From the Graham's law of effusion;
R1/R2 = √MM2/√MM1
Molar mass of chlorine gas is 71
Therefore;
1.87= √ 71 /√mm1
= 1.87² = 71/mm1
mm1 = 71/1.87²
= 71/3.4969
= 20.3
Thus, the molar mass of the other gas is 20.3 , and i think the gas is neon
Answer:
K = [ HOCl ] . [HgO. HgCl2] / [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2
Explanation:
The law of Mass Action states that, at constant temperature, the rate of reaction is proportional to the active masses of each of the reactants.
The reaction above is a reversible reaction and the law of mass action also applies to it.
The rate of reaction from left-to-right reaction = r1 = k. [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2
Rate of reaction from right - to - left r2 = k. [hocl]^2 [HgO . hgcl2]
Then at equilibrium,
r1 = r2
k1/k2 = [HOCl ]^2 [HgO. HgCl2] / [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2 = K
where K is the equilibrium constant for the reaction.
Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is 
.
It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.
Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other.
Answer:
The central atom has 3 electron domains.
Explanation:
According to the Valence Shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) put forward by Gillespie and Nyholm in 1957, the shape of a molecule is determined by repulsion between all the electron pairs (electron domains) present in the valence shell.
The electron pairs or electron domains are known to position themselves as far apart in space as possible in order to minimize repulsions.
Hence, when the central atom of a molecule contains three electron domains, they are positioned at an angle of 120° from each other to minimize repulsions. Hence the answer.
