Answer : The correct option is, (A) $NO_2$

Explanation :

Ionic bond : It is defined as the bond which is formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom.

The ionic compound is formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Covalent bond : It is defined as the bond that is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms.

The covalent compound is formed between two non-metals.

(a) $NO_2$

It is a covalent compound in which nitrogen and oxygen are non-metals. The $NO_2$ is formed when one nitrogen atom share their electrons with two oxygen atoms.

(b) $LiCl$

It is an ionic compound in which lithium is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal. The $LiCl$ is formed by the complete transfer of electrons.

(c) $AlCl_3$

It is an ionic compound in which aluminum is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal. The $AlCl_3$ is formed by the complete transfer of electrons.

(d) $Na_2S$

It is an ionic compound in which sodium is a metal and sulfur is a non-metal. The $Na_2S$ is formed by the complete transfer of electrons.

Hence, the covalent compound is $NO_2$

Which step accurately describes how to measure the final burette volume?

8090 [49]

To accurately measure the final volume of a solution in a burette, it is important that you read of the measurement in the lower meniscus like for water and for substances like mercury you read it on the upper meniscus. This is the standard way of reading volumes in laboratory apparatus. Also, it should be that the apparatus standing vertically in a plain surface.

Answer:

ΔS° = 180.5 J/mol.K

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

The standard molar entropy of the reaction (ΔS°) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔS° = ∑np × S°p - ∑nr × S°r

where,

ni are the moles of reactants and products

S°i are the standard molar entropies of reactants and products

ΔS° = 4 mol × S°(NO(g)) + 6 × S°(H₂O(g)) - 4 mol × S°(NH₃(g)) - 5 mol × S°(O₂(g))

ΔS° = 4 mol × 210.8 J/K.mol + 6 × 188.8 j/K.mol - 4 mol × 192.5 J/K.mol - 5 mol × 205.1 J/K.mol

ΔS° = 180.5 J/K

This is the change in the entropy per mole of reaction.
