What is the best definition of polar covalent bond?

2 answers:

8 0

A polar covalent bond is a specific type of covalent bond, where the distribution or the sharing of valence electrons among the atoms involved in the bond are not the same and or equal. There is a greater pull of electron density to one atom than that of the other causing atoms to experience a partial positive and negative charge.

The electronegativity difference is typically large between the atoms that show polar bonding.

The airbags that protect people in car crashes are inflated by the extremely rapid decomposition of sodium azide, which produces

Oxana [17]

Answer:

1. NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)

2. 79.3g

Explanation:

<em>1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid sodium azide (NaN₃) into solid sodium and gaseous dinitrogen.</em>

NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)

<em>2. Suppose 43.0L of dinitrogen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 13.0°C and pressure of exactly 1atm. Calculate the mass of sodium azide that must have reacted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.</em>

First, we have to calculate the moles of N₂ from the ideal gas equation.

$P.V=n.R.T\\n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{1atm.(43.0L)}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).286.2K} =1.83mol$

The moles of NaN₃ are:

$1.83molN_{2}.\frac{1molNaN_{3}}{1.5molN_{2}} =1.22molNaN_{3}$

The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol. The mass of NaN₃ is:

$1.22mol.\frac{65.01g}{mol} =79.3g$

A mixture containing 20 mole % butane, 35 mole % pentane and rest

notka56 [123]

Answer:

2.5 % butane, 42.2 % pentane and 55.3 % hexane

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the mass balance for each substance is given by:

$Butane:z_bF=y_bD+x_bB\\\\Pentane: z_pF=y_pD+x_pB\\\\Hexane: z_hF=y_hD+x_hB$

Whereas $y$ accounts for the fractions at the outlet distillate and $x$ for the fractions at the outlet bottoms. Moreover, with the 90 % recovery of butane, we can write:

$0.9=\frac{y_bD}{z_bF}$

So we can compute the product of the molar fraction of butane at the distillate by total distillate flow by assuming a 100-mol feed:

$y_bD=0.9*z_bF=0.9*0.2*100mol=18mol$

The total distillate flow:

$y_bD=18mol\\\\D=\frac{18mol}{0.95} =18.95mol$

And the total bottoms flow:

$F=D+B\\\\B=F-D=100mol-18.95mol=81.05mol$

Next, by using the mass balance of butane, we compute the molar fraction of butane at the bottoms:

$x_b=\frac{z_bF-y_bD}{B} =\frac{0.2*100mol-18mol}{81.05} =0.025$

Then, the molar fraction of pentane and hexane:

$x_p=\frac{z_pF-y_pD}{B} =\frac{0.35*100mol-0.04*18.95mol}{81.05} =0.422$

$x_h=\frac{z_hF-y_hD}{B} =\frac{(1-0.2-0.35)*100mol-(1-0.95-0.04)*18.95mol}{81.05} =0.553$

Therefore, the molar composition of the bottom product is 2.5 % butane, 42.2 % pentane and 55.3 % hexane.

NOTE: notice the result is independent of the value of the assumed feed, it means that no matter the basis, the compositions will be the same for the same recovery of butane at the feed, only the flows will change.

Regards.

Zn + 2HCI --> ZnCl2 + H2

Elena-2011 [213]

Moles= mass\ relative formula mass(Ar)
moles of zinc= 7.9/30= 0.263
so we have 0.263 moles of zinc, and you need twice the amount of chlorine so therefore 0.526moles of chlorine= 0.526x 17=8.942g of chlorine
i cba to work the rest out but the most reasonable answer is 0.24 mol however if you need to use working outs, use the formula i provided earlier

Carbon exists in nature as three isotopes. Given the atomic masses and relative abundance of the isotopes, what is the average a

Ivan

The most abundant carbon isotope is carbon-12.

The relative atomic mass of carbon is 12.011, which is extremely close to 12.0. This means that the masses C-13, and C-14 are practically negligible when contributing to the relative atomic mass of carbon.

the C-12 isotope makes up 98.9% of carbon atoms, C-13 makes up 1.1% of carbon atoms, and C-14 makes up just a trace of carbon atoms as they are found in nature.
