How does electronegativity cause the polarity in water and, ultimately, enable water to form hydrogen bonds between other water

molecules?

Oxygen is more <u>electronegative</u> than Hydrogen 
                                  So . . . 
When the two form covalent bonds, oxygen pulls the electrons closer and farther from hydrogen
                                   So . . .
The water molecule is <u>polar</u>, with oxygen more negative and hydrogen more positive.
                                   So . . .
Since opposites attract, the more negative oxygens attract the more positive hydrogens of other water molecules, forming the <u>hydrogen bonds.</u>

2. How many grams of zinc will be formed if 32.0 g of copper reacts with zinc nitrate? Copper(I)nitrate is the other product.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

16.46 g.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometry problem.
  • We should write the balance equation of the mentioned chemical reaction:

<em>2Cu + Zn(NO₃)₂ → Zn + 2Cu(NO₃).</em>

  • It is clear that 2.0 moles of Cu reacts with 1.0 mole of Zn(NO₃)₂ to produce 1.0 mole of Zn and 2.0 moles of Cu(NO₃).
  • We need to calculate the number of moles of the reacted Cu (32.0 g) using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass</em>

  • The no. of moles of Cu = mass / atomic mass = (32.0 g) / (63.546 g/mol) = 0.503 mol.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

2.0 moles of Cu produces → 1.0 mole of Zn, from the stichiometry.

0.503 mole of Cu produces → ??? mole of Zn.

  • The no. of moles of Zn produced = (1.0 mol)(0.503 mol) / (2.0 mol) = 0.2517 mol.

∴ The grams of Zn produced = no. of moles x atomic mass of Zn = (0.2517 mol)(65.38 g/mol) = 16.46 g.

One sound is loud and another is quieter. What must be different about these two sound waves?
tankabanditka [31]
Loudness of the sound depends on the "Amplitude" as loudness is different for two waves, their Amplitude must be different

In short, Your Answer would be "Amplitude"

Hope this helps!
