The correct answer is statement 3, the difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen. The most polar bond is the one with the highest difference in electronegativity values between two atoms. In this case, the C-O bond.

Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between  carbon and oxygen is greater than that  between fluorine and oxygen.

Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.

Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5

Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5

Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0

Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0

Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.

Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

1) qrev/ reversible/ has only one particular value/ regardless of;

2) 1 mol of H₂(g) at 0ºC

3) a phase change/ remains constant/ increase

Explanation:

1) The change can occur in a reversible or an irreversible process. When the change is reversible, the system and the surroundings can be restored to their original state by exactly reversing the change. In an irreversible process, that is not possible.

The entropy variation (ΔS) is calculated only in the reversible process because, in the irreversible one, it's difficult to determine it. So, ΔS depends on qrev, which is the heat for the reversible process.

There is only one reversible isothermal path between two states, that's why it's easy to calculate ΔS for it.

The value of ΔS doesn't depend on the path, but only on the initial and the final states, so ΔS has only one particular value regardless of the path taken between states.

2) The entropy is the measure of the disorganization of a system, so when the molecules are more distant and vibrating, the entropy is higher (Sgas > Sliquid > Ssolid), and when the temperature increases, the entropy decreases (ΔS = qrev/T), so 1 mol of H₂(g) at 0ºC has the greatest entropy.

3) During a phase change, for a pure substance, the temperature remains constant, until all the substance changes for the other phase. The entropy is the measure of the disorganization of a system, so when the degrees of freedom and motion of the molecules increase, the system becomes more disorganized, so the entropy increases.

Determine how many liters of hydrogen adjusted to STP there are in a 50.0 liter steel cylinder if the pressure inside is 100.0 a
Dvinal [7]

Answer : The volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 4550 L.

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 100.0 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas at STP = 1 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 50.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 27.0^oC=273+27.0=300K

T_2 = final temperature of gas at STP = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{100.0atm\times 50.0L}{300K}=\frac{1atm\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=4550L

Therefore, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 4550 L.

When you breathe the first step is that your lungs expand. why is this step needed
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, and your lungs expand into it. The muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
