<h2>Answer:</h2>

A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Chemical bonds are formed by gaining, yielding or sharing electrons to reach stable electronic configurations such as those of noble gases. Electropositive atoms give up electrons to complete the most stable configuration, leaving them with a negative charge defect.

If 2.68 g of benzaldehyde are involved with the mixed aldol condensation reaction, how many moles of benzaldehyde are present? R

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles

Explanation:

The molecular formula of benzaldehyde is C₇H₆O

Its molecular mass is calculated from the atomic masses of the constituent atoms.

C = 12.0 g: H = 1.0 g; O = 16.0 g

Molecular mass = ( 12 * 7) + (1 * 6) + (16 * 1) = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of substance = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance

mass of benzaldehyde = 2.68; molar mass = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of benzaldehyde = 2.68 g/ 106 g/mol = 0.0253 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using Dalton's law of partial pressure

P total pressure = Pressure of helium + Pressure of neon + Vapor pressure of water

P = 28.3 mmHg, Pressure of helium = 381 mmHg, Vapor pressure of water at 28°C

791 mmHg - 381 mmHg - 28.3 mmHg = Pressure of neon

Pressure of neon = 381.7 mmHg
