Seawater is composed of salt, sand, and water. is seawater a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture? explain

1 answer:

4 0

A mixture is said to be homogeneous if its composition is uniform throughout the mixture. They are referred to as solutions. On the other hand, heterogeneous mixture does not have uniform composition. The substances present in the mixture have visible difference or phases.

Sea water is composed of salt, sand and water. Here, salt and water form homogeneous mixture but due to the presence of sand, the mixture is heterogeneous. Salt dissolves in water and the solution has uniform composition but sand does not dissolve in water, even after vigorous mixing, after some time it settles at the bottom resulting formation of layers. Thus, sea water containing salt, water and sand is a heterogeneous mixture.

2. A chemical analysis of a sample provides the following elemental data:

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

C3 H6 O2

Explanation:

first divide their mass by their respective molar mass, we get:

30.4 moles of C

61.2 moles of H

20.25 moles of O

now divide everyone by the smallest one of them then we get

C= 1.5

H= 3

O= 1

since our answer of C is not near to any whole number so we will multiply all of them by 2

so,

C3 H6 O2 is our answer

SeF6 1. Lewis Structure 2. Perspective drawing 3. Number of atoms bonded to central atom 4. Number of non-bonding electron pairs

Anarel [89]

The answer is- $SF_{6}$ is octahedral in electronic and molecular geometry with 6 Fluorine atoms bonded to central atom S.

Lewis structures are the diagrams in which the valence electrons of the atoms of a compound are arranged around the atoms showing the bonding between the atom and the lone pair of electrons existing in the molecule.

Determine the molecular geometry of $SF_{6}$ .

Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory is commonly known as VSEPR theory and it helps to predict the geometry of molecules.
According to this theory, electrons are arranged around the central atom of the molecule in such a way that there is minimum electrostatic repulsion between these electrons.
Now, calculate the total number of valence electrons in $SF_{6}$ .

$Valence\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6}= Valence\ electrons\ in\ S +\ 6(Valence\ electrons\ in\ F)$

Valence electrons of S = 6

Valence electrons of F = 7

Thus, the valence electrons in $SF_{6}$ are-

$Valence\ number\ of\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6} = (6) + 6(7) = 48\ electrons.$

The Lewis structure of $SF_{6}$ is - (Image attached).
In the structure, the number of atoms bonded to central atom (S) = 6.
Number of non-bonding electron pairs on the central atom = 0 (as all the valence electrons are bonded to F).
Electronic geometry in case of 6 bond pairs is octahedral.
Molecular geometry us also octahedral with bond angles 90°.
Central atom is sp3d2 hybridised.
$SF_{6}$ is a non-polar molecule.
