As two atoms of fluorine combine to become a molecule of fluorine, a bond is formed as energy is released. A molecule is more stable at a lower eneergy level.

When two atoms of Florine combines, they share an electron pair to complete it's octet. This result is formation of single bond between two fluorine atoms. This process is exothermic in nature, and hence, heat is liberated during the process of bond formation.

Answer:

The percent composition of this compound is 94%

Explanation:

The reaction can be formed as

$2 \mathrm{Fe}+3 \mathrm{Cl}_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}$

$\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{\text { 3* Molar Mass of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}=\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Fe}}{2 * \text { Molar Mass of Fe }}$

$\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{3 *(2 * 35.5)}=\frac{3.56}{2 * 55.8}$

$\text { Weight of } C l_{2}=\frac{3.56 * 3 * 71}{2 * 55.8}=6.79 \mathrm{g}$

$\mathrm{n}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right) / \mathrm{M}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=6.79 / 71=0.1 \mathrm{m}$

$\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{Fe}) / \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{Fe})=3.56 / 55.8=0.06 \mathrm{m}$

Based on no. of iron reacted,

$\mathrm{n}(\text { moles of } \mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{n}\left(\text { moles of } \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)$

n = m/M

$\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)=\mathrm{n}^{*} \mathrm{M}=0.06^{*} 162.5=9.75 \mathrm{g}$

% composition of $FeCl_3$

= $(9.75 / 10.39)^{*} 100$

= 94%

Answer: 1. Ethylene is a stable molecule with two carbon atoms connected by a double bond. Polyethylene is made by the reaction of multiple ethylene molecules in the presence of a catalyst.

2. The term “plastics” includes materials composed of various elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, and sulfur.

3. Polyethylene (PE) is made by the reaction of multiple ethylene molecules in the presence of catalysts to break the double bond and connect the carbon atoms into a chain . The longer the chain, the higher the molecular weight. Polymers can have molecular weights in the millions.

My barometer is reading 1253 torr. What is the pressure in mmHg?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The pressure in mmHg is 1253 (option C)

Explanation:

Two quantities are directly proportional if when multiplying or dividing one of them by a number, the other is multiplied or divided by that number. In other words, the magnitudes are directly proportional when one magnitude increases and so does the other in the same proportion; or when one magnitude decreases and so does the other in the same proportion.

The rule of three or is a way of solving proportionality problems between three known values and an unknown value, which can be applied to directly proportional quantities as follows:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So $x=\frac{c*b}{a}$

where a, b and c are data and x is the unknown value to be calculated.

In this case, knowing that 1 Torr = 1 mmHg, the rule of three can be applied as follows: if 1 torr is equal to 1 mmHg, 1253 torr is equal to how many mmHg?

$pressure=\frac{1253 torr*1 mmHg}{1 torr}$
