Can arsenic be broken down by a chemical change

Chemistry
1 answer:
anygoal [31]3 years ago
7 0
Arsenic is a pure element. Elements (atoms) are the simplest building blocs excluding smaller elementary particles such as electrons, neutrons, quarks, protons etc. 

This means that Arsenic can not be broken down any further by chemical change, only nuclear decay can cause the breakdown of large elements into smaller ones. Chemical change would be the combination of multiple elements into a compound or the decomposition of a molecule/compound into pure elements or smaller compounds.

The lab just ran out of 1 M HCl that you need to complete the Benzillic Acid lab. The TA tells you there is 12 M HCl in the fume
Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.83 mL

Explanation:

Given data

  • Initial concentration (C₁): 12 M
  • Initial volume (V₁): ?
  • Final concentration (C₂): 1.0 M
  • Final volume (V₂): 10.0 mL

We can calculate the initial volume of HCl using the dilution rule.

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

V₁ = C₂ × V₂ / C₁

V₁ = 1.0 M × 10.0 mL / 12 M

V₁ = 0.83 mL

The required volume of the initial solution is 0.83 mL.

Which pair of atoms has the highest electronegativity difference?
zavuch27 [327]
The best way to accurately determine the pair with the highest electronegativity difference is by using their corresponding electronegativity values. For the each of the choices, the difference is:

A. H-S = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4
B. H-Cl = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
C. N-H = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
D. O-H = 3.5 - 2.1 = 1.4
E. C-H = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4

As show, D. has the highest difference. Without looking at their values, you can also determine the pair with the highest difference by taking note of the trend of electronegativity on the periodic table. Electronegativity increases as you go right a group and up a period. This makes oxygen the most electronegative element among the other elements paired with hydrogen.

Which of the following molecules would you expect to have a dipole moment of zero?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

CCl2=CCl2

Explanation:

Recall that the individual dipole moments in a symmetrical molecule cancel out each other thereby making the overall molecule to be non polar.

CCl2=CCl2 contain individual polar bonds but the molecule is highly symmetrical thus its dipole cancel out and the molecule has no overall dipole moment, hence CCl2=CCl2 has a dipole moment of zero .
