Answer : % ionic character is 0.20%

              Bonding between the two metals will be purely metallic.

Explanation: For the calculation of % ionic character, we use the formula

\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(X_A-X_B)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)

where X_A & X_B are the Pauling's electronegativities.

The table attached has the values of electronegativities, by taking the values of Al and Mn from there,

X_{Al}=1.61

X_{Mn}=1.55

Putting the values in the electronegativity formula, we get

\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(1.61-1.55)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)

                                               = 0.20%

Now, there are 3 types of inter atomic bonding

1) Ionic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms

2) Covalent Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond involving the sharing of electron pairs between 2 atoms.

3) Metallic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is an electrostatic force between the positively charged metal ions and delocalised electrons.

In Al_6Mn compound, the % ionic character is minimal that is \sim0.20% and there are two metal ions present, therefore this compound will have metallic bonding.

Write the cell notation for the voltaic cell that incorporates each of the following redox reactions:(a) Al(s) + Cr³⁺(aq) → Al³⁺
Sladkaya [172]

The cell notation for the given voltaic cell is as follows

Al(s) | Al³⁺(aq) || Cr³⁺ (aq) | Cr(s)

<h3>What is a voltaic cell?</h3>

The device in which electrons are transferred through an external source is known as a voltaic cell.

The electron flow of a Voltaic cell allows redox reactions to produce energy in the form of electricity.

It converts the energy of spontaneous redox reaction into electrical energy

An anode, a cathode, and a salt bridge are all parts of a voltaic cell's setup. The salt bridge serves to neutralize the system.

To write the cell notation, identify the oxidation and reduction reactions.

At the anode, oxidation takes place

Al(s) \longrightarrow Al^{3+} (aq) + 3e^-

At the cathode, reduction takes place

Cr^{3+} (aq) + 3e^- \longrightarrow Cr(s)

While writing cell notation, the anode is written on the left, and the cathode is written on the right

A single vertical line differentiates between the phases and a double vertical line represents the salt bridge.

Now, write the cell notation of the given Voltaic cell

Al(s) | Al³⁺(aq) || Cr³⁺ (aq) | Cr(s)

A balloon containing N2 has 1.70 moles and occupies 3.80L. What will the volume be if the number of moles is increased to 2.60mo
leonid [27]

Answer:

5.81L

Explanation:

N1 = 1.70 moles

V1 = 3.80L

V2 = ?

N2 = 2.60 moles

Mole - volume relationship,

N1 / V1 = N2 / V2

V2 = (N2 × V1) / N1

V2 = (2.60 × 3.80) / 1.70

V2 = 9.88 / 1.70

V2 = 5.81 L

The volume of the gas is 5.81L

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me
Burka [1]

Answer:

<h3>1)</h3>

Structure One:

  • N: -2
  • C: 0
  • O: +1

Structure Two:

  • N: 0
  • C: 0
  • O: -1

Structure Three:

  • N: -1
  • C: 0
  • O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

<h3>2)</h3>
  • All five C atoms: 0
  • All six H atoms to C: 0
  • N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}.

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

  • N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
  • This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
  • There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be 5 - 1 - 6 = -2.

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

<h3>1)</h3>

Structure One:

  • N: -2
  • C: 0
  • O: +1

Structure Two:

  • N: 0
  • C: 0
  • O: -1

Structure Three:

  • N: -1
  • C: 0
  • O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

<h3>2)</h3>

Similarly,

  • All five C atoms: 0
  • All six H atoms to C: 0
  • N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

If 8.00 mol of an ideal gas at stp were confined to a cube, what would be the length in cm of an edge of this cube?
MatroZZZ [7]
To solve this problem it is fundamentally, just look for the volume of the gas and convert it to cm3. At STP 1 mole = 22.4 liters. 8.00 moles x 22.4 liters/mole = 179.2 liters = 179,200 cm^3 Then. get the cube root of 179,200 cm^3. This would be equal to 56.38 cm and thus would be the length of the edge of this cube.
