Answer:

The F₂ molecule is formed by single bonds alone.

Explanation:

The octate rule dictates that atoms have a preference to have 8 electrons in their valence shells. Considering this rule we can analyse how the electrons are distributed in the molecules and see how the atoms bond to obbey the rule.

The fluorine atom has 7 electrons in its valence shell. This means that it needs one more electron to reach stability. Therefore, when two fluorine atoms combine, they share one electron each, forming a single bond.

The atoms of the other molecules need more than one electron to reach the octate, therefore they need to share more electrons, forming double and triple bonds.

VMariaS [17]

<span>Answer: 0.070 m/s

Explanation:

1) balanced chemical equation:

given: 2HBr(g) → H2 (g)+Br2(g)

2) Mole ratios:

2 mol HBr : 1 mol H2

3) That means that every time 2 moles of HBr disappear 1 mol of H2 appears.

That is, the H2 appears at half rate than the HBr disappears.

∴ rate of appearance of H2 = rate of disappearance of HBr / 2 = 0.140 m/s / 2 = 0.070 m/s, which is the answer.</span>

What is the flow rate? How is it measured ?

vlabodo [156]

“Flow is the volume of fluid that passes in a unit of time. In water resources, flow is often measured in units of cubic feet per second (cfs), cubic meters per second (cms), gallons per minute (gpm), or other various units.”

Show how water can serve as a base by showing the chemical equation of water reacting with hydrochloric acid. g

goldfiish [28.3K]

So, water reacts with hydrochloric acid in the following formula

H2O + HCl —-> H3O+ + Cl-

We can visualize that when the two react, the hydrogen ions is taken on by the water molecule. This satisfies one of the definitions for a base

Bronsted acids = anything that donates a proton (H+ ion)

Bronsted bases = anything that accepts a proton (H+ ion)

So, as we can see, that is exactly what is happening. The Cl- and H+ detach and then the water takes on that extra H+.

H3O+ is what we call a hydronium ion

Calculate the number of milliliters of 0.587 M NaOH required to precipitate all of the Ni2+ ions in 163 mL of 0.445 M NiBr2 solu

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

We need 247 mL of NaOH

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molarity of NaOH = 0.587 M

Volume of 0.445 M NiBr2 solution = 163 mL = 0.163 L

Step 2: The balanced equation

NiBr2(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) Ni(OH)2(s) + 2NaBr(aq)

Step 3: Calculate moles of NiBr2

Moles NiBR2 = Molarity NiBR2 * volume

Moles NiBR2 = 0.445 M * 0.163 L

Moles NiBR2 = 0.0725 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of NaOH

For 1 mol NiBr2 consumed, we need 2 moles NaOH

For 0.0725 moles NiBR2, we need 2* 0.0725 = 0.145 moles NaOH

Step 4: Calculate volume of NaOH

Volume = moles NaOH / Molarity NaOH

Volume = 0.145 moles / 0.587 M

volume = 0.247L = 247 mL

We need 247 mL of NaOH

KengaRu [80]

For cm to m, you need to divide by 100 to get m:
26cm/100= 0.26m

For hr to min, you need to multiply by 60 to get min:
4hr x 60= 240min

For km to m, you need to multiply by 1000 to get m:
3.25km x 1000= 3250m

For ft to in, you need to multiply by 12 to get in:
5ft x 12=60in

So we have:
0.26m
240min
3250m
60in
