ANEK [815]3 years ago

The correct answer is option 4, that is, an ionic compound.  

The mentioned features belong to an ionic compound. The ionic compounds exhibit strong bonds in between their atoms, that is, an ionic bond is the strongest molecular bond, this confirms that ionic compounds exhibit a high melting point.  

The ionic compounds do not transmit current, as they do not possess free electrons, like metals, thus, they are poor conductors as solid. The ionic compounds get dissolve in water and form ions that are the charges, which can move, making them good conductors as a liquid. The composition of the ionic compound is a set of crystals that makes them brittle and hard.

VA 19.75-g sample was heated by 12.35 calories. The specific heat of the sample is 0.125 cal/g°C. What was the initial temperatu
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

31.9 °C  

Explanation:

The formula for the heat q absorbed by an object is

q = mCΔT where ΔT = (T₂ - T₁)

Data:

q = 12.35 cal

m = 19.75 g

C = 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹

T₂ = 37.0 °C

Calculations

(a) Calculate ΔT

q = mCΔT

12.35 cal = 19.25 g × 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × ΔT

12.35 = 2.406ΔT °C⁻¹  

ΔT  = 12.35/(2.406 °C⁻¹) = 5.13 °C

(b) Calculate T₂

ΔT = T₂ - T₁

T₁ = T₂ - ΔT = 37.0 °C - 5.13 °C = 31.9 °C

The original temperature was 31.9 °C.

Draw the best Lewis structure for CH 3 -1. What is the formal charge on the C?
djyliett [7]

Answer :  The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, CH_3^{-1}

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in CH_3^{-1} = 4 + 3(1) + 1 = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge on carbon atom.

Formula for formal charge :

\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}

\text{Formal charge on C}=4-2-\frac{6}{2}=-1

The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.

A 4.0 L balloon has a pressure of 406 kPa. When the pressure increases to 2,030 kPa, what is the volume? *
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The new volume when pressure increases to 2,030 kPa is 0.8L

BOYLE'S LAW:

The new volume of a gas can be calculated using Boyle's law equation:

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

  1. P1 = initial pressure (kPa)
  2. P2 = final pressure (kPa)
  3. V1 = initial volume (L)
  4. V2 = final volume (L)

According to this question, a 4.0 L balloon has a pressure of 406 kPa. When the pressure increases to 2,030 kPa, the volume is calculated as:

406 × 4 = 2030 × V2

1624 = 2030V2

V2 = 1624 ÷ 2030

V2 = 0.8L

Therefore, the new volume when pressure increases to 2,030 kPa is 0.8L.
