Chemistry
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Roughly C100 H140 N3 O

Explanation:

Gilsonite is a bituminous product that resembles shiny black obsidian.

It contains more than 100 elements.

Its mass composition varies but is approximately 84 % C, 10 % H, 3 % N, and 1 % O.

Its empirical formula is roughly C100 H140 N3 O.

1. Calculate the attractive bonding force for NaF and for MgO when the ions just touch. Based on the attractive bonding force, w
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The attractive force is negative and MgO has a higher melting point

Explanation:

From Couloumb's law:

Energy of interaction, E = k \frac{q1q2}{r}

where q1 and q2 are the charges of the ions, k is Coulomb's constant and r is the distance between both ions, i.e the atomic radii of the ions.

If you look at Coulomb's law, you note that in the force is negative (because q1 is negative while q2 is positive).

In addition to that, the compounds MgO and NaF have similar combined ionic radii, then we can determine the melting point trend from the amount of energy gotten

The melting point of ionic compounds is determined by 1. charge on the ions 2. size of ions. while NaF has smaller charges (+1 and -1), MgO (+2 and -2) has larger charges and greater combined atomic radii. This implies that the compound with greater force would have a higher melting point.

Hence the compound MgO would have a higher melting point than NaF.

Given the partial equation: NO3− Pb2 → NO2 Pb4 , balance the reaction in acidic solution using the half-reaction method and fill
Fed [463]

Answer : The balanced reaction in acidic solution is,

2NO_3^-+1Pb^{2+}+4H^+\rightarrow 2NO_2+1Pb^{4+}+2H_2O

Explanation :

The given partial equation is,

NO_3^-+Pb^{2+}\rightarrow NO_2+Pb^{4+}

First we have to separate into half reaction. The two half reactions are:

NO_3^-\rightarrow NO_2

Pb^{2+}\rightarrow Pb^{4+}

Now we have to balance the half reactions in acidic medium, we get:

NO_3^-+2H^++1e^-\rightarrow NO_2+H_2O       ............(1)

Pb^{2+}\rightarrow Pb^{4+}+2e^-     ............(2)

Now we have to balance the electrons of the half reactions. When we are multiplying the equation (1) by 2, we get

2NO_3^-+4H^++2e^-\rightarrow 2NO_2+2H_2O  ...........(3)

Now we have to add both the half reactions (2) and (3), we get the final balanced chemical reaction.

2NO_3^-+1Pb^{2+}+4H^+\rightarrow 2NO_2+1Pb^{4+}+2H_2O

what are the relative strengths of intermolecular forces compared to the forces between ions in a salt or the forces between met
Sophie [7]
There are two kinds of forces, or attractions, that operate in a molecule—intramolecularand intermolecular. Let's try to understand this difference through the following example.



Figure of towels sewn and Velcroed representing bonds between hydrogen and chlorine atoms

We have six towels—three are purple in color, labeled hydrogen and three are pink in color, labeled chlorine. We are given a sewing needle and black thread to sew one hydrogen towel to one chlorine towel. After sewing, we now have three pairs of towels: hydrogen sewed to chlorine. The next step is to attach these three pairs of towels to each other. For this we use Velcro as shown above.

So, the result of this exercise is that we have six towels attached to each other through thread and Velcro. Now if I ask you to pull this assembly from both ends, what do you think will happen? The Velcro junctions will fall apart while the sewed junctions will stay as is. The attachment created by Velcro is much weaker than the attachment created by the thread that we used to sew the pairs of towels together. A slight force applied to either end of the towels can easily bring apart the Velcro junctions without tearing apart the sewed junctions.

Exactly the same situation exists in molecules. Just imagine the towels to be real atoms, such as hydrogen and chlorine. These two atoms are bound to each other through a polar covalent bond—analogous to the thread. Each hydrogen chloride molecule in turn is bonded to the neighboring hydrogen chloride molecule through a dipole-dipole attraction—analogous to Velcro. We’ll talk about dipole-dipole interactions in detail a bit later. The polar covalent bond is much stronger in strength than the dipole-dipole interaction. The former is termed an intramolecular attraction while the latter is termed an intermolecular attraction.
