 days

To whoever helps me thank you so much have a wonderful day!

Schach [20]

Answer:

N and P

Explanation:

Anion:

When an atom gain the electrons anion is formed. The negative sign shows that atom gain electron because number of electron are greater than protons or we can say that negative charge becomes greater than positive charge.

Cation:

When atom lose electron cation is formed. The atom thus have positive charge because number of positive charge i.e protons are increased are greater than negative charge or electron.

In given problem N and phosphorus both can gain three electrons which means negative charge becomes greater that's why the extra electron gained by atoms are written as -3 and both form anion with charge -3.

while Al form cation with charge +3 Mg form cation with charge +2 and iodine and bromine both form anion with charge of -1.

Two grams of potassium chloride are completely dissolved in a sample of water in a beaker. This solution is classified as

Eddi Din [679]

The answer is (3) a homogeneous mixture. The difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixture is the degree of the mixture being mixed. Due to the completely dissolved and the dissolving ability of KCl, we can get the answer,

Which of the following is non polar covalent bond?

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

N-Cl

Explanation:

Look at the chart below. Since N-Cl bond has a electronegativity difference of (3.0-3.0) zero, they are non-polar.

A gas is contained in a cylinder with a volume of 2.9 L at a temperature of 32.7oC and a pressure of 645.3 torr. The gas is then

stealth61 [152]

Answer: 41 atm

Explanation:

Given that:

Original Volume of gas V1 = 2.9L

Temperature T1 = 32.7°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(32.7°C + 273 = 305.7K)

Pressure P1 = 645.3 torr

New Volume V2 = 0.23 L

New temperature T2 = 894.7°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(894.7°C + 273 = 1167.7K)

New pressure = ?

Then, apply the combined gas equation

(P1V1)/T1 = (P2V2)/T2

(645.3 torr x 2.9L)/305.7K = (P2 x 0.23L)/1167.7K

1871.37 / 305.7 = 0.23P2 / 1167.7

To get P2, Cross multiply

1871.37 x 1167.7 = 305.7 x 0.23P2

2185198.749 = 70.311P2

Divide both sides by 70.311

2185198.749/70.311 = 70.311P2/70.311

31079.045 torr = P2

Now, convert pressure in torr to atmosphere

Since 760 torr = 1 atm

31079.045 torr = Z

cross multiply

760 torr x Z = 31079.045 torr x 1 atm

Z = 31079.045 torr / 760 torr

Z = 40.89 atm (Round to the nearest whole number as 41 atm)

Thus, new pressure of gas is 41 atm
