Answer:

B) CH3CH2CH2F

Explanation:

All the other compounds listed among the options are capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water except CH3CH2CH2F.

Recall that hydrogen bonds are formed when hydrogen is directly bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, sulphur, et cetra.

Such bonds are not present in CH3CH2CH2F, rather fluorine is bonded to carbon to give a halogenoalkane. This compound will display the least solubility in water.

vichka [17]

Answer:

5.41 ×10⁻²²

Explanation:

We were told right from the question that both the Zinc ions and the Zinc oxide adopts a face-centered cubic arrangement.

Then, the number of ZnO molecule in one unit cell = 4

The standard molar mass of ZnO = 81.38g

Avogadro's constant = 6.023 × 10²³ mole

∴

The mass of one unit cell of zinc oxide can be calculated as:

= $\frac{4*81.38}{6.023*10^{23}}$

= 5.40461564×10⁻²²

≅ 5.41 ×10⁻²²

∴ The mass of one unit cell of zinc oxide = 5.41 ×10⁻²²

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

% yield = 82.5%

Explanation:

HgO + 2Cl₂ → HgCl₂ + Cl₂O

Our reactants are:

HgO and Cl₂

Our products are:

HgCl₂ + Cl₂O

We do not have information about moles of reactants, but we do know the theoretical yield and the grams of product, in this case Cl₂O, we have produced.

Percent yield = (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100

Theoretical yield is the mass of product which is produced by sufficent reactant. We replace data:

% yield = (0.71 g/0.86g) . 100 = 82.5%
