I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)Explain why ionic compounds are always polar.

Chemistry
1 answer:
evablogger [386]3 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

Polar compounds are those that have an unequal sharing of electrons, causing one end to be more positively or negatively charged than the other end.

Ionic compounds are those that are made up of a positive ion and a negative ion. Clearly, we can see that if one ion is positive and the other is negative, then that would make one end of the compound more or less positively charged than the other end, which is exactly the definition of a polar compound.

That is why ionic compounds are always polar.

Due to the small and highly electronegative nature of fluorine, the oxyacids of the this element are much less common and less s
Molodets [167]

Answer:

HOFO = (0, 0, +1, -1)

Explanation:

The formal charge (FC) can be calculated using the following equation:

FC = V - N - \frac{1}{2}B

<u>Where:</u>

V: are the valence electrons

N: are the nonbonding electrons

B: are the bonding electrons

The arrange of the atoms in the oxyacid is:

H - O₁ - F - O₂

Hence, the formal charge (FC) on each of the atoms is:

H: FC = 1 - 0 - 1/2*(2) = 0            

O₁: FC = 6 - 4 - 1/2*(4) = 0        

F: FC = 7 - 4 - 1/2*(4) = +1

O₂: FC =  6 - 6 - 1/2*(2) = -1

We can see that the negative charge is in the oxygen instead of the most electronegative element, which is the F. This oxyacid is atypical.  

I hope it helps you!

Which object can electrically polarized
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:Static electricity works because objects which are otherwise "neutral" (in other words, objects with no net charge) can be polarized. An electric field, like one caused by a nearby charged object, can cause the charges inside of a neutral object — the protons and electrons — to move around a tiny bit.

How many grams in 11.9 moles of sulfur? Avogadro’s number: 6.02x1023 atoms = 1 mole Molar mass of sulfur: 32.06 g sulfur = 1 mol
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Mass = 0.37 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of sulfur = 11.9 mol

Mass of sulfur in 11.9 mol = ?

Molar mass of sulfur = 32.06 g

Solution:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

by putting values,

11.9 mol = mass/ 32.06 g/mol

Mass = 11.9 mol × 32.06 g/mol

Mass = 0.37 g
